The spine-chilling murder case of a veteran journalist and key suspect, Jigna Vora, has many undisclosed aspects in the series. Meanwhile, viewers are already anticipating its second season.
Will there be Scoop Season 2 on Netflix, release date update and plot story ending explained
On June 2, 2023, Scoop was released on Netflix, starring Karishma Tanna in the lead role. The movie is based on the biography novel of Jign; Behind Bars in Byculla: My Days in Prison. The show ended with Jigna Vora being granted bail after nine months in jail.
Prior to the 12th anniversary of the murder of Mumbai crime reporter Jyotirmoy Dey, Scoop began streaming on Netflix and promised to bring back memories of his glory at the hands of the ever-present mafia.
The Cast and Crew of The Scoop
The series stars Karishma Tanna (Jagruti Pathak-Jigna Vora) and Prosenjit Chatterjee (Jaideb Sen-J Dey) in the lead roles. Harman Baweja, Tannishtha Chatterjee, Deven Bhojani, and Ayyub are seen in supporting roles.

#Scoop is streaming on @NetflixIndia. This one was so satisfying and tough to make. It makes me happy to see that some of the difficult choices we made have worked. Thankful for all the love already coming our way. Am out of town for a few days to calm anxious release nerves. In… pic.twitter.com/14wdQbErfh

A Twitter user commented on Scoop: “Acting, narrative, everything is excellent! I thought all of the key actors—Karishma, Zeeshan, and Harman—were fantastic, but I particularly adored the actor who played Jagtap because he was such a natural performer. “Excellent and captivating series!!” another user tweeted. all night long! Karishma Tanna did a fantastic job! #Scoop”
Will There Be a Second Season 2 of Scoop On Netflix?
Scoop has not yet received an official Netflix renewal as of this writing. However, it seems obvious that the series will feature multiple seasons, with each season concentrating on a different real-life crime.
Because of this format’s adaptability, the showrunners can drop Jigna Vora’s plot while still maintaining the attractiveness of the brand. And given that the first season’s trailer has already received an astounding 39 million views, it is obvious that the brand will have enduring appeal.
Of course, Netflix will take into account the popularity of the first season. They will keep track of how many people watch it through to the end, and it will be worthwhile to monitor sites like Netflix’s Top 10. Even in the absence of an official announcement, if Scoop enters the non-English TV rankings, that is a very strong indication that a second season will be produced.
Of course, it’s possible that the marketing focus did not result in increased viewership, but even in that case, Netflix might decide to gamble on a second season.
Since each prospective season of true crime is unique and only one tale can truly capture the attention of the viewing public, the success of Season 1 does not guarantee the success of Season 2.
Scoop will definitely be renewed for Season 2 sooner rather than later.
