Yeh Pyaar Na Hoga Kam-Delhi 6, same pinch?

Yeh Pyaar Na Hoga Kam is a Creative Eye production which is soon going on Colors. Gaurav Khanna and Yami Gautam play the lead couple. One look at the promos and it comes across as a small town love story,something similar to Delhi 6,especially the recent teaser which has Gaurav’s character, Abeer reading a book on a terrace like Abhishek Bachchan did in the movie. While Yami is drying her hair (thankfully not spitting like Sonam Kapoor did in the film), Abeer stares at her. Producer Dheeraj Kumar justifies the similarity, if any. “It is a matter of perception actually. We have erected a very big and expensive set,at Filmcity and at that time we never thought it looked like a particular movie. Viewers might find them similar because in the North,they have big houses and our show is set in Lucknow, which is pretty close to Delhi, but it’s just a coincidence." About the show he says, “We are in the 21st century but the caste system still exists in our society. Till date, people would rather marry their children off in the same community. We want to pass the message that we are living in a modern world and things like this should change now for the better. Our society can do without these notions.” Gaurav refuses to see any similarities between the show and the film saying, “I have seen promos of my show but I have not seen the movie,so I don’t know whether they are similar. Besides, I am not allowed to talk much about this show.” We also felt Gaurav’s dressing style in the show is more on the lines of Abhishek’s. Well, the film didn’t do anything for us, here’s hoping the show will impress us.
