It seems that Bridgerton Season 2 has not gone down well with Indian viewers, who have taken to Twitter to express their disappointment with the show’s poor representation of Indian culture. The series, which is set in India, features a white actor playing the role of an Indian character, and many viewers feel that this is a step backward for Indian media.
The show’s Twitter page has been full of comments from viewers, many of whom feel like the show has played into the white savior trope, with some even comparing the representation to that seen in Disney’s Aladdin. One Twitter user wrote “I didn’t know Disney was making Indian series now. Or is it just another British show set in India?” While another added: “Next we’ll have a white actor play Aladdin.”
Do you know about the release date of Bridgerton Season 2:
This series will be released on 25 March 2022. Also, the series has been released in the Indian language. The series has been released on DVD as a whole and each season as two separate disc collections.
BFI Film Academy Award-winning production company, The Other Cinema, have announced that they have secured the right to produce their own version of Bridgerton Season 2 : called “Bridgerton Season 2: The Other Way”. BFI Film Academy Award-winning director, Asif Kapadia will helm this shoot, which is rumored to be set in Delhi during the 1930s.
Here is the plot of Bridgerton Season 2 discussed:
The series will be set in Mumbai, the capital city of India, and will feature a white actor playing the role of an Indian character. The show will explore whether such a character is possible in modern-day India.
The series is also rumored to feature an interracial romance between the English actor who plays the Indian character and a British girl. The show is being produced by Indian-origin Miriam Gonzales as part of her mission to improve representation in British television and film, via The Other Cinema. Gonzales said: “I am living proof that it is possible for someone from an ethnic minority to break into the mainstream.
The Name of Cast & Characters of Bridgerton Season 2:
- Simone Ashley as Kate Sharma
- Charithra Chandran as Edwina Sharma
- Shelley Conn as Lady Mary Sharma
- Rupert Young as Jack
- Calam Lynch as Theo
What can we expect from Bridgerton Season 2?
We can expect that the series will be set in India and all things related to Indians can expect to be explored in this show. We have seen a Bollywood movie that has been shot in Mumbai, then why shouldn’t Bridgerton season 2 be shot in Mumbai or any other major city in India?
Because all the gadgets, language, costumes, and people are different from those of England. So it is impossible to repeat many scenes of this series according to their original style. The only thing that we can expect is a part of an Indian Movie, which is shot in England.
When will it be released and who is in the cast list so far?
As per the recent reports, the series is going to be released in the month of March 2022. As for the cast list so far, it has been confirmed that Simone Ashley will be seen playing the role of Kate Sharma and Shelley Conn will be playing the role of Lady Mary Sharma.
As far as Charithra Chandran is concerned, she will perform the role of Edwina Sharma and Rupert Young will play his character Jack. Calam Lynch and Theo are also playing their characters in Bridgerton Season 2.
Will any of the original cast members be returning for the new season?
If the earlier seasons of this series are compared with the new one, then we can say that it is unlikely to happen. However, if Saffron Burrows will be seen in this series as Edith-May, then it would be great news for all the fans of Bridgerton Season 2.
As per previous seasons, there is a great possibility that Bridgerton Season 2 will cover even more eras than before. If Downton Abbey and Poldark have proven anything, it’s that period drama can draw in audiences in huge numbers when it is set in different periods of history.
How many episodes will there be in Bridgerton Season 2 and what will they be about?
According to some reports, there will be around 60 episodes in Bridgerton Season 2. As for the episode names for Bridgerton Season 2, we can expect that the show will be taking its story from the popular novels of Julia Quinn.
However, if you have watched all the seasons of this series to date then you can expect to see many new characters in Bridgerton as each season is based on different novels. So it is obvious that this series has tried to keep all the readers happy by including new and old characters in their stories.
