Karan Singh Grover and Surbhi Jyoti starrer Qubool Hai 2.O is all set to stream on ZEE5 soon. The show not just became popular eight years back but also gained immense fan following for Karan and Surbhi as Asad and Zoya.

And now, before we witness their sizzling chemistry once again, we got talking with Karan Singh Grover about his comeback and more. Here's what all he revealed to us:

How does it feel to play Asad again?

I was really very excited. This character is close to my heart. And I have worked really hard for it but loved playing it.

Did you find any difficulty in playing the same character after a gap of 8 years?

Not at all. Actually this character was always with me and when they approached me for Qubool Hai 2.0, it wasn't difficult because it's built in me just like a few things that you never forget in your life. It stayed with me forever.

The show was launched 8 years back and had a successful run of four years. What according to you has made this show so popular?

I think the creator of Qubool Hai, Gul Khan, who actually created the show and the characters. The skill and level of creation Gul has is unmatched. She is very good at what she does. She keeps learning new things all the time and evolving everyday. Along with that, the hard work which Surbhi, the entire team and I invested in it, helped the show to reach where it reached.

Gul is not the part of the series this time. How much did you miss her?

We missed her a lot. It was like things felt quite incomplete without her. Afterall, she is the actual creator of the show.

Qubool Hai is best remembered for your and Surbhi's love chemistry but this time we see thriller portion has been added to it. You feel audience will like it?

That was made in 2013 and right now we are in 2021. Meanwhile, the audience has seen great range and varieties of content. They have evolved in what they watch and what they do. And it's not something that is experimental. This will add more to Asad and Zoya and their story.

How do you feel about the fan following which Asad and Zoya still enjoy?

I feel really blessed and we are very lucky to have so much unconditional love from everyone. It's like our fans never left us and the show didn't go anywhere and we are once again back together. I am actually very grateful to the people who gives us so much of love all the time.

How was your experience shooting in Serbia?

The temperature was around 2 degrees. Some Days it also went to zero degrees also. It was bone chilling cold and because we live in Mumbai we are not habituated to such weather. So, it was crazy because I used to wear layers of warmers inside my pants and shirts. Like I was wearing two pants and two shirts. Although Surbhi deserves an award because she had shot like so many days in that off shoulder wedding costume. She is strong. Shooting was a task but when you see the frame and the shots, it's totally worth it.

Is OTT Karan Singh Grover's comfortable space now?

I am comfortable with the fact that audience are constantly watching me. Wherever it is, it's fine with me. Everything is now becoming digital. All the channels have their own digital platforms. We are moving towards it from a very long time and finally it's happening. I think it has got the boost because of pandemic also. As long as artist I get to perform and tell the story and people are watching, platform really doesn't matter to me.

Where will we see you next?

I have some projects lined up but can't disclose about that at the moment. But yaa it also has Qubool Hai's next season which we will start in few months.

Content on digital space is very debatable. Do you feel showing bold scenes and using crux language is okay?

I feel there is really great content being made now. I really enjoyed watching shows like Mirzapur, Sacred Games. And for those who feel that this content is not apt, you always have an option to not watch. You can watch something else. If we would live in a perfect world where we could only watch stuff that gives joy and raise our vibrations and don't show the actual reality of the world where people are killing, saying and doing bad things, may be living in that scenario would be great but I don't think it's possible.

Any of the scene from Qubool Hai which you still remember?

We actually did a few from the original one in this one. But the first where Asad and Zoya meet, where she falls down and Asad's car is going around in a circle, which we shot at Filmcity, we did the same scene in Serbia for 2.0. Surbhi and I knew the dialogues too. When we started shooting for the scene, she started saying her dialogues and I started saying mine without any rehearsal. In fact, we remembered each other's dialogues also. With every moment we knew the line we have to say and our director was like kya tum log reharse karke aaye ho? And we were like haan 2013 mein reharse kiya tha (laughs). That scene was so ingrained in us that it didn't even take seconds to recollect everything.

DNA Exclusive: 'Qubool Hai 2.0' actor Karan Singh Grover reveals he would like to reprise THIS iconic role

During an Exclusive interaction with DNA, Karan Singh Grover also revealed that he got tested positive for COVID-19 during 'Qubool Hai 2.0' shoot.

One of the most iconic roles Karan Singh Grover played on screen is Asad Ahmed Khan in Zee TV's daily soap Qubool Hai. Now after nearly eight years, the handsome hunk is reprising his role for ZEE5 original web series Qubool Hai 2.0. With this show, Karan is reuniting with Surbhi Jyoti who is reprising her role as Zoya Farooqui in the web show. Ahead of the streaming, we caught up with KSG for a chat where the actor spoke at length about playing Asad again, another role of his he would like to reprise. Karan also described his 17-year journey as an actor and praised Ekta Kapoor for launching him.

