You may have seen Jojo in only one scene in season 1, but be prepared to be floored by her this season. Surveen Chawla, who plays this daredevil character, revealed, "Jojo is somebody who's not afraid of Gaitonde - she is just amazing. And in season 2, I think you're going to find out why. She has a tremendous impact on Gaitonde's life in every way."

Elnaaz Norouzi, who played Zoya Mirza in the first season of Sacred Games had to go on a liquid diet to shed a few pounds for her bikini act in the second season. Elnaaz revealed in an interview with mid-day, "I was told that I had a few bikini shots in the second season of the show, but wasn't certain about when that schedule was planned. While I had assumed it would be shot in December, I learnt that the makers were planning to can them during our ongoing schedule." With only three days to whip herself into shape, Norouzi resorted to drastic measures. "I took to a water and green tea diet, and gave up all foods containing carbohydrates. I did, however, eat fruits for breakfast, lunch and dinner."
