Post Sushant Singh Rajput the role of Manav has been taken up by Hiten Tejwani and Karan Veer Mehra also.
Lokhande while speaking on the new season said, “The only change is that my character is a confident, working girl in the new version. She is not weak and she is now a bit more vocal about her love for Manav. She now expresses her feelings."
In an Instagram post Shaheer opened up about how he was ‘reluctant’ to step into SSR's shoes and SSR will always be the real Manav. “Then I thought, knowing Sushant he was one to take every challenge head on. And so I decided that while it is scary to step into his shoes & live up to audience expectations… it is scarier to NOT even try. And so I did what I felt he would do, if he was in my position. I took the challenge,” he wrote.
For fans, this new season is going to be an emotional ride. Pavitra Rishta 2.0 will premiere on ZEE5 on 15 September. Check out the trailer of the series here:
