A few months ago, the makers had decided to introduce a generation leap in the show. During that time, Vivian D’sena who played the lead role of Harman had quit the show as he was not comfortable playing a father on-screen.

After the upcoming generation leap, the show will feature actress Jigyasa Singh and Simba Nagpal as the new lead couple who will take the story forward. Produced by Rashmi Sharma Telefilms, Shakti – Astitva Ke Ehsaas Ki premiered its first episode on May 30, 2016. It has been one of the top-rated shows on Colors ever since its launch.
