Breathe: Into The Shadows released on Amazon Prime Video on July 10, 2020. The series' first season had a phenomenal response, and with lockdown, in place, the chances of season two becoming a huge hit are more. However, Amit Sadh believes otherwise. He said that lockdown would not help if the content and the production are up to the mark. It is much easier for audiences to quickly reject content now because lockdown has led to a splurge of content on the internet, added the Breathe 2 actor. Breathe: Into The Shadows also features Saiyami Kher in a pivotal role. The forthcoming series is directed by Mayank Sharma and bankrolled by Vikram Malhotra under his production banner Abundantia Entertainment.
