Development

In June 2018, there were reports of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai getting a spin-off. However, producer Rajan Shahi denied it.[18] But, the plan for a spin-off was announced in January 2019.[19] Talking about it producer Rajan Shahi said, "We are working on a spin-off of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, which completed 10 years recently. Sheikh has been signed on to play the male lead. He will be seen in a dynamic role, which will be different from his previous outings. I realised that some characters from the original show deserve to be explored further."[20]

The team had a havan on their sets on 21 February 2019, for an auspicious beginning to their new journey.[21]

In February 2019, Shivangi Joshi introduced Rhea Sharma as Mishti.[22] Soon, in March 2019, a promo based on marriage and courtship featuring Rhea Sharma, Lata Sabharwal, Sanjeev Seth, Pooja Joshi Arora, Kshitee Jog and Medha Jambodhkar was released.[23] Later, rapper and singer Badshah with some female characters of other shows of Star Plus promoted the show along with Rhea Sharma.[24] The next promo featured Shaheer Sheikh and Rhea Sharma with the song sung by Badshah.[25] Days before its premiere, another promo featuring both on a roof of a bus was released.[26]

Casting

Rhea Sharma was selected to portray Mishti and Shaheer Sheikh to portray Abir.[27][28] Shaheer Sheikh expressed

“I relate to Abir’s character in so many ways and I love the fact that more than anything else, he wants to bring equality in the society. He wants all the parents to treat their kids the same way irrespective of their gender. He believes everyone has the right after a certain age to make their own decisions and follow what they believe. He is aware how in certain sections of our society the voice of women can be suppressed and he wants to support them,”[29]

Rhea Sharma stated that she can relate her character to Deepika Padukone’s character Naina from the film Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.[30] Talking about the show, Rhea Sharma said,

"After my previous show, which was also on Star Plus and it was a successful show I was looking to do something that was equally good or something better and bigger and a grand show with a good script and a different character. I was approached for the spin-off and I came to know that the character I was approached for is a spin-off and it is very different from what I have done on my previous shows. Actually, the character and the script and the association with Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai is something that made me extremely excited for the show. And of course, it is a Rajan Shahi show, and he makes great shows, and I believe in his vision. And that's it, I met sir, I was narrated the character and the show, and I was happy."[31]

Lata Sabharwal, Sanjeev Seth, Pooja Joshi Arora, Akshaya Naik, Amardeep Jha, Kshitee Jog, Shivangi Joshi and Mohsin Khan reprise their respective roles from the parent series Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai as Rajshri, Vishambharnath, Varsha, Ananya, Shankari, Devyaani, Naira and Kartik respectively.[32] Jay Pathak, Samir Sharma and Soniya Kaur were cast as Naman, Shaurya and Jasmeet which were earlier played by Anshul Pandey, Yash Gera and Shirin Sewani in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai.[33][34][35]

Besides Kaveri Priyam, Ritvik Arora, Rupal Patel, Deepak Gheewala, Sangeeta Kapure, Sanjeev Jotangia, Chaitrali Gupte, Trishaa Chatterjee and Shashwat Tripati were cast.[36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43]

Rupal Patel related her role Meenakshi Rajvansh and her previous well known role Kokila Modi in Saath Nibhana Saathiya as twins stating, "I would say that Kokila and Meenakshi are like twins. While Kokila was traditional and orthodox, Meenakshi is sophisticated and educated. However, both want the best for their families and feel that they are always right. I was completely bowled over by the character of Meenakshi and the way it has been written, when Rajan Sir offered me the role. It has a lot of depth. I had to prep for the part."[44]

Earlier, Harshad Arora was in talks for playing Abir while Tushar Khanna was supposed to play Kunal. But Shaheer Sheikh and Ritvik Arora replaced them.[45]

Palak Purswani was cast to play Kunal's former girlfriend Shweta in July 2019.[46] Sameer Dharmadhikari was roped to play Abir's father, Mehul in September 2019.[47] In November 2019, Helly Shah was roped for a cameo as Neha.[48] Vatsal Sheth entered soon after as Nishant Maheshwari and quit on 5 February 2020 with the end of his role.[49][50] When the filming resumed after three months in late June after indefinite halt owing COVID-19 outbreak, Ruslaan Mumtaz and Seema Pandey were cast.[51] In the last week of July 2020, Producer Rajan Shahi confirmed replacing Arora after discussions stalled between the actor and studio during the COVID-19 outbreak.[52] Avinash Mishra was brought in to replace Arora.[53] The character Shaurya played by Samir Sharma was not seen in the series post-shoot resuming with his death in August 2020.[54]

