“I completely understand their emotions because they were so deeply connected to the show. But well, what can we do now? It’s not in our hands.”
“Regarding all the immense love I’m receiving from people: I never, in my wildest dreams, expected that people would speak so highly of me. People have showered me with so much love right from the very beginning of my journey. It has truly been an honor that so many people have given me such affection, placed such faith in my work and my projects, and loved my shows so much. So, I just feel incredibly grateful for all of this.”
When asked about the reason behind the show going off-air despite strong audience attachment, Sumbul clarified that the decision was entirely beyond the cast’s control.
“We have absolutely nothing to do with that decision. I believe it was a decision made by the channel, because, apart from that factor, our show was actually doing quite well.”
Beyond the emotional farewell, Sumbul also shared several fun behind-the-scenes moments from the set, revealing the playful bond the cast shared during filming.
“Best memories I think whenever we weren’t shooting our scenes, we used to have a lot of fun together. There were several mango trees on our set, so sometimes we would grab a large stick and use it to pluck mangoes. Once, Rajat and I even climbed up onto the roof of our vanity van while running around and chasing each other! So, it was all about playing around and goofing off together; we even used to have Pani Puri parties every now and then.”
One of the most talked-about aspects of the show was Sumbul Touqeer’s chemistry and friendship with co-star Rajat Verma, and the actress admitted that she will deeply miss working with him.
“I will definitely miss Rajat, as he has become a very good friend of mine through this show. We’ve had so much fun together and have shot some truly lovely scenes side-by-side. I believe he is a wonderful co-actor to work with; he made me feel very comfortable and was very funny at the same time though also very annoying at the very same time!”
While the curtain may have fallen on the series, it’s clear that the emotional bond between the audience and the cast, especially Sumbul Touqeer and Rajat Verma, will continue to live on long after the final episode aired.
