Barun Sobti’s and Sanaya Irani’s show Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon remains one of the most popular serials on television. Barun starred as Arnav Singh Raizada in the serial while Sanaya stole everyone’s hearts playing Khushi Kumari Gupta. Recently when Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon completed 9 years, Sanaya and Barun got into a candid chat with the show's producer Gul Khan. During this chat, Sanaya revealed that her husband Mohit Sehgal whom she worked with Miley Jab Hum Tum had also auditioned for Barun’s role.
She said, “Mohit was also auditioning for Arnav's role. He was still in everybody's minds after MJHT, people were speculating that he might be the Arnav for the show. While I was kept in a room with 10 girls during the audition, Mohit had got a separate room for getting ready and prepping up. When he gave the audition, everybody was keen to send it to the channel for the final decision."
She added that in the end, they three- Sanaya, Mohit and Barun were left for the final call and ultimately she and Barun bagged the lead roles and as they say rest is history.
