Amazon Prime Video has renewed Four More Shots Please!, its Indian comedy series, for season 2, the streaming service claimed to the media in an interview. This comes more than 4 months after its launch in late January. The primary group of Kirti Kulhari, Sayani Gupta, Maanvi Gagroo, and Bani J will come back to reprise their respective roles of Anjana Menon, Damini Rizvi Roy, Siddhi Patel, and Umang Singh together with the supporting group of Lisa Ray, Prateik Babbar, Neil Bhooplalam, Milind Soman, Amrita Puri, and Simone Singh.
There will be some new cast inclusions for season 2 of Four More Shots Please!, although Amazon did not disclose them just yet. Ishita Moitra and Devika Bhagat will carry on writing the dialogue and scripts, respectively, although Nupur Asthana (Bewakoofiyaan) will now handle the directing responsibilities thereby restoring Anu Menon.
Four More Shots Please! was criticized by most viewers and critics upon its launch on Prime Video. We criticized it for lacking nuance, dubbed it shallow for its “pre-adult mentality,” not trusting the users, and being not able to process the powerful concepts it brought to the table, as it normally failed at everything in its first season it set out to do. On IMDb, the rating aggregator, Four More Shots Please! is rated 5.2 from more than 2,500 member votes out of 10. The series has a long way to go to renovate itself in the second season, which Amazon claims will “see the 4 women make radical choices in career, love, and friendship. Their decisions will put them in hard situations and doubt their inner being but will eventually redefine their lives.”
“Season 1 of Four More Shots Please! marked the advent of an era of rejoicing females for who they are, not who community believes they must be,” Asthana claimed to the media in an interview. “It was addictive, delightful, and viewers had front-row seats to the modern journey of the four flawed, fabulous characters. I am excited to be charged with the accountability of visually making the world of the 4 best buddies and to operate with the ace group at Prime Video and Pritish Nandy Communications! The almost all-women production crew and writer’s room is abuzz with ideas on how their tales develop from here. The second season will surely see a lot of new changes in the lives of the teen females, following the outcome of the finale of the first season.”

He said, “The show was appreciated for its bold, fresh, and unapologetic take on modern Indian females and got an overwhelming response.”
