With the lockdown slowly being lifted and the government allowing the TV and films shoots to resume, many TV shows have already begun working on their routine. Some production houses have already been working on the bank of episodes that need to be shot before the first one is telecast.
The television channels have also started their work in full swing and the cast for some new shows are being finalised too. Star Plus is coming up with a brand new show that had TV actor Sharad Malhotra and Sana Sayyed in the lead roles.
But it was not long before that Sharad walked out and Mohit Malik of Kullfi Kumarr Bajewala fame was roped in to replace him.
According to a Spotboye report, the show was being produced under the banner of Rashmi Sharma Telefilms and would focus on the marriage of a couple during lockdown and how their life gets complicated after their parents come to know about it.
A source told Spotboye, Sharad Malhotra was the first choice for the role but he opted out due to monetary reasons. The source has been quoted by the portal as saying, "Sharad Malhotra was the first choice for the character and was almost finalised however things didn't materialise at the last moment due to monetary reasons. After which, Mohit Malik was brought on board and now he will be romancing Sana on the show. The show will begin shooting next month in August".
