In conversation with Pinkvilla, Shahid spoke about the response to his first OTT project. When he was asked if season 2 of Farzi would happen, the actor mentioned, "So of course, the second season of Farzi will happen. I mean, the response was amazing. Also, the way the story ended, it was open-ended so there is an opportunity for a lot more to happen. It was not like a culmination."
He further mentioned, "So Farzi 2 will happen, and if anything else I like, I will, but as of now, I haven’t said yes to anything for OTT because I had two releases this year, so I'm going to do some stuff for theatres now. But Farzi 2 will definitely happen."
