Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti`s hit series Made in Heaven, which gained tremendous popularity in 2019, is finally returning with a new season after a four-year break. The series, starring Sobhita Dhulipala and Arjun Mathur, experienced significant delays, prompting concerns about maintaining audience interest.
In a recent conversation with Film Companion, Akhtar delved into the factors contributing to the long hiatus and whether it would impact the show`s audience retention. The series` production was significantly affected by the pandemic, which, as Zoya noted, led to a loss of momentum worldwide. The creators were notably worried about keeping the audience engaged after such a substantial gap. "We were very worried about the audience`s interest and will it sustain? But we wanted to put our best foot out there if we were doing it and hopefully, they will be back," Zoya revealed.
