Now, a reliable source informs us that Rashmi Sharma is keen to have Sidharth Shukla on board to play the main lead on the show.
“Sidharth is the first choice to play the male lead on Saath Nibhaana Saathiya 2. The makers are currently in the process of enabling a discussion with him. The discussion is currently on a very primary level but if things work out, his fans would be in for a surprise,” a source claimed.
This new season is going to be set in today’s time and will be treated modernly unlike the previous one which has become a meme fest. The producer is leaving no stone unturned to ensure that the show boasts of a stellar cast.
Also as per an entertainment portal report, the show is looking for a pre-Diwali launch. The previous season aired at an early slot but was one of the most followed shows. The show’s re-run garnered huge TRP numbers during the lockdown, testimony to the popularity of the show.
For the uninitiated, Rupal Patel, who plays Kokila, is currently seen in Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke.
