Here's what Abhishek said about the series
Talking about his digital debut, Abhishek had earlier told PTI, "In Breathe, one of the things that attracted me the most to the story was the details and nuances that were built into the character I play." "This is possible in the streaming medium since the time to engage with the audience is nearly four times that of a conventional feature film," he added.
What was the first season of 'Breathe' all about?
For the unversed, the first season of Prime Video's Breathe revolved around a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase between a charismatic football coach Danny (R Madhavan), who is desperate to save his dying son's life, and Sadh's cop character.
Meanwhile, Prime Video is on a roll
Meanwhile, Prime Video continues to add fresh shows and films to its collection. The announcement for Breathe comes shortly after the huge success of Anushka Sharma-produced crime thriller Paatal Lok. Furthermore, the streaming service has also acquired exclusive rights to stream some of this year's most awaited Bollywood movies including Ayushmann Khurrana and Amitabh Bachchan-starrer Gulabo Sitabo and Vidya Balan's Shakuntala Devi.
