Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2: Nakuul Mehta pens down an emotional note as he shoots for the last day


It is no news that Sony TV show ‘Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2’ is gearing up for a generation leap. The show will have new faces who’ll take the show forward while Ram and Priya played by Nakuul Mehta and Disha Parmar will no longer be a part of the show.

As Nakuul headed for the last day shoot of the show as Ram Kapoor, he penned an emotional note expressing his thoughts on being a part of the project for a long time. Ekta Kapoor along with other cast members and fans posted beautiful comments on the post.

Nakuul shared a series of pictures and wrote: Dear Ram Kapoor from Bandra,

There are some roles you play and then there are roles which play themselves and you are just a vessel which has been entrusted with this responsibility and all you really do is show up with all your heart & being, every single day.

RK, you were that guy for me. For someone who had just experienced fatherhood right before he met you, I recall experiencing a tectonic shift in the person I was and that translated into the life I brought to you every single day. Never before have I felt lighter, calmer, as still & vulnerable yet agile and nimble as I have ‘being you’. You allowed me to love more freely, deeply & be okay with my imperfections. You let me breathe life into a beautiful bumbling fragile emotional mess of a human which was far from your gelled hair prototype television hero.

It’s safe to assume this could have only been conceived by some wonderful women. To me Indian Television is synonymous with @ektarkapoor! It took me a decade in the industry to earn my stripes and spend the most beautiful 18 months playing a character which could only have been birthed by her. Thank you for your trust & collaboration. This will remain a cherished memory.

As I set out to film my last day on the Bade Set, none of this would have been what it is if it weren’t for.. The best Priya my Ram could ever have and a friend I’m so fortunate to collaborate with over two beautiful shows, DeePee!The most beautifully crazy ensemble I got a chance to learn from and play off each day, you guys are legends. The love on and off sets is palpable in the moments we have spent making this show. My amazing director & DOP, DC & GS who have been an absolute rock solid team. Rock solid production on most days, Shilps & Sam! To our beautiful & always caffeinated creative team helmed by Mukta, Nikita, Deepti, Saco & Shreya, I’m forever grateful.

Whilst I step away to go and find ‘myself’ again.. It almost feels like retiring my jersey whilst also knowing that ‘some of you’ will always be a part of ‘some of me’.

As reported exclusively by India Forums, Niti Taylor will play the female lead in the show. Rhea Sharma, Randeep Rai, Leenesh Matto and Pooja Banerjee will also be a part of the show post leap.
