Bard of Blood is another intriguing show streaming on Netflix India, which revolves around Ex-IIW (Indian Intelligence Wing) agent Kabir Anand, played by Emraan Hashmi, who returns home after years of exile to undertake a new mission. Based on a spy thriller of the same title penned by young author Bilal Siddiqi, Bard of Blood brings us face-to-face espionage operations in the desert of Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.

The series features an intense plotline with loads of fascinating schemes, and we can’t wait until it drops to see how Sobhita Dhulipala, Abhishekh Khan, Danish Husain, and Vineet Kumar Singh play different roles connected and entwined together! A Must watch definitely!

Panchayat Season 3

Season: 3 | Episodes: 8-10 (Not confirmed) | Duration – 30-45 minutes/episode

It seems the third installment of the cleverly written rural comedy Panchayat might not grace our tv screens anytime soon. Although the director Deepak Kumar Mishra already clarified in an interview that his production team began brainstorming over the script, he refused to comment on the upcoming season’s release date, which makes us assume that the arrival of the much-awaited Panchayat season 3 won’t happen until late 2023.

However, as per our industry sources, the Asur Season 2 on Voot Select can release anytime during the second quarter of 2023.

Made In Heaven Season 2

Season: 2 | Episodes: 9-10 (Not confirmed)
Release Date: 2nd Quarter 2023

Set against the backdrop of India’s most opulent weddings, Made In Heaven is the story of Tara (Sobhita Dhulipala) and Karan (Arjun Mathur), two Delhi-based wedding planners navigating through the traditional arranged marriages, virginity tests, and dowry system amidst the big fat Indian wedding atmosphere, where tradition clashes with modern ambitions, secrets, and lies begin to unravel in the supposedly open-minded upper class.

We can’t wait until Made In Heaven Season 2 of this Amazon Prime Video show drops soon! It is speculated that the series should drop any time in the second quarter of 2023 with an announcement of Made in Heaven 2 release date coming soon.

Rana Naidu

Season: 1 (Hindi and Telugu)
Release Date: 2nd Quarter 2023
Platform
: Netflix

Rana and Venkatesh Daggubati, two superstars from South India, are set to star in an upcoming Netflix crime drama web series titled Rana Naidu. It will be the first time for Rana Dagggubati, most famous for his epic Baahubali film series, to share a screen with his uncle Venkatesh Daggubati, who is likewise well-known within the Tollywood industry.

The show is said to be based on the American crime drama Ray Donovan (2013), where the protagonist of that show is a ‘fixer,’ responsible for arranging criminal activities such as bribes or cleaning up after high-profile crimes done by his wealthy clients. It all gets complicated when Ray’s estranged father comes out of prison, and they have no choice but to go on the run together while pursued by law enforcement agencies.

Rana Naidu web series is rumored to premiere on April 26, 2023, on Netflix!

Aashram Season 4

Season: 4 | Episodes: 9-10 (Not confirmed)
Release Date: 2nd Quarter 2023
Platform
: MX Player

Aashram Season 4 is expected to be more exciting and intriguing than its previous seasons. Baba Nirala is claiming himself to be above everything, even the law, in Ashram Season 4, and he protests his custody, claiming that no one can arrest God. Pammi, on the other hand, who had left the Aashram in Ashram Season 2 and had dragged the charlatan to court in Ashram Season 3, allegedly freely returns to the Aashram.

Pammi is also suspected to get married in Ashram Season 4, as she is seen getting ready as a bride. However, Bhopa Singh, Baba’s deputy, warns Pammi to keep away from the godman, commonly known as Baba Nirala.

It is going to be almost 7 months before the teaser of the Ashram Season 4 is released. We can guess shooting has been completed now. With that, we presume the makers will not hold us long to release the next chapter. Henceforth, Ashram Season 4 is speculated to get released in the second quarter of 2023. Though there is no official announcement yet!

Another series that fans want to be renewed is Leila for Season 2. Produced by Deepa Mehta and starring Huma Qureshi, Leila is a dystopian thriller set in futuristic India. It follows Shalini (Qureshi), a desperate mother on the hunt for her missing daughter Leila.

Taking cues from Margaret Atwood’s “The Handmaid’s Tale,” this six-part series will explore themes of religious fundamentalism, caste systems, and complex power dynamics within relationships between men and women as Shalini embarks on her quest to reunite with Leila—no matter what the cost may be.

All these upcoming series have something different to offer in terms of stories and genres, making them the most awaited releases of 2023. With so many exciting new shows coming out this year, it is sure to be a great one for Indian web series fans. So if you’re looking for your next streaming binge, make sure you keep an eye out for these highly anticipated titles!
