Sheikh
and
Sonarika
Bhadoria's
Dastaan-E-Mohabbat
has
been
in
the
news
ever
since
it
was
first
launched.
The
historical
show
is
set
against
the
backdrop
of
the
Mughal
era.
The
television
series
revolves
around
the
love
saga
of
the
lead
characters
Salim
and
Anarkali,
played
by
Shaheer
and
Sonarika,
respectively.
Salim
is
a
young
crowned
prince
and
Anarkali
is
a
courtesan,
who
together
fight
for
their
love
against
the
class
barriers.
Colors
TV
recently
released
a
new
teaser
of
Dastaan-E-Mohabbat,
which
showcases
the
blooming
romance
between
Salim
and
Anarkali
with
a
beautiful
track
played
at
the
background.
The
teaser
was
captioned
as,
"Beintehaan

Also,
the
lead
actor
Shaheer
has
been
highly
appreciated
for
his
work
in
Dastaan-E-Mohabbat.
When
the
casting
director
of
the
show
was
asked
as
to
why
Shaheer
was
chosen
for
the
role,
he
said,
"Shaheer
definitely
has
all
the
qualities
required
to
portray
this
character,
and
he
does
his
homework,
which
is
seen
when
he
performs
the
scenes
on
set.
The
response
we
received
for
the
promo
is
overwhelming,
which
makes
me
feel
happy
that
the
casting
has
been
on
point.
I
hope
I
get
opportunities
in
the
future
as
well
to
cast
for
such
epic
shows."
