Shaheer Sheikh on the massive success of Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke

Shaheer Sheikh is one of the most popular actors on Indian television, who has proved his acting prowess by headlining several successful shows over the years. The handsome hunk, who enjoys a massive fan following in various parts of the world, can be currently seen on Star Plus’ popular show Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke, which is a spin-off of Star Plus’ another successful show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai.

Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke, which hit the airwaves on 18th March 2019, has been performing exceptionally well on TRP charts ever since its launch. And today, the show successfully completed 200 episodes. On the occasion, when an entertainment portal asked Shaheer Sheikh the reason behind the huge success of the show, the actor said, “I think the makers have struck the right chord. Almost every group can relate to this show is what I feel. There is something for everyone.”

Sheikh has played a number of characters ever since he made his debut. When asked if he finds any difficulty in bringing in new nuances to his character on YRHPK, the actor said, “I have always tried to keep Abir real. Difficult, maybe not, but exciting, yes! Whenever there is something new, different emotions, it is exciting. Post leap, for the first 10-15 days, I was so excited, I would suggest like 10 things at a time and the director would get perplexed. I was quite excited about that. I would go home and constantly think about it, what trait I can put, what background score we can put. Whenever there is something new and exciting as an actor, I love it.”

Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke is produced by Rajan Shahi of Director’s Kut Productions.
