Expectation From Sacred Games Season 3:

As it has not yet been confirmed to be returning, no information has been released yet about Sacred Games season 3. But given that season two ended on an extremely dramatic cliffhanger, the show is expected to follow reveal what happen after the screen cut to black. The series ended on a huge cliffhanger when it was revealed that Sartaj had three attempts to break the code and stop the nuclear bomb set to destroy Mumbai. Just as he put in the final code and waited to see if it was the correct combination, the screen dramatically cut to black.

However, fans do know that if the series is to continue, it will no longer follow the plot of the original novel of the same name by Chandra. Sartaj Singh actor Saif Ali Khan spoke about a third season to Press Trust of India. He said revealed to the Indian publication: “This story ends at the end of this season. “So I don’t know if they will extend it. [But] There is always scope for more.” Show runner Vikramaditya Motwane also revealed in an interview with the Hindustan Times that after season two they will have run out of the source material of novel. As a result, the show runner revealed that they are likely to follow a similar pattern to how Game of Thrones continued beyond George RR Martin’s novels. He told the publication: “Should things go on we’ll make things up.”
