As Karan Kundrra's journey in the popular show "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai'' is set to come to an end soon, he recalls it has been nothing short of a "rollercoaster" ride creating this beautiful yet remarkable journey. The actor plays the love interest to Shivangi Joshi's character in "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai". And now his track in the show is set to end soon. Having been part of successful shows previously including "Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya", "Kitni Mohabbat Hai" among others, Karan is thrilled to bits to have received immense love from the audience for "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai" that too in a short time period.

Talking about his experience on the show, he says, it has been nothing short of a "rollercoaster" ride. "Ranveer's character has been given so much love from the day he entered to the time he exited from the show. It was a rollercoaster ride because on television, where shows go on for 5 -6 years it's very rare that you find that one character, which over the period of just 4-5 months is given so much graph, so much to do that it's almost like doing the action, thriller OTT or a film in four months," he says.

The actor says he is thankful to the makers and the entire team for charting out interesting arcs around the character of Ranveer. "Whatever I was promised for Ranveer's character, for my cameo on ‘Yeh Rishta…', I think they gave me much more. My journey is over and that's exactly the way we have planned it and it did really well.

It was supposed to end earlier but it got extended but I think it was totally worth it for me and for the show as well. And I'm happy that I left a mark for everybody," Karan says. The soap opera airs on Star Plus and also streams on Hotstar. He further says he is grateful to have collaborated with producer Rajan Shahi for the opportunity and says working with him has been a memorable experience.

Heaping praises on Rajan, the actor says, "I'm very overwhelmed and happy and grateful to him, everybody on Directors Kut Production, the actors, crew, the creative team and others. Rajan Ji is a very passionate person and gives everyone a sense of family. You understand once you get on to such a show you realise why this show ran for so long because it's just like a family feeling," he adds.
