MUMBAI: Nakuul Mehta is geared up for the new phase in Ishqbaaaz, and his new avatar will make you excited as well as curious about his role in the show.

For the uninitiated, the soap is set to take a generation leap soon on 17th December. With this, actors like Surbhi Chandna, Mansi Srivastava, and Kunal Jasingh will be exiting from the show. Only Nakuul Mehta will remain a part of the soap. However, post the leap, Surbhi will be seen in flashbacks for around a month.

And the makers have weaved a new role for Nakuul. He will be seen essaying the character of Shivaay's son, Shivaansh Singh Oberoi, a superstar. In addition, the team has roped in a newbie to pair with him in the show.

To treat fans, the channel has shared an image of Nakuul in the get-up of a superstar on social media and written, ‘Once you lay eyes on him, you'll be a fan! Ishqbaaaz - Pyaar Ki Ek DHINCHAAK Kahani, releasing 17th Dec at 10pm only.’

Take a look at the post.
