Cast

Production

In November 2008, the shootings and telecast of all the Hindi television series including this series and films were stalled on 8 November 2008 due to dispute by the technician workers of FWICE (Federation of Western India Cine Employees) for increasing the wages, better work conditions and more breaks between shootings.[2] FWICE first took a strike on 1 October 2008 when they addressed their problems with the producers and production was stalled.[3] A contract was signed after four days discussions and shooting was happening only for two hours content in a day, after which differences increased between them while channels gave them time until 30 October 2008 to sort it out.[4] Failing to do so lead to protests again from 10 November 2008 to 19 November 2008 during which channels blacked out new broadcasts and repeat telecasts were shown from 10 November 2008.[5][6] On 19 November 2008, the strike was called off after settling the disputes and the production resumed.[7] The new episodes started to telecast from 1 December 2008.[8][9]
