The show is produced by Applause Entertainment in association with Kukunoor Movies.

Actor Priya Bapat said, Poornima Gaikwad is inspiring and admirable, and it has been heartening to see how the character has appealed to audiences, especially women who found her empowering. In the second season, audiences will see an even more daring, grittier, and determined Poornima whose political ambitions take precedence over anything else. I am very proud to be essaying such a strong female role who drives the narrative of the show, shatters stereotypes, and fights against all odds to strive in a male-dominated world. I hope viewers relate to her and the unwavering commitment she exhibits in City of Dreams Season 2, as she continues to stand up for herself and what she deserves.”

Actor Atul Kulkarni said, “Ameya Rao Gaikwad is a special character for me and I am delighted that audiences get to see more of him, and his story. There’s an almost sinister quality to him which makes his desire and resolve to hold a position of power is stronger than his sense of family bonds. If the brother-sister battle for politics  in season-1 was shrewd, then the father vs daughter tussle in City of Dreams Season 2 is going to be doubly intense.

Director Nagesh Kukunoor said, “It was overwhelming to see the appreciation that City of Dreams S1 received, and how viewers got invested in the life of the characters. As the story of the political power battle in the Gaikwad family goes forward, I hope that we can live up to the audience's expectations! It’s going to get murkier and personal, and the fight for power is going to destroy many households.
