Star
Plus'
popular
show
Ishqbaaz
depicted
the
life
and
journey
of
the
Oberoi
brothers
-
Nakuul
Mehta,
Kunal
Jaisingh
and
Leenesh
Mattoo,
who
played
the
roles
of
Shivaay,
Omkara
and
Rudra.
The
show
had
a
great
run
and
has
been
in
news
since
inception.
Ishqbaaz
broke
a
few
stereotypes
and
also
dealt
with
this
strong
yet
sensitive
issue
that
the
society
faces
successfully.
The
lead
couple
-
Shivaay
and
Anika's
'kidkitodh'
chemistry
was
loved
by
the
viewers.
But,
the
makers
introduced
generation
leap
to
improve
the
ratings
and
the
lead
actress
Surbhi
quit
the
show.
The
show
didn't
show
any
improvement
post
leap,
even
after
interesting
characters
and
storyline
was
introduced.
Recently,
we
reported
that
the
show
is
going
off
air
soon.
The
producer
of
the
show,
Gul
Khan
also
confirmed
the
same.
She
praised
Nakuul
and
said
that
no
one
would
have
played
the
role
of
Shivaay
like
Nakuul
did.
She
also
thanked
the
viewers
for
the
show's
success.
Now,
Nakuul
has
taken
to
social
media
to
bid
goodbye
to
the
show.
He
penned
down
an
emotional
post
and
called
his
journey
on
the
show
as
'epic'!

Nakuul
Mehta
Aka
Shivaay/Shivansh
Writes…
"3
years.
Over
750
Episodes.
Over
1000
shifts.
99999
litres
of
sweat
&
blood
(Subtle
exaggeration)
And
Infinite
love.
Last
two
weeks
of
Ishqbaaaz
until
we
air
our
finale
episode
on
15th
March.
It's
difficult
to
contain
the
myriad
of
emotion
running
inside
of
me
and
yet
words
elude
me."

Nakuul
Bids
Goodbye
To
Ishqbaaz
"If
I
was
to
ask
the
lad
in
the
picture,
circa
2015
(at
the
pilot
shoot
of
IB)
if
the
journey
was
everything
he
had
imagined,
he'd
reply
with
an
even
more
emphatic
smile,
today."

‘There
Were
Hard
Days…’
"I
take
the
liberty
to
say
this
on
behalf
of
the
entire
cast
&
crew,
that
we
gave
it
our
all.
There
were
no
half
measures.
We
tried,
we
did,
we
failed,
we
succeeded.
There
were
hard
days,
and
then
there
were
great
days
but
the
greatest
of
'em
all
was
to
just
be
on
set
each
day
doing
what
we
all
loved
doing."

Nakuul
Calls
Ishqbaaz’s
Journey
As
Epic
"All
I
feel
right
now
is
overwhelming
gratitude
for
all
the
lives
who
collaborated
on
this
epic
journey
and
the
ones
embraced
this
as
your
own.

all
of
'you',
