‘Bridgerton’ goes Bollywood: Season two all set to feature cover of iconic ‘K3G’ song

An orchestra version of the ‘Kabhi Khushi Khabie Gham’ title track will be part of the hit Netflix series

Netflix’s Regency era dramedy series Bridgerton is all set to return for a second season, and there is something special in store for Bollywood fans. The series will feature an orchestra cover version of the iconic and instantly recognisable Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham title track! The second season will also star British actor Simone Ashley, who will be playing Kate Sharma, a character with Indian ancestry. 

The show will also include covers of other famous songs such as Nirvana's Stay Away, Madonna's Material Girl, Rihanna's Diamonds, Robyn's Dancing on my own, Alanis Morissette's You Oughta Know, Harry Styles' Sign of the Times, Calvin Harris' How Deep is your Love and Miley Cyrus' Wrecking Ball.  

Speaking about the music of the upcoming season, showrunner Chris Van Dusen shared with E!Online, “I chose all of these songs for very specific reasons. Each one is incredibly powerful and deeply emotional in its own special way. I always try many different songs for any one scene before landing on the perfect one to use. This season, I couldn't be more thrilled about our musical playlist."

The past season featured songs such as Maroon 5's Girls Like You, Shawn Mendes In My Blood and Taylor Swift's Wildest Dreams. The glitz and glamour will return to the OTT platform on March 25.

Drawing inspiration from Julia Quinn’s novels and taking the traditions forward, the second part will follow the story of Lord Anthony Bridgerton’s (Jonathan Bailey) quest for love as he sets out to find a suitable wife. When Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) and her younger sister Edwina (Charithra Chandran) arrive from India, Anthony starts to court the latter sister — but the former soon discovers that his intentions for marriage are not pure.
