Maamla Legal Hai actor Anant V Joshi says it’s a big deal that the courtroom comedy was greenlit for a second season, when bigger shows have been cancelled. He added that he has been confident about the second part’s success since the day he read its script.

"Expect the unexpected,” is Anant V Joshi’s message to the audience a day ahead of the release of Maamla Legal Hai’s second season. The actor, who plays the manager of Patparganj District Court in the Netflix comedy series, has been confident about the second part’s success since the day he read its script. “When I read it, it left me with the feeling that the audience will definitely like the second season because it has evolved so well,” he shared.
Unfortunately, though, a show’s popularity is not the only criterion to greenlight its second instalment. Netflix India reportedly cancelled some of its popular series despite their acclaimed opening seasons.

Maamla Legal Hai, thankfully, stands in contrast. Barring Ravi Kishan, the first season not only featured actors who had previously portrayed smaller parts, but also had a niche premise. Yet, these elements came together to make a hit offering.
For Joshi, it’s a big deal that the streamer backed the niche show, particularly its actors, the second time around. He reasoned, “Since we got a lot of unexpected love for the first season, hopes were high that season two will be made. But things [around] are changing so fast. For [a series] to have a subsequent season and then for the platform to even invest more faith in the cast is a big deal. We aren’t among those actors, who do big-budget movies. Where we all meet collectively is that we [support] good writing.”
