Surbhi Chandna starrer Sanjivani starts rolling

And here comes the great news for all the fans of immensely talented television actress Surbhi Chandna, who have been missing her sorely since her popular Star Plus show Ishqbaaaz went off-air a couple of months ago.

The gorgeous actress has just started shooting for her next show, titled Sanjivani. Does not the title of her next show ring a bell in your mind? Yes, you guessed it absolutely right! Sanjivani is the reboot version of the Cinevistaas Limited-produced medical drama Sanjivani, which aired on Star Plus from 2002 to 2005.


The show was a huge success on television and, in the following years, also spawned a sequel titled Dill Mill Gayye, which had Karan Singh Grover, Jennifer Winget, Karan Wahi and Drashti Dhami headlining the cast. The second season of the show, which aired on Star One, also turned out to be an instant hit among audiences and shot Karan Singh Grover, Jennifer Winget, Karan Wahi and Drashti Dhami to overnight fame.

Star Plus is bringing back the hit show after one and a half decade. While the original version starred Gurdeep Kohli, Sanjeet Bedi, Rupali Ganguly, Arjun Punj and Mohnish Bahl in pivotal roles, the upcoming version will be headlined by Surbhi Chandna and Namit Khanna. Several other actors will join the star cast as the story progresses.

Today, Surbhi Chandna and Namit Khanna commenced the shoot of the soap, which is being produced by Siddharth P Malhotra’s banner Alchemy Films. Malhotra took to Instagram to share an image from the sets of the show, along with a clapperboard with the name of Sanjivani written on it.

Though there is no update on the premiere date of Sanjivani, buzz has it that it will hit the airwaves on Star Plus from July.
