Sima Mami is back — Indian Matchmaking will return later this year for a second season. The first season of the Emmy-nominated show, which premiered in July 2020, followed top Mumbai matchmaker Sima Taparia as she used traditional and modern matchmaking techniques on eight romantic hopefuls — Aparna Shewakramani, Nadia Christina Jagessar, Vyasar Ganesan, Akshay Jakhete, Rupam Kaur, Ankita Bansal, Pradhyuman Maloo and Vinay Chadha — living in the United States and India. The second season will include “some familiar faces and new singletons across the globe who have decided that it’s time to put their love lives in the hands of the expert.”

“I was totally surprised by the response to the first season of Indian Matchmaking,” Taparia told Netflix. “I’m overwhelmed by the love I’ve gotten, and the appreciation for Indian culture and values. I know fans will love what’s coming in Season 2!” 

The show has already been renewed for a third season, coming soon. 

But the dating fest won’t stop there. Cue “Tradition” because we’re introducing Jewish Matchmaking, a new series from the producers of Indian Matchmaking that will feature “singles in the US and Israel as they turn their dating life over to a top Jewish matchmaker.” The new series, which doesn’t have a premiere date yet, asks: “Will using the traditional practice of shidduch help them find their soulmate in today’s world?” 

Check out all the upcoming Netflix reality dating series below, as Netflix matchmaker-in-chief Nick Lachey pays tribute to the power of love.
