To mark the release of the second season of the popular web series ‘Heartbeat’, streaming on Disney+ Hotstar, we had a lively chat with the cast and crew of ‘Heartbeat 2’. Known for its unique mix of medical drama, romance, and comedy, the series received an overwhelming response in its first season, which set the stage for an even more exciting Season 2.
