The makers of *The Royals* announce that Ishaan Khatter is set to return for season 2, with casting additions that expand the show’s central relationships. NDTV reports that Sini Shetty is expected to join as the new female lead, alongside Gurfateh Pirzada, who is also listed among the season 2 cast.
Both reports frame the upcoming season around a romance-driven storyline. One source specifically describes season 2 as involving a “love triangle,” tying the returning Ishaan Khatter’s character to the two newly added leads. Another source focuses more generally on the new cast lineup and Shetty’s entry into the series.
Overall, the outlets agree on the core casting announcements—Khatter’s return and the inclusion of Shetty and Pirzada—and on the premise that the season’s plot centers on romantic dynamics. However, they differ in emphasis: one highlights the likely love-triangle angle, while the other centers on the casting and lead roles.
