Due
to
the
COVID-19
lockdown,
shoots
of
TV
serials
had
to
put
their
shows
on
hold
for
more
than
two
months
now
resulting
in
huge
financial
losses
for
channels
and
producers.
This
resulted
in
Sony
TV
abruptly
cancelling
Beyhadh
2,
Patiala
Babes,
and
Ishaaron
Ishaaron
Mein
followed
by
Star
Plus
pulling
the
plug
on
three
of
its
shows
including
Gul
Khan’s
Nazar
2
due
to
the
unprecedented
situation
caused
by
the
pandemic.
On
the
other
hand,
a
few
other
channels
have
announced
budget
cuts
and
a
complete
overhaul
of
their
show’s
storylines
and
lead
actors
in
an
effort
to
boost
viewership.
For
the
unversed,
the
TV
fraternity
has
now
got
permission
to
resume
the
shoot
of
shows
with
minimum
staff
and
by
following
the
necessary
safety
measures.
In
the
same
vein,
according
to
a
Times
of
India
report,
Guddan
Tumse
Na
Ho
Paayega
will
take
a
time
leap
of
around
20
years
post
lockdown.
The
Zee
TV
show
will
be
revamped
by
the
introduction
of
new
faces.
However,
leading
actress
Kanika
Mann
will
stay
put
in
the
revamped
version
but
the
main
lead
Nishant
Malkani
will
make
his
exit.
Producer
Ved
Raj
confirmed
the
same
and
said,
“This
decision
has
nothing
to
do
with
the
lockdown.
We
had
planned
to
introduce
a
time
leap
and
a
new
track
much
before
that.
We
realized
that
there
was
nothing
left
to
explore
in
the
original
story.
The
new
storyline
seems
promising.
It’s
just
that
the
plan
couldn’t
be
executed
earlier
because
everything
came
to
a
halt
owing
to
the
lockdown.”
Nishant
spoke
about
his
exit
to
SpotBoyE
and
added,
“Post
leap
they
will
be
showing
a
story
of
a
young
girl
who
is
supposedly
Guddan
and
my
daughter.
Since
Kanika
will
be
playing
the
daughter's
role
as
well,
it
makes
sense
for
her
but
doesn't
leave
much
scope
for
me.
I
won't
be
able
to
play
a
50-year-old
father
and
they
also
don't
want
me
to
play
that
at
this
age.
So
it's
a
mutual
decision.”
