Special Ops 2 Trailer: Kay Kay Menon is back as RAW officer Himmat Singh to prevent cyber-terrorism, Watch
On what fans can expect from 'Special Ops 2', Neeraj Pandey, in a press note, said, 'This season reflects the times we live in, where the enemy doesn't announce their arrival. The new-age warfare has altered everything we know about threat, security, and sacrifice. Special Ops 2 is about the war we don't see, until it hits home. It's a reminder that in today's world, the greatest battles are fought without a single bullet fired, but the damage runs just as deep.'
Kay Kay Menon also opened up about reprising his iconic character of Himmat Singh. 'Himmat Singh has always fought with grit, intellect, and instinct. But this time, the war isn't visible. The stakes are bigger, the threats more unpredictable and that made this season both relevant and deeply personal to portray. There's a quiet burden Himmat carries of duty, of sacrifice, of knowing more than he can say. This chapter allowed me to explore not just the strategist, but the man behind the mission, the father, the patriot, the constant protector.'
Director Shivam Nair added, 'With Special Ops 2.0, we've truly raised the bar–in scale, storytelling, and intensity. This season dives into a world where intelligence operations collide with the fast-changing landscape of AI, digital warfare, and cybersecurity. It's not just thrilling–it's timely.
Reuniting with Neeraj Pandey has been creatively rewarding, and together, we've built something that feels both urgent and cinematic.'Karan Tacker also shared how his character of Farooq Ali has evolved over the years.'Farooq has evolved and so has the mission. This season forced us to think beyond guns and disguises. The tension lies in not knowing where the next hit will come from because the enemy is invisible. I'm incredibly proud to be back'.
Tahir Raj Bashin, who will be seen as an antagonist in the show, said, 'Joining the world of Special Ops has been an electricfying adrenalin rush. This role pushed me emotionally and physically. Speaking of the character, what makes this antagonist exciting to portray is how layered and rooted in the real world he is. He doesn't need guns, he uses code, data, and people's blind trust. That's what makes him truly dangerous! He doesn't belong to fiction, he exists in the world we live in today'.
'Special Ops 2' will be out out on JioHotstar on July 11.

Maa Day 5 India Box Office: Kajol led supernatural-drama sees a slight surge due to Discount Tuesday; Nets Rs 2.75 crore
Maa, directed by Vishal Furia and starring Kajol, Ronit Roy, Indraneil Sengupta and others, grew in collections from Monday on Tuesday, as the movie managed Rs 2.75 crore. The growth for the movie has come due to the 'Discount Tuesday' offer where tickets for the movie in most theatres are available at prices of Rs 149 or under. With this, the 5 day total of Kajol 's movie stands at Rs 22.75 crore. The Day Wise Net India Collections Of Maa Are As Under Maa Heads For A Rs 27 Crore Net Week 1 Maa shall see a customary drop in collections on Wednesday as ticket prices return to normal weekday levels, leading to less footfalls than on Tuesday. The week 1 should end in the Rs 26.5 - 27 crore net range, which is quite alright for a film spearheaded by Kajol, playing alongside Sitaare Zameen Par and F1. Had the film not had stiff competition in week 2, it would have actually been seen as a good first week, as a Rs 40 crore plus lifetime net total would more or less be certain. Now that Dino and Jurassic World are entering the box office arena, even Rs 35 crore will be difficult, despite a certain acceptance. Maa Is A Pricey Film With Its Economics In Place Maa is a pricey film, but the costs are in check. The non-theatrical rights have been sold at premium rates because the film was marketed as a story linked to the world of Shaitaan. The Rs 18-20 crore worth of global share will add to the film's revenues. Kajol's Upcoming Movie Projects After Maa, Kajol will be seen in Sarzameen, co-starring Prithviraj Sukumaran and Ibrahim Ali Khan. The movie will stream on JioHotstar from 25th July, 2025. Kajol's next after Sarzameen is not confirmed. Maa In Theatres Maa plays in theatres now. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates on Kajol and Maa.
