Iqbal's debut show completes 18 years today!

Not sure if we are allowed to post it here - but it came on my news feed today...

Iqbal's debut show Kaisa Ye Pyaar hai completes 18 years today!! 🥳🥳I remember watching bits and pieces of that show and humming the title track sometimes... EK shows always had good title tracks!!

For whatever regressive crap and shitshow EK gave to ITV, I think she gave ITV some amazing actors and created some noteworthy fictional characters! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Iqbal was one such find from EK, who is still remembered and loved for his first show (muck like Cezanne who is still remembered for Kasauti Zindagi Ki and Rajeev Khandelwal who is still remembered as Sujal from Kahin to Hoga)....

Iqbal has come such a long way, maturing so much as an actor and performer; willing to work hard on his craft and delighting us audience with his current portrayal of Devrat Raichand ❤️❤️

May he continue to shine and always remain blessed! ☺️☺️☺️

Fans get nostalgic as Kaisa Ye Pyaar Hai completes 18 years

wow, that's lovely. it is one of my fav shows. Iqbal is undoubtedly an amazing actor, kaafi maturity ayi hai unki acting mein from Angad to Devrrat Raichand. 😳

I remember watching KYPH when it used to air - I think I gave up when they got Prithvi and kripa married. EK truly ruined the meaning of relationships on ITV, but she did have a knack for finding good actors.

For IQ - it has been a wholesome journey with such tremendous growth from Angad to Dev. I haven’t watched many of his shows in between - I tried a few, but none kept my interest. But watching his has Dev has been an absolute treat.

So so true... The nuance that Iqbal has brought in his emoting and acting as Dev Raichand is truly praise worthy! 👏👏👏

He really worked hard (of course with the OG story writer, dialog writer, and makers) to create what we admire as Dev Raichand!

At the risk of repeating myself, Dev Raichand is one of the best ML characters on ITV today! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I don't recall watching any compete episodes of KYPH, maybe some clips here and there... But Iqbal as Angad caught my attention even then! ☺️☺️

But I didn't follow him / his work after that!

Am so glad he decided to come back as ML with NUKSH and delight us audience! 👏👏 watching him playing Dev is so soothing and organic... It's almost like he got the salt and pepper look because he had to play Dev Raichand someday!

TV industry can be ruthless, so kudos to Iqbal for not just surviving but also thriving here for 18 years! 👍🏼👍🏼

His audience love for him and the characters he's played so far is a testimony of the brilliant actor and grounded human being that he is!! 👍🏼👍🏼

Maze ki baat toh yeh bhi hai kaise yeh pyar hai ishara channel pe phir se ane wala. I am so excited for it. Can't wait to see Iqbal as angad again.

Oh really? I don't have that channel here in US, but am sure many will enjoy seeing Iqbal as Rockstar Angad!!

If I had to watch the show, I would watch it purely for Iqbal's performance, because EK shows ki story to crap hi hoti hai... 🤣🤣🤣

@bold - I think that’s the best description for his performance as Dev and it I s truly the best of all his performances - although I am comparing it to his first 😄

This year KYPH completed 18yrs, many of us were not able to watch Kaisa Yeh Pyar Hai and youtube episodes are all chopped. News is that Ishara TV Channel is going to air Kaisa Yeh Pyar Hai starting April 1st Monday to Saturday at 8:30PM Indian Time. Those in India can watch live on tv and ppl abroad can download and subscribe to app “EPIC ON” to watch Ishara TV live.
