Aspirants Season 3: When and where to watch, cast
Aspirants Season 3 has dropped on Prime Video on March 13 with five episodes. The new season features Naveen Kasturia, Shivankit Singh Parihar, Abhilash Thapliyal, Sunny Hinduja, Namita Dubey and Tengam Celine, with Jatin Goswami joining the cast this time.
Talking about the series, Naveen Kasturia said, “Aspirants has always been incredibly special to me because audiences did not just watch Abhilash, they grew up with him”, adding, “In Season 3, we meet him at a point where the dream has come true on paper, but the ground reality is far more complicated. He is juggling public expectations, personal guilt, and the fear of letting down the people who believed in him most. For me, what made this chapter powerful was exploring how ambition feels when you already have everything at stake. This version of Abhilash is more vulnerable, more conflicted, and a lot more honest about his flaws. I’m grateful that viewers continue to resonate with his story, and I cannot wait for viewers to see where his journey goes next.” Watch the trailer of Aspirants Season 3 here:
