Masaba Gupta and Neena Gupta attempt to manage work and love in the teaser for Masaba Masaba 2

On July 29, Netflix will release Masaba Masaba season 2, bringing back Masaba Gupta and Neena Gupta. As they attempt to manage their job and love lives, the real-life mother-daughter team—who also portray mother and daughter in the web series—will encounter a new set of difficulties. On Saturday, the official trailer for the newest season of Masaba Masaba was released. She’s been a princess, a queen, and now it’s time for her to be a king, Masaba wrote in a caption for the photo she shared on Instagram.

In this lighthearted, fictitious look at Neena and Masaba’s life in fashion and movies, they portray fictionalised versions of themselves. Masaba Gupta, an actor-designer who portrays a fashion designer in the series, is shown striving for both love and work as she confronts fresh highs and new lows in the nearly two-minute clip. She makes the claim that she wants “to be the king” quite early on in the trailer. She even informs Neena that she has made the decision that she would no longer have any males in her life—just work.

The designer is attempting to retake control of her personal life while creating a brand-new collection and navigating new (and previous) love interests. Armaan Khera’s Fateh, her customer who flirts with her, is partnering Neil Bhoopalam’s Dhairya Rana, her investor-turned-love interest, in trying to win over Masaba’s affection. Masaba is creating the attire for his nuptials.

Neena is currently seeking an actor to play the opposite of her in a new programme in which she is the lead actor. Ram Kapoor enters. However, it appears that the two are involved in more than simply their jobs. Masaba advises Neena to get her hormones examined because she was acting “extremely thirsty” in a certain scene.

Sonam Nair is the director of the second season of the Netflix series. The new cast members are Kusha Kapila, Kareema Barry, and Barkha Singh in addition to Ram and Arman. Masaba Masaba’s first season, which made its Netflix premiere in August 2020, was well-received by both critics and viewers.

HBO defends JK Rowling’s involvement in Harry Potter series despite problematic stance on transgender community

JK Rowling, whose Harry Potter book franchise gave Warner Bros a blockbuster film franchise, is also associated with its upcoming HBO series.

JK Rowling has remained decidedly steadfast on her controversial stance on the transgender community. In a statement to Variety, HBO explained why the author is still involved in its upcoming series on Harry Potter despite her problematic gender politics.

What HBO said

“We are proud to once again tell the story of Harry Potter — the heartwarming books that speak to power of friendship, resolve and acceptance. JK Rowling has a right to express her personal views. We will remain focused on the development of the new series, which will only benefit from her involvement,” HBO’s statement stated.

It also added that its parent company Warner Bros “been working with JK Rowling and in the Harry Potter business for over 20 years” and “her contribution has been invaluable.” The report also states that HBO chief Casey Bloys informed the media at an event on November 12 that JK Rowling was “very, very involved in the process selecting the writer and the director,” and her anti-trans statements “haven’t affected the casting or hiring of writers or productions staff.”

A couple of days before that, Rowling had shared a screenshot of a tweet by an X user who wrote, “My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined” when the author had revealed that she’s “very involved” in the Harry Potter series. Rowling wrote along with the screenshot, “I’ve only just seen this response to me saying I’m very involved in the Harry Potter TV show and I think I’ve pulled something laughing.”

About Harry Potter series

Warner Bros launched an open casting call for the leads Harry, Hermoine and Ron, who were played by Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, respectively, in the eight-part movie franchise.

The series will most likely go ahead with newcomers for the top three characters and mix it with veterans for the adult cast, like the movie franchise, which featured Richard Harris as Dumbledore and roped in Michael Gambon after his death. Late star Maggie Smith played Professor McGonagall, and Alan Rickman starred as Professor Snape.

Mark Rylance, 64, who won an Academy Award for best supporting actor in 2016 for his work in Steven Spielberg’s Bridge of Spies, is reportedly at the top of the casting wishlist to play Dumbledore in the Harry Potter series.
