Jio Hotstar’s acclaimed thriller ‘Special Ops’ is all set to return with Season 2 on July 11, and fans are once again in for a ride full of action, suspense, and a unique cinematic twist. Created by Neeraj Pandey, the series follows Himmat Singh, a sharp and relentless RAW agent, portrayed brilliantly by Kay Kay Menon, as he continues his years-long international mission.

A Cinematic Tribute in Every Episode

What makes Special Ops stand out — beyond its gripping storytelling — is its clever episode naming. Every single episode is named after a legendary Bollywood film, not just as a nostalgic nod but as a creative reflection of the episode’s core theme.

Here are some of the episode titles:

• Kagaz Ke Phool
• Guide
• Shatranj Ke Khiladi
• Hum Kisi Se Kam Nahin
• Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga
• Qurbani
• Sholay
• Shaurya
• Mission Kashmir

These titles aren’t just for style — they influence the tone and storyline. For example, the episode titled “Sholay” delivers high-octane action, while “Guide” explores emotional and human dimensions.

A Thriller With a Heart for Cinema

This nostalgic format creates a strong emotional connection with Indian audiences, celebrating the golden legacy of Bollywood. Neeraj Pandey smartly weaves in cinematic flavor, making ‘Special Ops’ not just a gripping thriller, but also a love letter to Indian cinema.

Get ready to dive back into the action when Season 2 premieres on July 11, only on Jio Hotstar.
