What Happened to Cinta Kaz in Andor S02E06? Ending Explained

Curious what happened to Cinta Kaz in Andor Season 2? As the rebellion intensifies and the Ghorman heist unfolds, tensions between the rebels and locals lead to unexpected consequences. With emotional reunions and mounting risks, Cinta finds herself at the center of one of the season’s most pivotal moments.

Here’s a full breakdown of Cinta’s role in Episode 6 and how her mission on Ghorman unfolds.

How does Andor’s Cinta Kaz die in Season 2 Episode 6?

Yes, Cinta Kaz dies after Samm accidentally shoots her during the Ghorman heist.

Samm, a young and inexperienced member of the Ghorman Front, fires his blaster during a scuffle with local protester Lezine, accidentally hitting Cinta Kaz in the chest and killing her instantly. Vel and the remaining rebels abort the mission and carry her body back in their vehicle.

Vel directly blames Samm for Cinta’s death and tells him, “You’ll make up for this forever,” emphasizing that his careless actions cost the life of a seasoned fighter. She further tells him that it’s disgraceful someone like Cinta died at the hands of “a wimpy guy.” The heist had otherwise gone as planned, with Cinta successfully stopping the automated truck carrying weapons using explosives. However, despite Vel and Cinta’s insistence that only they carry blasters, Samm had smuggled in a weapon.

Cinta and Vel rekindle their relationship and agree to confront Luthen together, refusing to remain pawns in his plans. Earlier in the episode, Cinta recalls an injury from a past mission that sidelined her and forced her to re-evaluate her purpose. She tells Vel she no longer wants to serve solely as a weapon for the Rebellion and now fights for a future they can share.

This is Cinta’s final appearance in Andor. Actress Varada Sethu said in an interview, “It made perfect sense to me,” and emphasized how sudden losses reflect the nature of war (via ELLE). As shown in the episode, Cinta’s death provides the Empire with justification to escalate its crackdown on Ghorman. The Front’s acquisition of weapons now allows the ISB to label the rebels as violent insurgents.
