Mumbai, June 10
A popular name in the television industry, Shabir Ahluwalia was invited as the guest on Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa's LOL podcast.
Shabir was accompanied by television actress Ashi Singh as the guests on the podcast.
For those who do not know, Shabir and Ashi play the lead pair Yug and Kairi in the drama "Ufff… Yeh Love Hai Mushkil".
While speaking to Bharti and Harsh, Shabir and Ashi revealed a couple of behind-the-scenes anecdotes from the shoot. These two further shed light on their chemistry on-screen.
During the podcast, the comedian couldn’t help but admire Shabir's fierce on-screen presence, along with a calm demeanor off the screen.
Impressed by him, Bharti gave him the title of “Ajay Devgn of televisionâ€.
Bharti pointed out that both Ajay and Shabir have a strong presence on screen while maintaining a quiet and reserved nature when the camera is off.
Bharti shared that she felt Shabir is the Ajay Devgn of television as he doesn’t smile much, has a serious demeanor, and performs intense scenes on screen.
Bharti even asked Ashi about her experience working with him, given that Shabir has been a part of the television industry for a long time.
The host further inquired if Ashi was scared while performing her first scene with Shabir.
To this, Ashi revealed that although she felt intimidated working with such a seasoned actor in the beginning, she soon grew comfortable with him. Ashi credited Shabir’s supportive and grounded nature for making things smooth for her.
Created by Aamir Jaffer and Sonali Jaffar, "Ufff… Yeh Love Hai Mushkil" has been backed under the banner of Full House Productions.
"Ufff…Yeh Love Hai Mushkil" airs from Monday to Saturday at 8 PM on Sony SAB. The premiere episode of the show reached the audience on Monday.

Bharti's comparison is spot on! Shabir does have that intense Ajay Devgn vibe. Loved their chemistry in Ufff Yeh Love Hai Mushkil - the show is my guilty pleasure after work 😄 Hope to see more such fun revelations on the podcast!
While I enjoy Shabir's acting, comparing him to Ajay Devgn feels like a stretch. Bollywood and TV have different scales. But credit where it's due - he's definitely one of the most consistent actors on Indian television.
Ashi Singh is such a fresh face in the industry! It's nice to hear about senior actors like Shabir supporting newcomers. Our TV industry needs more such positive collaborations rather than just focusing on drama and ratings.
Bharti's LOL podcast is becoming must-watch content for TV fans! The behind-the-scenes stories are gold. Shabir has come a long way since his Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi days - true example of reinventing yourself in this industry.
The comparison is interesting but I wish we could appreciate artists for their unique qualities rather than always comparing them to others. Shabir has his own style that makes him special in the TV world 🌟
Not sure about Ajay Devgn comparison, but Shabir is definitely the OG of Indian television. Remember him from shows 15 years ago and he's still delivering strong performances. That's real staying power in this competitive industry!
