The lockdown in Maharashtra made producers of several shows, including Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, Aapki Nazron Ne Samjha, Shaurya Aur Anokhi Ki Kahani, Kumkum Bhagya and Yeh Hai Chahatein, starring Abrar Qazi and Sargun Kaur Luthra, shift their units to Goa to continue with the shoot. To curb the rising virus cases, a lockdown has been announced in Goa till May 3, which came into effect on Thursday evening. This has made some makers halt the shoot, but those units in a bio-bubble, who are staying and shooting in the same hotel, remain unaffected.

Chief Minister Pramod Sawant also urged tourists not to travel within the state during the lockdown, saying tourism activities in the state, including casinos, will be shut. The Chief Minister has also urged the migrant workers not to leave the state, assuring them that the lockdown would be lifted on Monday. "Essential services, like grocery stores, pharmacies, hotel and restaurant kitchens, and industries will continue to remain open. However, public transport will be stopped," the Chief Minister said.
