Shivin Narang opens up about teaming up with Jennifer Winget

Featuring Jennifer Winget, Shivin Narang and Ashish Chowdhry in central characters, Beyhadh 2 hits the small screen on 2nd October. Produced by LSD Films Private Limited, the romantic thriller series is the second season of Sony Entertainment Television’s successful show Beyhadh, which starred Jennifer Winget, Kushal Tandon and Aneri Vijani and remained one of the leading and flagship shows on the channel throughout its run.

While Jennifer Winget returns to play her popular character of Maya once again in Beyhadh 2, Shivin Narang and Ashish Chowdhry are the new entrants to join the actress on the cast. Actor Shivin, who joins the second season of the show as Rudra, says that he bonded with his co-star Jennifer Winget since the very first shot that they deliver together.

"We bonded since our very first shot. We gave it right in the first take itself and it seemed seamless. Till now, whatever scenes we have done, the makers have really liked it,” shares Shivin Narang, who was previously seen on Colors’ Internet Wala Love.

The actor goes on to add that despite being a huge star on television, Jennifer has no air around her. "We think people who are a big star, they might have air, but Jennifer is so honest towards her work and everything. She is very sensitive. She is a wonderful human being,” the actor says.

Shivin Narang chose Beyhadh 2 over Salman Khan’s popular but controversial reality show Bigg Boss 13. The actor says that it was a wise decision and now, he is looking forward to seeing audience’s response to his character of Rudra on Beyhadh 2.

Beyhadh 2 premieres on 2 December 2019 on Sony TV at 9 pm IST.