Excerpts...

Qubool Hai 2.0 is not a continuation of the TV series but is the character sketch similar to what you played earlier?

It's the same character with the same backstory and the same family. The only difference is that there he was into architecture and civil engineering in that as a profession and this is he is a world champion shooter. This is the reason why he gets picked up by RAW for a particular mission. Like it's in a different universe, Zoya's character is also the same. Her backstory is changed a little bit, her family is changed.

Was it easier or difficult to get back into the same character after a very long time?

Some people might call it, we call it a pro, or a con, it's that I put in a lot of hard work into creating Asad when we first made the show. There's a lot of hard work that I had to do because the character is very different from mine. He is the opposite and is very minimalistic in his expressions, his movements and everything that he does. So there I was like full veiling training that I put into it. The thing is, Asad was always with me, the characters that I really put myself into this stay with me, it's very unhealthy. It's a very heavy character, uske rooh pe bohot wajan hai because of his childhood, so emotionally, it's not a good thing to carry some weight around. But he's always been there. So getting into him was not a problem at all. I'm probably sounding crazy because I'm talking about him as a separate person. I am not really a good actor, I have to be the director when I'm portraying it, otherwise, it feels fake to me and then that will show up. I fear that my audiences see that I'm faking it, it's very unhealthy. But works for me as a profession.

How was it reuniting with Surbhi Jyoti after these many years?

We have been in touch on and off. It was not on an everyday basis as she always been a friend. Firstly, it didn't feel like we are shooting after eight years. It felt like we met yesterday and we shot now, it's the same. You just have that with some people with friends especially.

When you were offered the web series, what was your instant reaction, were you excited to play the iconic character again?

When I first got a call, it was from Gul Khan, she's spoken to me about Qubool Hai 2.0. When we finally began the whole process, she was not a part of i. I was very happy that I got to play Asad again. I was even happier with the fact that it's in a different universe in a different scenario. There are tons of changes, a few things that add an edge adds a few dimensions to it. Everything about it was exciting.

(....)

How was the whole shoot experience as you entirely shot in Serbia for a long schedule?

I knew before going to Serbia how cold it is going to be but you don't really know. We live in Bombay and when I am not in Bombay, I'm on the beach. We're not used to the cold at all, but I need the air conditioning on. Otherwise, I'm in the open, I'm fine. We knew how cold it was going to be but you don't really know what that cold is like till you get there. It was bone-chilling cold, it was like two degrees some days, some days zero degrees. I was like, 'what's the temperature', so they said 'Zero' What does that mean? You have no temperature. Like today, there is no temperature, it's zero. Due to the whole COVID thing, there are so many things that get added. I've had timetables, my whole day starts from the time I wake up at 5 am. So my whole routine is quite ritualistic and there's a lot that COVID has added to it now. During the whole cleansing and wearing the mask, we took all precautions and that was mandatory. But still, two days before the shoot ended, I got COVID-19, but a lot of people on our set got it. Even though they're only 10 people on the set.

“There are a lot of differences and lot of similarities”, Karan Singh Grover on Qubool Hai being aired as a web showByBollywood Hungama News Network

Created: Mar 10, 2021 - 18:49 IST

ZEE5 comes up with new content to entertain the audience. One unique attribute of ZEE5 is that they create spin offs of their most popular TV shows and they have been a raging success, first with Jamai 2.0 and now with Qubool Hai 2.0. The series is all set to release and will see Karan Singh Grover and Surbhi reprise their roles as Asad and Zoya in a new and different scenario.

Karan recently opened up about the TV show being aired as a web series and shared, “There are a lot of differences and lot of similarities in the television show and the web series. When it comes to web series we know what is the character's arc and how we need to play it entirely.”

He further comments and says, “But it changes when we shoot for a television show as we get an update on audience's reaction daily. Also, I didn't really shoot with anybody except for Surbhi from our previous cast, even though we all in the same season we never shot together. I miss shooting with my sister and Amii, I mean Shalini Aunty, as they have become like family to me because we kind of did the show for a year and shot every day.”

Directed by Ankush Mohla and Glen Barretto, the series will feature a new rejuvenated chemistry of Asad and Zoya and by retaining the original leads Karan Singh Grover & Surbhi Jyoti as them. It will also feature Arif Zakaria and Mandira Bedi in pivotal roles.

The 10 episode romantic drama Qubool Hai 2.0 premieres 12th March on ZEE5.
