Having put on a convincing act as Nawaz's lover in Sacred Games, Kubbra says she wants to return for season 2

Kubbra Sait
She had limited screen time, and was posed with the Herculean task of establishing herself amidst artistes like Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Saif Ali Khan, but Kubbra Sait's name is certain to crop up when discussion around Sacred Games comes up. Romancing Siddiqui's gangster avatar, Ganesh Gaitonde, Sait made her character, Kukoo, one among those that stay with you long after the Netflix show concludes.
That her character as a transgender is one that she got deeply involved with is evident when she says, "I am more empathetic and aware now. The implications of [section] 377 [of the IPC], the meaning of transexual, Pride day and LGBTQ, all have a new meaning. Now, everything [transgender roles] will be compared to this [character]. Taking up this role has been a big move."
