Perspective
The second season is the prequel to the first season. It shows the Naik family's mysterious past, which led to Anna Naik's untimely death and the strange occurrences. It revolves around Anna's middle age, when he is an influential person in the village who uses power to take undue advantage of the village folk as well as kill people at times. This all leads to strange events happening in the house, including him witnessing ghosts of the people he murders.
Anna forcefully removes his uncle (father's younger brother), Aaba Naik, his wife Vatsala Naik, and their son Kashi Naik, from their house to control all the family property. He also becomes intimate with Kumudini "Shevanta" Patankar, who newly moves into the village with her husband Kamalakar Patankar. She gives birth to her and Anna's daughter Sushma. Anna also kills many villagers to usurp their properties. Soon, strange events starts to happen in the house, as a result of the ghosts of the people killed by Anna, and Anna witnesses the ghosts sometimes. Years later, after killing Kamalakar, Anna builds a house for Shevanta. But she gets more possessive with Anna. He then tricks her into committing suicide on the tree of the Naik house and the tree gets haunted. Finally, over the course of the following few years, Anna mends his ways and gets on the right path of good deeds. But his crime-filled past inflicts curses upon him and he faces untimely death by getting killed by the ghosts of people he murdered throughout his life.

Development
The production and filming of series took place in Akeri, Maharashtra in the Konkan Region.[8] The filming of Season 2 was stopped on 27 March 2020 due to COVID-19 pandemic. But, new episodes of this show were started airing from 13 July 2020.[9] The show went off air in late August and making way for crime series Devmanus.[10]
I believe that, our responsibility doubled after the official announcement of season 2. Also, the storyline of the show is loaded with suspense. All the characters from the season 1 will be seen in the latest season too. Moreover, new characters will be added too. Also, we have chosen same Naikancha Wada for the shoot.

Casting
Madhav Abhyankar was selected to play the role of Anna Naik.
I was informed to reduce my body weight and within a month's of span, I lost 7 to 8 kilograms and it took me more than a month to communicate in Malvani Dialect. I used to watch Malvani plays online.
— Madhav Abhyankar[12]
Apurva Nemlekar was selected to play the role of Shevanta.
I got a call from production house of this series. We are doing a new series will you come to audition? At that time, I am not interested in Sas-bahu series. I was looking for a different kind of role. I auditioned and I acted as like Daily Soap, but I was rejected. Then after a while, I was called back. At that time they said we didn't want to tell, but we were told, we are looking for Shevanta.
Prajakta Wadaye is offered for the role of Sarita who was previously played by Ashwini Mukadam in Ratris Khel Chale.
It was a big surprise for me when I got the call for playing the role of Sarita.
