The first season had Barun romancing Sanaya Irani, and their chemistry was the highlight of the show
Barun Sobti will be back on TV after a gap of five years and it will be with the same show he quit — Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon, but with a difference. This will be the third season of the show, and different from the one he quit! He is probably the only actor whose exit from a show led to it shutting down and conversely is also facilitating his comeback! In an industry where actors quitting or taking a break from a show is frowned upon, this TV heartthrob is an exception.
Barun quit the show at its peak to pursue a career in films and made his Bollywood debut with Main Aur Mrs Right. The film did not do well, but the actor’s other film Tu Hai Mera Sunday is making the festival rounds and is slated to release this year. He has been part of two web series — one was a spin-off of Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon and the other was Tanhaiyan — which was a hit on the digital platform. No wonder for the third season, the makers have got him back and this time as an anti-hero!
Says Barun, “Though my character is called Advay Raizada he has nothing to do with Arnav Raizada (the character he played in the first one). My character is more of an anti-hero with a tragic past. He is the kind who doesn’t like to hold back. Some of the things may not be favourable, but he goes ahead and does them. There’s a dark side to him.”
The first season had Barun romancing Sanaya Irani, and their chemistry was the highlight of the show. She, however, is not part of the third season and Barun will be romancing another actress Shivani Tomar. When asked if he will miss Sanaya, Barun said, “Sanaya and I are really good friends. As a co-star and for the kind of talented actor she is, I will definitely miss her on the show since our chemistry was highly appreciated. We continue to be good friends after the show and we do meet often! Now, I am hoping to recreate the magic with Shivani. She is a promising actress.”
