Divyanka Tripathi, who pretended to be possessed by a ghost in 'Ye Hai Mohabbatein', says, "When I was told that Shagun's spirit will enter my body, I was very shocked because our show had always kept everything very real. But then in the end, it was revealed that my character was just acting in order to save the life of her husband, whose murder was being plotted. We've never promoted superstition or the concept of black magic. In fact, when a tantrik baba came to 'cure' my character while she was possessed, we showed how they put chemicals in the fire so that it changes colour."
'Ye Hai Mohabbatein'- The daily soap turned into a horror show for a few episodes, before it went to being a crime thriller. After Anita Hassanandani's character was shown committing suicide, Divyanka Tripathi's character was shown as being possessed by the former's spirit. Later, it turned out that Anita and Divyanka were just putting on a show to find out who was trying to plot against Divyanka's family.
