Rhea is good but Harshad????

LOL a spin off? How I wish they make this show as simple as they did back in 2009 with Naitik Akshara. But I guess it's too much to ask. 

Rhea is really good! 

It has been reported that the makers of the popular and long-running show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' are all set to launch its spin-off soon. While Harshad Arora and Rhea Sharma have been approached to play lead couple, we have learnt that Tushar Khanna, too, will be a part of the show. The talented actor will play Harshad's younger brother on the show, which is expected to go on floors soon.

A source associated with the project tells us, "The story of the show will revolve around two brothers and two sisters. Harshad and Tushar, who will play siblings and will be poles apart from each other. While Rhea will be paired opposite Harshad, Kaveri Priyam has been cast to play Tushar's heroine in the spin-off.

Despite repeated attempts, we couldn't reach Tushar for comment. The actor, who has featured on Piyaa Albela' and was last seen on Bhootu'.

I dont know how i feel about a spin off 

Spin off with grown up kids???? 

Ever since the news of the long-running show, 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' ('YRKHH') getting a spin-off made headlines, speculations have been rife over who will play the male lead. Now, BT has exclusively learnt that actor Shaheer Sheikh, who was last seen on the historical show, 'Dastaan-E-Mohabbat Salim Anarkali', has been roped in to play the male lead.

Producer Rajan Shahi confirms, "We are working on a spin-off of 'YRKHH', which completed 10 years, recently. Shaheer has been signed on to play the male lead. He will be seen in a dynamic role, which will be different from his previous outings. I realised that some characters from the original show deserve to be explored further in the spin-off. The title of the new show is yet to be finalised.

On his part, Shaheer says, "Yes, I have been in talks with the production house, but I was in Jammu over the past few days. I will be returning to Mumbai today, and will take things forward.

The show is expected to go on floors in a couple of weeks.

excited for this , shaheer sheikh is a wonderful actor , waiting for the confirmation of female lead.  Nowadays , first hate-then love , love stories have become so common , every story is like that , akshara-naitik's story was an arranged marriage love story , hope the spin off has a similar kind of arranged marriage love story which is not so common nowadays
