Is Ketan Parekh in Scam 1992 Season 2?

As mentioned above, Scam 1992 revolves around the life of stockbroker Harshad Mehta. Season 1 of the show covered Mehta’s rise and fall and the entire scam. Hence the possibility of Harshad Mehta being the protagonist of Season 2 of Scam 1992 is less.

According to Binged’s report, there could be a possibility of Scam 1992 becoming an anthology series. Since Scam 1992 Season 1 focused on Harshad Mehta, this time it could focus on Ketan Parekh. Ketan Parekh is considered to be a protégé of Harshad Mehta.

Finance journalist Sucheta Dalal and the co-author of The Scam: The Scam: Who Won, who Lost, who Got Away was also involved in investigating the scam executed by Parekh. This scam was known as the Ketan Parekh Scam and it took place in 2001. If this possibility turns out to be true, the anthology series could cover many other scams and storylines. Although Scam 1992 makers are yet to comment on this possibility.
