Sushmita Sen is raring to go with the second season of her much-awaited show Aarya up for streaming in a few days. The thriller that streams on Disney+ Hotstar is returning for a second season, with Sushmita Sen headlining the show once more. And, ahead of the new release, Sushmita Sen sat down for a rapid-fire round to spill the beans on what she thinks of her character, Aarya in the eponymous series. Sharing a video of the same on Instagram, Sushmita Sen wrote, “There's nothing rapid about this fire…it smoulders,” adding, “Aarya Season 2 all episodes streaming from 10th Dec 2021 only on Disney+ Hotstar,” tagging the cast and crew of the popular show.
So what exactly did Sushmita Sen say? For starters, she was questioned: “What inspires you most on a film set?” To this Sushmita said, “Genuinely, getting on the set is inspiration enough. Just creating a story and bringing life into it. That inspires me.”

When asked about the one thing that Sushmita Sen and Aarya have in common, the actress said, “The strength of a mother.” She further said that the two would react the same way in a “do-or-die” situation. “We will go down “doing” and if it means “dying”, so be it.” She added that there was a lot of belonging on the sets of Aarya and that she would always cherish it.
