Asif Ali Leads Deli Boys to May 28, 2026 Season 2 Return
Deli Boys will return for Season 2 on May 28, 2026, extending the run of a Hulu comedy that first arrived on March 6, 2025. For viewers who came in for the humor and stayed for the family fallout, the date locks in another round of Mir and Raj’s story.
Asif Ali and Saagar Shaikh
Asif Ali plays Mir and Saagar Shaikh plays Raj, the brothers at the center of the series. Their lives shift after Baba, played by Iqbal Theba, dies in a golfing accident and is revealed to have been a drug lord in Philadelphia. That setup gives the show a cleaner business appeal than a broad family comedy: the inheritance is an empire they did not understand, not just a grief story.
Season 1 ran 10 episodes and drew a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes. A first season that lands that strongly usually gives a platform room to keep the title visible longer, especially when the next release date is already on the calendar. The show was described as one of the best new shows of 2025, and that kind of response is what turns a fresh launch into a repeat bet.
Lucky Auntie
Poorna Jagannathan plays Lucky Auntie, a no-nonsense, sharp-tongued, occasionally terrifying presence in the family orbit. That gives Deli Boys a second engine beyond the brothers’ scramble: the show is balancing humor, action, and family drama inside the same premise, which is harder to sustain than a simple crime setup.
The friction in the story is built into the premise itself. Mir and Raj inherit a life they never really understood, then have to keep moving after learning what Baba left behind. A May 28, 2026 return date means the series is not being treated like a one-off surprise; it is being positioned as an ongoing title with enough audience support to keep the family empire open for another season.
May 28, 2026
Giovana Gelhoren reported the Season 2 arrival date, and that gives viewers a clear planning point instead of a vague renewal window. For anyone who already watched Season 1, the practical takeaway is simple: the next chapter is dated, the core cast is intact, and Deli Boys is coming back with the same setup that earned its 96% reception in the first place.
