However, a reliable source from the production house informs that it’s not Rafi, but Mukul Harish who has been finalised to play the part of Ishaan.

Shared a source, “Rafi was almost finalised but due to some issues cropping up between the production and actor, Mukul was signed in the last minute. The actor has already started shoot.”

“The character that Mukul plays does not share a healthy bond with his younger brother, Kartik. Mukul’s character had to sacrifice his dream of becoming a singer to join his father’s business when Kartik left home. The resentment grows when his father forgives Kartik, when he returns home and ignores the sacrifices made by his elder son” added a source.

Mukul Harish was also seen in TV shows like ‘Pavitra Rishta’, ‘Mrs Kaushik Ki Paanch Bahuein’, ‘Kalash‘ etc.
