Nakuul Mehta on 9 years of 'Ishqbaaaz': 'I gave my blood, sweat and tears'

Nakuul Mehta reflects on Ishqbaaaz's 9-year legacy, calling it a show he gave his "blood, sweat, and tears" to while thanking fans for making it their comfort zone.

"9 years to a show I gave my blood, sweat, tears and more too. But you made it yours and it took a life of its own. – Nakuul Mehta"

Mumbai, June 27

Television actor Nakuul Mehta, on Friday, took to social media to mark the 9th anniversary of his much-loved show “Ishqbaaaz.”

He shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, looking back on the incredible journey of the show. Mehta called it a project he gave his "blood, sweat, tears and more" to—one that eventually became more than just a show for its viewers. In his heartfelt note, the ‘Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2’ actor described how Ishqbaaaz evolved into a “comfort zone” for the audience, a memory they return to not just for the story but for the emotions it evoked and the personal milestones they experienced alongside it.

Nakuul went on to thank everyone who contributed to the making of the show, crediting their passion and purpose as something he continues to draw from even today. He shared an animated poster showcasing the entire cast of the show and wrote, “9 years to a show I gave my blood, sweat, tears and more too. But you made it yours and it took a life of its own. It became your comfort zone. A memory you return to not for the show alone, but for who you were when it aired and who you became after. For how it made you feel. Through heart aches, first love, joys, losses and everything in between. Just grateful we met somewhere in the middle of all that madness.”

“Grateful to everyone who came together to make this and the purpose and drive each of you brought. I borrow that very often in everything I do since then :) @crayartistetmet for being our biggest cheerleader. Thanks for this retrospective poster.”

“Ishqbaaaz,” a romantic drama television series, aired from 27 June 2016 to 15 March 2019 on Star Plus. The show initially starred Nakuul Mehta, Surbhi Chandna, Kunal Jaisingh, Shrenu Parikh, Leenesh Mattoo and Mansi Srivastava. In December 2018, the show took a generation leap and aired a new season, ‘Ishqbaaz: Pyaar Ki Ek Dhinchak Kahaani’ and featured Nakuul Mehta and Niti Taylor in the lead roles.

Ishqbaaaz was my comfort show during college days! ❤️ Still remember waiting for new episodes after classes. Nakuul's Shivaay was iconic - no one could've played that role better. The chemistry between Shivaay and Anika was pure magic ✨

Honestly, the show lost its charm after the generation leap. The original cast had such amazing energy together. But can't deny it was one of Star Plus' best shows in recent years. Nakuul's dedication shows in every frame!

️My mom and I used to watch this together every night! It became our special bonding time. Even today when we hear the title song, we start reminiscing. Such beautiful memories attached to this show. Thank you team Ishqbaaaz!

As someone who doesn't usually watch TV serials, Ishqbaaaz was an exception. The production quality, acting, and storyline were top-notch compared to typical saas-bahu dramas. Wish Indian TV made more shows like this instead of regressive content.

The first 100 episodes were pure gold! But like many Indian shows, it stretched too long and lost the original plot. Still, Nakuul and Surbhi's performances were award-worthy. Their airport reunion scene still gives me goosebumps!

This show proved that Indian television can create modern love stories without unnecessary melodrama. The fashion, the sets, the dialogues - everything was so fresh! Hope Nakuul does more TV projects soon. He's one of the few actors who elevates every scene.
