Bhagya is a very interesting story of two friends, who eventually turn into enemies. Hanif is Aditya's friend; we will show their journey from 22 to 64. The show is set in 1964 and will cover till 2007, so we wanted someone to portray this drastic change of look and expression very well. Rushad was part of our Jaipur shoot. Viraf Patel plays Aditya and both will have their separate tracks in the show."
