Anurag has now cleared the air about why the series never saw the light of day. The first two seasons starred Saif Ali Khan and Nawazuddin in pivotal roles. Pointing out that Netlix would know about it, Anurag said, “Vikram Motwane was driving Sacred Games. Ten days before I was supposed to go shoot Mukkabaaz, he asked me to come on board. I told him I was always interested, but they had a problem with me. Some local people had told them that I didn’t have a female audience. It was my zone, and they eventually came around… A season three was supposed to come out, but they shut it down, Netflix would know why.”

Anurag added, “OTT ki aaj ki date mein himmat nahi hai, Tandav ke baad sab dar gaye hain.”