Filming

Based on the backdrop of Gujarat, set in Rajkot, the series is mainly filmed at the sets created in Film City at Mumbai.[55] Some of the initial sequences were shot at Bhuj, Gujarat.[56]

The show is set in Rajkot, Gujarat. The team had shot some initial scenes in Bhuj and Kutch of Gujarat. Stating about it Rajan Shahi says, “We wanted to extend the show beyond Rajasthan and decided to add the vibrancy of Gujarat. My entire creative team explored the region, including various markets of Kutch, to capture the region flawlessly in our show. We have included various artworks, handicrafts, handlooms and the aesthetics of Kutch. Just like Kartik and Naira, I am looking at creating Abir and Mishti as the next sought after couple on Hindi television!”[57]

Release

A promo was released, featuring the lead, Rhea Sharma and the female members of Singhania, Maheshwari and Goenka families with Badshah. The promo has a rap sung by Badshah.[58] A peppy song was released wherein, Shaheer quizzes Rhea on how someone can marry by just knowing them over a cup of tea.[59]

Broadcast

The production and airing of the show was halted indefinitely in late March 2020 due to the COVID-19 outbreak in India.[60][61] Because of the outbreak, the filming of television series and films was halted on 19 March 2020 and expected to resume on 1 April 2020 which was not feasible and the series was last broadcast on 25 March 2020 when the remaining episodes were aired.[62][63][64] The production and filming of the series resumed after three months on 26 June 2020.[65][66] The airing of the series resumed from 13 July 2020, being switched from its earlier 10:00 pm (IST) slot to 9:00pm (IST) slot and the 10:00 pm (IST) slot was given to new show Anupamaa of the same production house(which was earlier planned at 9:00PM slot).[67][68]

Cancellation

On 18 September 2020, the series' cancellation was confirmed after the ratings dropped drastically, exiting the top 20 Hindi GECs, when the series was shifted to 9:00 pm (IST) from its earlier 10:00 pm (IST) slot post-COVID-19 break.[69][70] The shooting of the series was completed on 10 October 2020 and the series aired its last episode on 17 October 2020, before being replaced by Saath Nibhaana Saathiya 2.[71]

Shaheer Sheikh thanked Rhea Sharma for being the Mishti to his Abir. He said, "Bringing a love story to life means having someone who understands and feeds off your energy. You made ‘Abir’ come to life, by being ‘Mishti’.. together we tried to create something fun, meaningful & hopeful. The world looked at Ajib Rajvansh through ur eyes."[72][73]

With the show going off-air Rhea Sharma said "I will miss playing Mishti a lot, she was and will always be close to my heart."[74][75]

The shows fans protested to the show going off-air. There was widespread anger.[76] In September 2020, one of its fan attempted suicide after knowing that the show will end soon.[77]

Crossover

Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai and Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke had an integration from 12 March 2019 to 16 March 2019.[78] Rhea Sharma and Kaveri Priyam as grown-up versions of Mishti and Kuhu(replacing Aarna Sharma and Yamini Makwana as teenaged versions) respectively were introduced during the integration.[79][80]

Reception

Critical reception

Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke generally received positive reviews from the critics.[81][82]

Pinkvilla stated "The makers have managed to strike a balance between the young and the old. Shaheer Sheikh and Rhea Sharma's show lets love brew in a carefully woven drama."[83][84]

Controversies

Shaheer Sheikh's poetry issue

Shaheer recently got himself embroiled in a controversy wherein he was accused for claiming of writing a poetry for his show. The original writer of it called out to him after this action, and the actor released a statement apologizing for the same.[85]

Ritvik Arora's controversial exit

Ritvik Arora quit the show in July 2020. On Ritvik being out of the show, Rajan Shah claimed Ritvik Arora has been unprofessional in his conduct. He said:[86]

When a production member had reached out to Ritvik recently, he asked them to speak to his father, which in itself is unprofessional. The contract was signed with Ritvik and not his father, so any discussing should be with him. When his father was contacted, he asked for a raise in his remuneration, almost double of what he was being paid and also a minimum 25-day work guarantee. What’s really wrong is the way he communicated it saying, Don’t even think of calling back if you want to negotiate.

Ritvik on his part said,

"There is absolutely no reason for me to leave the show because it’s such a good opportunity. This is a case of miscommunication and misunderstanding."[87]
