Since its release on May 1, Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar has taken the world by storm. Within the first week of its launch, it swiftly climbed Netflix's Top 10 TV (Non-English) list in 43 countries, becoming the most-viewed Indian series globally. The series has been reigning in the number one spot in the India Top 10 list since its launch. The show continues to have a resounding cultural impact, with fans creating reels and posts inspired by Mallikajaan and Fareedan's dialogues, Bibbojaan's walk of seduction, soulful musical renditions of "Sakal Ban" and "Ek Baar Dekh Leejiye," and stunning costume recreations.

As the audience joined in singing along, the dancers delivered the exciting news about Season 2, leaving everyone in awe.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali expresses his gratitude for the success of Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar, saying, "I'm blessed by the love and appreciation for Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar. It's been a joy to see the show resonate with audiences worldwide, and I couldn't have asked for a better partner than Netflix. I'm happy to announce that we'll be back with season 2!"
