The trailer begins with Anil’s character Jai Singh Rathore who is in a rehab and haunted by his past. The Anti-Terrorism Squad agent may have put terrorist Roshan Sherchan (Ashish Vidyarthi) in prison in the first season but it took a toll on his personal life.

However, Mumbai is faced with a new threat -- a virus that can destroy the city – and the Prime Minister (played by Neil Bhoopalam) gets Jai out of the rehab and right in the middle of the action.

The trailer has some slick action and many new faces like Suveen Chawla and Sikander. In fact, talking about the stunts in the show, Anil had said earlier: “My body is all bruised. I had to go to a physiotherapist as well. In fact, some of the stuntsmen also got injured, but everyone is fit to work relentlessly.”
