Rana Naidu S2 – Gritty Crime Drama Returns | Netflix | June 13, 2025
The highly-anticipated Season 2 of Rana Naidu is all set to premiere on June 13, 2025, exclusively on Netflix, and it promises an even more intense rollercoaster of drama, action, and emotional conflict than before. After the explosive first season left audiences wanting more, the titular fixer returns, not just to clean up others’ messes—but to finally confront his own.
A Battle Between Past and Present
In Rana Naidu Season 2, Rana Daggubati returns in top form as the fierce and brooding Rana Naidu. This time, the stakes are higher as he dives deeper into the murky waters of crime and loyalty, trying to build a secure future for his fractured family. But with every step forward, a new shadow emerges.
Enter Rauf, played with chilling charisma by Arjun Rampal, a new antagonist whose personal vendetta against Rana threatens to tear down everything he has built. Rauf is not just a rival—he’s a ghost from a dark past, determined to bring chaos and vengeance to Rana’s doorstep.
Father vs. Son: The Tension Escalates
As if Rauf’s vendetta wasn’t enough, the internal turmoil within Rana’s own family reaches a breaking point. His estranged father, Naga Naidu (played by the ever-impressive Venkatesh Daggubati), resurfaces to stir up old emotions and unresolved tensions. The father-son dynamic, central to Season 1’s emotional core, intensifies in this new season, as both men wrestle with guilt, pride, and their conflicting visions of justice and legacy.
A Stellar Ensemble Cast

- Surveen Chawla as Naina, Rana’s wife, torn between love and fear.
- Kriti Kharbanda in a new pivotal role that adds complexity to Rana’s journey.
