ZOYA MIRZA SACRED GAMES SERIES

It was one of several things that felt like had been swept under the carpet because Sacred Games season 2 had no time to touch upon, let alone explore in detail and with nuance. If so, the point didn't come across as it was meant to. Or maybe it was just an eleventh-hour attempt at socio-political commentary by the show's writers, on how the division of British India decided the fate of future generations. Sacred Games 2 also strongly hinted that Sartaj is related by blood with terrorist Shahid Khan (Ranvir Shorey), with the finale cold open - involving Shahid's mother and Sartaj's mother looking at an old photo - showing that their family was separated during the Partition. We also know what (partly) happened between Sartaj and ex-wife Megha (Anupriya Goenka).

Two men with God complexes, fit for each other. We now know what happened between Gaitonde and Guruji (Pankaj Tripathi): sex, drugs and murder, in short. (Though if you've seen enough movies and TV in your life, you know where it goes.) Sacred Games 2 did answer a lot of other things, for what it's worth.

Sacred Games fans had a lot of questions coming into season 2, but the Netflix series opted to not answer one of the biggest - if not the biggest - in the finale, leaving viewers in the dark about whether Sartaj Singh (Saif Ali Khan) actually managed to save the city, as Ganesh Gaitonde (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) had instructed him to last year.
