The highly-anticipated second season of Family Karma is finally here and it kicks off with a bang in episode one, "Welcome Back Karma." The show, which follows several multi-generational Indian-American families in Miami and their everyday lives, returns with all of the drama, heart, and humor that made it a hit during its first season.
In "Welcome Back Karma," we catch up with the cast six months after the season one finale. The episode begins with Vishal and Richa's engagement party, where the entire cast is in attendance, including Anisha's mother, Chitra. Fans of the show will remember that Chitra was absent for the entirety of season one due to her strained relationship with Anisha. However, she is back and ready to make amends with her daughter.
As the celebration gets underway, tensions start to rise between the different families. Everyone seems to have an opinion on Vishal and Richa's engagement, and not all of them are positive. Aneesh, one of the show's newest cast members, takes particular issue with Vishal and criticizes his behavior throughout the season. Meanwhile, Monica and Brian continue to navigate their relationship after the bombshell revelation that Monica's father disapproves of Brian.
However, the real drama of the episode centers around Amrit and his boyfriend Nicholas. Amrit, who came out to his family during season one, is now struggling with the fact that Nicholas may not be ready to come out to his own family. This tension culminates in an emotional conversation between Amrit and his mother, where she expresses concern that Nicholas may not be the right person for her son.
Overall, "Welcome Back Karma" sets the stage for an exciting second season. Fans of the show will be thrilled to see familiar faces and catch up with what they've been doing over the past six months. With new relationships, old grudges, and lots of laughter, Family Karma promises to be one of the most entertaining reality shows on television.
