Breathe Season 2 Storyline

Avinash Sabharwal and Abha Sabharwal’s life becomes still when Siya Goes Missing from a friend’s birthday party. The cops are being called in for the Investigation. Avinash and Abha plan murders to meet the kidnapper’s demands so that the daughter is set free. We see how the well-educated couple becomes the murderers. And they have only one justification that all is fair if you are trying to save your family.

Avinash thinks he can trick the kidnapper because he is a psychiatrist, he is the specialist in “Mind Games”. The kidnapper marks the victims based on 10 heads on Ravana. I am pretty sure that it will remind you of the 1995’s thriller Se7en. Kabir Sawant who is investigating these murders Avinash joins him in the investigation by claiming that he knows who the killer is.

In the last episode, it leaves the audience on the cliffhanger with Shirley is standing with a chit in her hand with the words “C-16” written on it. Some believe that it is the drug that exists in real life medicine that helps to improve the intelligence of humans. While some believe that it is some kind of the code word between Shirley and Avinash. For the exact meaning, we had to wait for the next season.

Breathe Season 2 Review

It is always being more challenging and difficult to impress the audience with the second season if the previous season is appreciated by the audience. Just like that happened with this show the first season was mind-blowing and this second season was not able to meet the expectations of the audience. The tagline of season is “A father’s love can save a life or take one!!” Some Shoddy writing did make the season somehow boring. You will be able to guess the kidnapper before hitting the mid-point of 12 long episode season. Abhishek Bachchan certainly showed that he particularly improved as the actor. You will see his sincerity and dedication in some moments. Amit Sadh did pretty good just as he has done in the previous season. Nitya Menon’s acting was able to impress the audience. So overall the season 2 is loosely written and ends with being unreasonable storyline.
