“While Baba remains the face of the Aashram, Bhopa operates behind him,” Chandan Roy Sanyal discusses the power dynamic between two riveting characters in Amazon MX Player’s Ek Badnaam Aashram S3 Part 2

Mumbai, February 28, 2025: Amazon MX Player, Amazon's free video streaming platform, recently released the highly anticipated Ek Badnaam Aashram Season 3 Part 2, taking audiences even deeper into the murky world of power, faith, and deception. Produced and directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Prakash Jha, this latest installment intensifies the drama as Baba Nirala’s empire faces its greatest reckoning yet, testing the limits of loyalty and control. With Bobby Deol returning as the enigmatic Baba Nirala and Chandan Roy Sanyal reprising his iconic role as Bhopa Swami along with Bobby Deol, the series also features a stellar ensemble cast including Aaditi Pohankar, Darshan Kumaar, Vikram Kochhar, Tridha Choudhury, Anupriya Goenka, Rajeev Siddhartha, and Esha Gupta in pivotal roles.


Reflecting on his character’s evolution, Chandan Roy Sanyal, shared, “Right from the start, Bhopa Swami has had to fight for his place— earning his people's trust while securing his standing within Baba Nirala’s inner circle. But beneath his unwavering loyalty lies a storm of internal conflict, especially when it comes to Pammi. He feels trapped, torn between devotion and love, and as justifying his actions to Baba becomes harder, the distance between them grows. Eventually, this divide drives Bhopa to rise against both Baba Nirala and the Aashram, ultimately taking control. What lies ahead for him remains to be seen.”

Discussing the power dynamics between Baba and Bhopa, Chandan added, “Baba and Bhopa have always been two sides of the same coin– always working in tandem to run the town, the Aashram, and the system itself. While Baba remains the face of the Aashram, Bhopa operates behind him, executing his orders from the shadows. However, as tensions mount, their once-unshakable bond begins to crack. Bhopa fights to hold the Aashram together, but the rift between them turns into an all-out power struggle. The real question now is—will their friendship survive, or will it fall victim to the ultimate battle between heart and mind?"
