Fans of the gripping web series Aashram have much to celebrate as the eagerly awaited second part of Season 3 is set to premiere soon. Created by acclaimed director Prakash Jha, Aashram Season 3 Part 2 is scheduled for release on February 27, 2025, exclusively on Amazon MX Player. Since its debut, the show has captured audiences with intense storytelling, remarkable performances, and bold themes.
Bobby Deol, who gained significant acclaim for his portrayal of Baba Nirala, is once again leading the cast. Jha has structured the upcoming episodes to heighten the stakes within this complex narrative, as viewers anticipate the return of Baba Nirala and the intense power dynamics at play.
Jha recently praised Deol's dedication to embodying Baba Nirala, emphasizing the hard work the actor put forth to bring the character to life. "Bobby really worked hard. He has the capacity to play this role, and that's why I thought to cast him. I needed a face who could appeal to everyone, and hats off to him; he worked incredibly hard on his character, on the language, and on fully embracing the essence of the Baba role," Jha stated during a conversation with ANI.
The director's confidence in Deol was evident from the beginning. Reflecting on his initial reaction to the role, Deol shared, "I was willing to play different kinds of roles and step out of my comfort zone. But I thought [Prakash Jha] would offer me the role of a police officer. When he told me, 'You will play Baba,' I couldn't believe it. He believed in me, and I got what I wanted. God was kind to me; I got such a challenging role." This eagerness to explore varied characters has contributed to Deol's successful comeback, making him one of the most talked-about actors on the OTT platform.
Aashram Season 3 Part 2 will continue to unravel the dark secrets of Baba Nirala’s world, with thrilling plot twists and character development peppering the storyline. The show also features key players like Aaditi Pohankar, who portrays Pammi, Darshan Kumaar, Chandan Roy Sanyal, and Esha Gupta, each contributing to the intricacies of this dramatic saga. The trailer, recently unveiled, teases the return of Pammi to confront new challenges and highlight the longstanding conflicts and betrayals within the Ashram.
Fans eagerly anticipate the conflicts between Baba Nirala and his closest allies, characterized by betrayals and shifting loyalties. The trailer hints at rising tensions and the potential return of old rivalries, all framed against Jha's signature style of storytelling, which intertwines personal conflicts with broader societal themes.
To mark the significance of the upcoming release, the streaming service has made arrangements to launch the second part of the season slightly earlier than planned. Previously scheduled for February 26, the episodes will now become available at 10 PM on the same day, responding to the intense buzz surrounding the show.
Reflecting on the casting choices, Jha had some initial reservations about Aaditi Pohankar's suitability for the character of Pammi, who is depicted as a strong wrestler. "When she auditioned, I saw potential, but I wasn’t completely convinced. She was too thin at the time for the muscular build needed for the role," Jha admitted. He added, "Once the shoot started, she was incredible." The determination she displayed to transform for the role has earned her substantial recognition from audiences and critics alike.
Bobby Deol humorously remarked on Pohankar's dedication to gaining weight for the role, saying, "She took it so seriously to match the physicality of Pammi; she would eat all of our food on set!" This light-hearted acknowledgment highlights the camaraderie among the cast and the dedication they all shared to bring this series to life.
Beyond the narrative and character arcs, Aashram has also made headlines with the fees charged by its star-studded cast. It is reported Bobby Deol received between 1 crore to 4 crores for his role, making him one of the highest-paid actors on the series. Aaditi Pohankar, who has garnered praise for her portrayal, reportedly earned fees exceeding 20 lakhs, reflecting the growing significance of streaming platforms and their investment in quality content.
The questions remain: Can Baba Nirala maintain his stronghold over the Ashram as conflicts intensify, or will the walls of deception come crashing down? The return of Aashram Season 3 Part 2 promises to bring explosive developments as audiences engage with its rich, layered storytelling.
With only days until viewers can binge-watch the new episodes, the anticipation is palpable. Aashram, with its hallmark tension-filled dialogue and deep-rooted intrigues of power, is positioned to not only engage current fans but also expand its reach to new viewers eager for compelling stories to binge.
This latest chapter is sure to leave audiences on the edge of their seats, questioning alliances, motivations, and the consequences of ambition. Fans can prepare themselves for another round of heart-pounding drama, all starting on February 27, 2025, exclusively on Amazon MX Player.
