ZEE5 Global is back with Mithya: The Darker Chapter, and let me tell you, things just got darker, twistier, and, well… more twisted. The battle between Juhi (played by Huma Qureshi) and her half-sister Rhea (Avantika Dassani) returns with a vengeance. Literally.
Directed by Kapil Sharma and streaming from November 1, Mithya is not your average psychological thriller. Juhi’s basking in the glory of her book Dhund, but hold on—because out of nowhere, a mysterious writer, Amit (played by Naveen Kasturia), comes swinging with a plagiarism accusation. And you thought your sibling rivalry was intense?
What’s great about this new season is the layered storytelling. On one end, we’ve got Juhi fighting accusations, and on the other, Rhea is still fighting for their father’s love. Their battle? It’s not just personal; it’s a cutthroat war filled with lies, deceit, and manipulation that’ll leave you questioning everything.
Why Watch This Season?
Let’s start with Huma Qureshi. She’s as fierce as ever, pulling off a character that’s vengeful, but not one-dimensional. Qureshi said in an interview, “This show pushed me to explore a more complex, darker side of myself as an actor.” And you can tell. She’s not just acting; she’s living it.
Meanwhile, Avantika Dassani shines as the ambitious half-sister, Rhea, adding more layers to the tension. Expect betrayal, secrets, and more dirty tricks than a poker game at a mob convention. Add Naveen Kasturia’s sharp performance as Amit, and you’ve got a psychological thriller that’s going to mess with your head—in a good way.
Plot: More Twists Than a Corkscrew
As Juhi fights to clear her name, Rhea gets sneakier, and Amit throws in an unexpected wild card. What stands out is the “blood versus blood” angle that pits family ties against each other. With lives on the line, the stakes are sky-high, and this is far from your basic catfight—this is a gladiator battle in designer shoes.
The dynamic between Juhi and Rhea intensifies, and this time, the consequences are deadlier. Both women transform as they delve deeper into their dark sides, with the lines between good and evil blurred beyond recognition. As the show builds to a fever pitch, it’s clear no one will come out unscathed.

With high-octane drama, shocking twists, and performances that’ll leave you speechless, Mithya: The Darker Chapter is your next binge-worthy obsession. Whether you’re a fan of psychological dramas or just in for the mind games, this series promises to keep you glued to the screen.
