“Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin” is gearing up for another major leap, which will see the departure of Shakti Arora, Sumit Singh, and the entire Bhosale family. Notably, Bhavika Sharma will remain part of the show post-leap. Pinkvilla recently caught up with actor Vijhay Badlaani to discuss his thoughts on the upcoming changes, his bond with the cast, and more.
In an exclusive interview, Vijhay Badlaani opened up about the emotional turmoil he has faced recently. “Not many people know that I recently lost my mother in March. The recent months have been very difficult for me, however, I found my solace on the sets of ‘Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin.’ The cast and crew really supported me during this tough time, and I was committed to dedicating the upcoming years to the show. However, with the sudden leap, we are all together for the last few days. It will be a painful departure for me,” Badlaani shared.
He further elaborated on the support he received from the production house and cast. “Since I was going through a personal battle, I would only report on sets for a few hours and leave to be with my mother in the hospital. The production house was very accommodating and understood my situation. Even the cast was very supportive and didn’t show any traces of jealousy as the production house adjusted my schedule.”
“The emotional support from Pankaj sir, Nimai Sir, and Vaishali Ma’am was immense. Even Shakti was there for me. We were a big happy family, and bidding goodbye to them will surely be tough,” he added.
The announcement of the leap came as a surprise to many, including Badlaani. “The leap news came as a shocker for us. We were at a 2.1 rating, and taking a leap at this point didn’t add up for most of us. Having said that, I have had an amazing journey so far on the show, and I will always cherish the happy memories.”
Reflecting on the last day of shooting, Badlaani admitted, “I’m surely going to cry because I’m an emotional person. Let’s see how things unfold.”
As the show prepares for its new phase, reports confirm that Hitesh Bharadwaj will join Bhavika Sharma and Karavir Bohra in “Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin.” Pinkvilla exclusively revealed that actress Kaveri Priyam will play a parallel lead, with Varun Jain, Pallavi Pradhan, and Sagar Saini also joining the primary cast.
The upcoming leap in “Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin” marks a significant transition, filled with mixed emotions for the cast and crew. Vijhay Badlaani’s heartfelt reflections highlight the strong bonds formed on set and the challenges of saying goodbye. As the show embarks on its new journey, fans eagerly await the fresh storylines and new characters that will continue to captivate their hearts.
