Amit Thakur and Kanika Dang in Yeh Pyaar Nibhayenge Hum

Dheeraj Kumar’s ambitious project Yeh Pyaar Nibhayenge Hum, starring TV heartthrob Karan Wahi and sexy siren Reema Wohra as leads, has created a lot of buzz in the world of television. Media pundits believe that the soap has potential to rake in great reviews and numbers. Now, the latest news is that the maker (Dheeraj Kumar’s Creative Eye) has decided to bring in Amit Thakur and Kanika Dang to play significant roles. Amit Thakur, who will also be seen in Shashi-Sumeet Mittal’s Punar Vivah on Zee TV, has been signed to play the role of the female lead, Reema Wohra’s, father. His character will be of a Haryanvi man who is strict in nature and likes to do things in his own way. When contacted Amit Thakur, he confirmed his entry but refused to divulge any further. Furthermore, Kanika Dang – who is currently seen in Star Plus’ Sasural Genda Phool – will be playing Karan Mehra’s mother. It is believed that her character is loosely inspired from politician Sushma Swaraj (BJP). She will maintain a perfect balance between her professional and personal life. “Yes, I am part of the show. It is a very different and challenging character and I am glad that I got this opportunity,” said Kanika. Tellychakkar.com wishes both of them a great stint in the show. But on the other hand, we were wondering that the pilot episodes have been shot a few months back, yet there has been no news when the show will hit the screens. In between, rumour mills were also spreading the word around that Yeh Pyaar…might not see the light at the end of the tunnel. So we decided to talk to Dheeraj Kumar and clear the air. “The show will be on air in the next couple of months. Talks are on with Star Plus and launching a show takes time. It doesn’t happen overnight. I am hopeful and excited about the soap and I am sure it will entertain the masses,” said the producer. Well, there you go. Gear up all Karan Wahi fans for some high-dose entertainment in the coming months. Cheers!!!
