Mumbai witnessed an unexpected change in weather early Wednesday morning as heavy rains, gusty winds, and thunder took over the city. The rain, which began late Tuesday night, not only brought relief from the heat but also disrupted several ongoing activities — including the shooting of popular television shows.
Star Plus’ long-running and much-loved drama Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai is one such show affected by the sudden downpour. Known for its emotional twists and gripping storylines, the show has continued to captivate viewers with its current high-voltage track. However, this time, real-life weather played spoilsport for the cast and crew.
According to reports from the set, the team was in the middle of filming an outdoor sequence when unexpected rain forced them to halt the shoot. The heavy showers made it impossible to continue, as equipment had to be protected and the location became unsuitable for further filming.
Sources revealed that the cast and crew were caught off guard, as there was no prior indication of such intense weather conditions. Safety protocols were quickly followed, and the shoot was called off temporarily until the weather improved.
Rohit Purohit, who plays the character of Armaan in the show, took to his social media to give fans an update. He shared a story hinting at the unexpected pause in filming.
Despite the interruption, fans can rest assured that the team is working hard to stay on schedule. The brief delay, while unavoidable, is not likely to cause any significant disruptions to the show’s telecast.
As the monsoon begins to make an early mark in Mumbai, television productions will need to stay alert and adjust schedules accordingly.
