MUMBAI: The talented actress plays Shristi in Zee TV’s Kundali Bhagya As we stepped into the new normal as the lockdown rules were relaxed, Zee TV resumed shoots of its popular shows and reconnected its audiences with the journeys of their beloved characters. Kundali Bhagya, which has been the top-most show of the Indian Television industry, also offered a rather interesting twist to its viewers after its comeback. The wedding drama in Karan (Dheeraj Dhoopar) and Preeta’s (Shraddha Arya) lives kept the audience on the edge of their seats. In fact, the new entry of Pawan (Ankit Gupta) created havoc in #PreeRan's (as they are fondly addressed) life as he along with Mahira (Swati Kapoor) kidnapped Preeta.
Post the kidnapping sequence and the drama surrounding it, the audience was in for a sweet and romantic treat as Karan - Preeta surprised everyone with a romantic dance sequence. While the audience seems to adore Karan and Preeta's onscreen jodi, another adorable onscreen couple that has caught the viewer’s attention is Shristi (Anjum Fakih) and Sameer's (Abhishek Kapur) jodi. The duo looks sizzling together and their chemistry is something viewers love to watch. While they share a great bond onscreen, Abhishek Kapur and Anjum Fakih have developed a great camaraderie off-screen as well. However, did you know that they weren't friends initially. In fact, having started their relationship on a strictly professional note, they didn't become friends for nearly a year. Lately, the duo has started to bond a lot and have become extremely close buddies.
Talking about their equation, Abhishek Kapur who plays the role of Sameer in Zee TV's Kundali Bhagya revealed, “I have massive respect for Anjum. I remember when I shot my first scene with her for Kundali Bhagya, she made me feel extremely comfortable as I was quite nervous. In the beginning, our bond was limited to professional note and it was strictly a formal equation. Anjum and I weren't friends for nearly six to seven months after we started shooting. We never even got the chance to hang out with each other. However, our friendship became stronger during the second year of Kundali Bhagya as we started to know each other and chill with each other. I have spent lot of time with Anjum off-screen now and we really enjoy together a lot and are the best of friends.
Anjum Fakih also added, “Abhishek, I feel is very reserved as a person and it takes him time to get comfortable, especially in new environments. Me being the bang opposite of him, helped ease out the situation for both of us. While initially we never got to hang out, I only had immense respect and love for Abhishek, and I admired working with him. He’s such a great actor and he has been slaying in the role of Sameer. I must say that our bond started getting stronger once we started to spend time with each other off screen and I enjoy Abhishek’s company a lot. He's very entertaining and fun to be around and I consider him one of my closest friends.”
While Anjum and Abhishek bond offscreen, their equation in Kundali Bhagya is also getting stronger by the day. After PreeRan's marriage, what will happen ShrishMeer's life?
