Mumbai: Veteran actor Anupam Kher says he is excited that his medical drama series “New Amsterdam” has been confirmed for the second season.

“I am delighted to share with you all that our series ‘New Amsterdam’ is confirmed for season 2. Congratulations to our brilliant cast and crew. It is a show which celebrates love, life, compassion and diversity. So happy and excited,” wrote the actor, who played a neurosurgeon in the first season.
