Bade Acche Lagte Hai will soon come up with its season 2 on Sony TV. The show in its first edition depicted the love story of two middle-aged people, who had not gotten to see love in their lives.
Now, with the casting for Season 2 happening, there is news of Nakuul Mehta being finalized to play the male lead. However, the girl opposite Nakuul has not been cast yet.
There were speculations of Divyanka Tripathi being offered the lead role opposite Nakuul. However, there was also news of her having rejected the role.
In a candid talk with ET Times, Divyanka reasoned out as to why she rejected the role. “As far as the report of me looking older than him onscreen is considered in fact I totally agree with it. Because when I was offered the show and I was proposed this idea, I was surprise after hearing about the pairing and my family also reacted the same way. They felt that we would look slightly off. But when I spoke to the show’s team over the phone, I agreed to do the look test. I felt like let’s give the look test and see how our pair actually looks onscreen.”
Divyanka added, “I had this feeling that Nakuul and I won’t match or look good onscreen together. I am fine with that thought. I feel someone else who comes on board to play the female lead will do justice to the show and I had conveyed my thought across. I’ve done this personally.”
Nakuul has done shows like Pyaar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyaara Pyaara and Ishqbaaaz. Divyanka was last seen in Yeh Hai Mohabbatein.
