Hunter 2 trailer launch packs a punch
MUMBAI: When Jackie Shroff and Suniel Shetty rip through a life-sized poster to launch a trailer, you know the action’s not just on screen. Amazon MX Player, Amazon’s free video streamer, dropped the high-octane trailer of Hunter Season 2 – Tootega Nahi Todega at a packed Mumbai event and things took a wild turn when Tiger Shroff made a surprise guest entry, sending fan cameras and adrenaline levels soaring.
Tiger’s unannounced arrival was a tribute to the original hunter duo — his show of support drawing whistles and applause as he joined the action icons on stage. The trailer itself teased a gritty new chapter, promising pulse-pounding stunts, emotional stakes, and a heavyweight showdown between The Hunter and the mysterious Salesman.
Also spotted flexing their screen chops at the launch were cast members Anusha Dandekar, Barkha Bisht, Anang Desai, Pramod Pathak, and Mazel Vyas. The series is directed by Prince Dhiman and Alok Batra, and produced by Yoodlee Films, the cinematic wing of Saregama India.
Speaking about the second season of Hunter – Tootega Nahi Todega, Amazon MX Player head of content, Amogh Dusad shared, “With Hunter 2 – Tootega Nahi Todega, we’ve scaled up every aspect of the storytelling. From the emotional depth and character arcs to the intense action and global canvas. Suniel Shetty’s return and Jackie Shroff’s entry take the narrative to a whole new level, creating a compelling face-off that’s both personal and powerful. At Amazon MX Player, our focus remains on delivering stories that resonate emotionally while offering a high-impact viewing experience.”
“The response to Season 1 of Hunter – Tootega Nahi Todega showed us that audiences love edge-of-the-seat action when it’s backed by heart. With Suniel Shetty returning as Vikram and Jackie Shroff stepping in as the enigmatic Salesman, Season 2 brings a powerful new energy to the story. This season dives deeper, hits harder, and delivers the kind of thrill that stays with you. At Saregama and Yoodlee Films, we’re excited to continue building cinematic experiences that resonate with today’s viewers, and our collaboration with Amazon MX Player allows us to reach audiences far and wide,” shared Saregama India executive VP Siddharth Anand Kumar.
Expressing his excitement about the trailer launch and his return to the series, Suniel Shetty highlighted, “Season 2 of Hunter – Tootega Nahi Todega digs deeper into Vikram’s past, his pain, and what drives him. This trailer is just the tip of the iceberg. What I love most is how personal the action feels this time. It’s not just about guns and chases, it’s about what’s at stake emotionally. And that emotional weight made every scene more intense. Launching the trailer in front of fans and the media gave us a real sense of how ready people are for this next chapter.”
Sharing insights about his character and the much-awaited second season, Shroff shared, “Jumping into Hunter 2 – Tootega Nahi Todega was a wild ride. The world had its own vibe, and then this Salesman walks in and turns it all upside down. Playing him was like holding fire in your hands – calm, yet deadly. The trailer’s out, Bhidus! Time to dive in and enjoy the ride!”
Hunter 2 – Tootega Nahi Todega starts streaming for free on Amazon MX Player from July 24. Brace for impact.

OneOTT partners with UP govt for Project GANGA broadband rollout
Initiative to connect 2M plus households, empower 8,000–10,000 entrepreneurs in 2–3 years.
MUMBAI: Uttar Pradesh just got a digital Ganga flow because when broadband meets ambition, even villages start streaming faster than city traffic. OneOTT Intertainment Ltd. (OIL), the broadband arm of Hinduja Global Solutions (HGS) under the Hinduja Group, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the State Transformation Commission (STC), Government of Uttar Pradesh, for Project GANGA (Government Assisted Network for Growth & Advancement).
The MoU, signed on 7 March 2026 in the presence of Uttar Pradesh Finance & Parliamentary Affairs Minister Suresh Kumar Khanna, aims to empower 8,000–10,000 local entrepreneurs at the Nyaya Panchayat level as independent Digital Service Providers (DSPs). A significant number of these DSPs are expected to be women. The initiative will deliver high-speed broadband to over 2 million households in the next 2–3 years and create direct and indirect employment for more than 100,000 individuals.
Project GANGA will support government priorities in digital education, healthcare and public services while enabling MSMEs and enterprises with reliable connectivity. DSPs will receive structured training, financing assistance, network build-out support and technology enablement.
STC CEO Manoj Kumar Singh said, “Project GANGA is a significant step toward expanding inclusive digital infrastructure in Uttar Pradesh. By empowering local entrepreneurs, the program will strengthen service delivery and ensure affordable digital access for underserved communities.”
OIL, MD & CEO and HGS whole-time director Vynsley Fernandes added, “This initiative reflects our long-term commitment to enabling digital access and economic opportunity at scale. Project GANGA is structured as a multi-year program focused on entrepreneur onboarding, network deployment and workforce development.”
OIL brings execution strength backed by HGS and NXTDIGITAL’s national footprint, which already connects over 5 million homes across more than 4,500 pin codes in 1,500 cities and towns through 15,000 plus franchise partners and over 2 lakh kilometres of fibre infrastructure. The ecosystem will support broadband, IPTV, OTT, CCTV, satellite internet and cybersecurity solutions for households, businesses and public institutions.
In a state racing toward digital inclusion, Project GANGA isn’t just laying cables, it’s laying the foundation for millions to connect, learn, heal and earn, one Nyaya Panchayat at a time.
