Mohit Sehgal on knowing Preetika Rao since ‘BeIntehaa’

Popular television star, Mohit Sehgal returned to our screens today with Star Plus’ afternoon show ‘Love Ka Hai Intezaar’, which went through a generation leap.

In an interview with Raj Baddhan on Sabras Radio’s Drivetime show, Sehgal said spoke about his co-star, Preetika Rao, who he said he knows from ‘BeIntehaa’ days. Fans would recall that ‘BeIntehaa’ was Rao’s debut show. Sehgal said he was the initial choice for the character that was then later played by Harshad Arora.

In the interview, he said, “So not a lot of people know that I met Preetika during her first show ‘BeIntehaa’ – we were shooting for a mock shoot for that show and I was almost final but then something happened and it got changed. So I couldn’t do the show but that’s where I met Preetika first and not this show (Love Ka Hai Intezaar). So when we did the mock shoot for this show (Love Ka Hai Intezaar), she was laughing look at me, I was laughing looking at her, thinking we had met then. So finally we’re together and working together.”

Sehgal also spoke about his character Aayan in detail without giving much away, describing him “mysterious”. He also spoke fondly about his wife Sanaya Irani and the ‘Nach Baliye 8’ experience.
