It took almost 10 days for Karan Patel and Kasautii Zindagii Kay's creative team to come up with a new look for the character of Rishabh Bajaj, previously played by Karan Singh Grover. Like his predecessor, Patel also opted for a salt-and-pepper hairdo and shaved off his beard. He says, "I wanted to nail the look, hence it took a while."

Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2 is a romantic drama TV series, which features Parth Samthaan, Erica Fernandes and Aamna Sharif. The show is a reboot of the 2001 hit series Kasautii Zindagii Kay, which featured Shweta Tiwari, Cezzanne Khan, Hiten Tejwani, Ronit Roy and Urvashi Dholakia.
