Ekta Kapoor shared that Karrle Tu Bhi Mohabbat, starring Ram Kapoor and Sakshi Tanwar, will replace Kumkum Bhagya and Kundali Bhagya during the lockdown.

The television industry has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic. With all shoots stalled till April 15 at least, many daily soaps have exhausted their episode bank and channels are banking on re-runs till the situation returns to normalcy.

Karrle Tu Bhi Mohabbat tells the story of superstar Karan Khanna (Ram Kapoor), who takes a trip to Mahabaleshwar with his strict counsellor Dr Tripurasundari Nagrajan aka Tipsy (Sakshi Tanwar). How an unlikely romance blossoms between the two, who are polar opposites of each other, forms the crux of the show.

 

Ekta earlier shared that all administrative and production work across her production houses - Balaji Telefilms, Balaji Motion Pictures and ALTBalaji - has been halted until further notice. “Amongst many firsts, this is the first time we have shut office, as the team worked even during the floods, terror attacks and bank holidays. But today is not about spirit, but safety!” she wrote in an Instagram post, announcing the shutdown.
