Sharad Kelkar and Niharika Chouksey explore Delhi's Chandni Chowk ki Galliyan while shooting for Tumm Se Tumm Tak
Latest fiction offering Tumm Se Tumm Tak brings to audiences a love story that dares to cross boundaries of age, class, and social expectations. At its heart lies the emotionally nuanced bond between Aryavardhan ( Sharad Kelkar ), a successful 46-year-old entrepreneur, and Anu (Niharika Chouksey), a 19-year-old girl from a modest background. Their journey is filled with internal conflicts, external pressures, and the slow unfolding of trust, love, and respect. What makes this story even more compelling is the rich, real-world backdrop it's set in — the ever-bustling, deeply soulful city of New Delhi. The decision to shoot extensively in Delhi wasn't just for visual appeal — it was a conscious creative choice. From the narrow bylanes of Chandni Chowk to the grandeur of India Gate and the historic charm of Qutub Minar, Delhi added depth and authenticity to the scenes. The cast and crew didn't just film in the city — they lived it. Amid long shoot days and emotional scenes, Sharad and Niharika also indulged in the capital's iconic street food and explored its cultural gems. From trying sodas, jalebis, aloo puri and crispy parathas in Paranthe Wali Gali, to taking kulhad chai breaks near Qutub Minar, the tang of chaat and enjoying chilled lassi to beat the summer heat, Delhi's food trail became a shooting highlight in itself and it all became a memorable part of their shoot diaries. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Talking about his experience, Sharad Kelkar shared, 'Shooting in Delhi was an experience I'll always carry with me. Every location, from the chaos of Chandni Chowk to the timeless calm of Qutub Minar, brought its own unique energy to our scenes. I remember shooting near India Gate; there was this moment during an emotional scene where I completely stopped thinking like Sharad I was Aryavardhan. The boundary between the actor and the character just dissolved, and that's something rare. What made it all the more special was soaking in the local vibe, indulging in ice cream, sipping kulhad chai between takes, enjoying sugarcane juice, and giving in to jalebi cravings. We even shot during peak summer, so chilled lassi and quick sodas became our survival kit! And I have to give credit to my co-star, Niharika — she made a list of places we had to try while in Delhi. So, the whole cast ended up exploring food spots together, which brought all of us closer and made the whole experience feel personal and unforgettable. Delhi's rhythm is its own — unpredictable, electric, deeply emotional, and I truly believe that rhythm echoes in every frame of Tumm Se Tumm Tak.' Sharing her excitement, Niharika Chouksey said, 'Shooting for Tumm Se Tumm Tak in Delhi felt like being embraced by a city that breathes stories through every street and corner. I'd been to Delhi before, but this time was different — living and working here gave me a deeper connection. One of my absolute highlights was exploring Delhi's incredible street food. I'm a complete foodie, and as soon as I knew we'd be shooting in places like Chandni Chowk, I started making a food bucket list. Parathas at Paranthe Wali Gali, quick sugarcane juice breaks between scenes, spicy chaat, and winding down with ice cream— all of it made shooting here feel so personal and joyful. As Anu, a character who's experiencing life and love with fresh eyes, being in Delhi made everything feel more real, more heartfelt, and far more personal.' With Delhi's spirit woven seamlessly into the narrative, Tumm Se Tumm Tak brings an authentic and emotionally layered love story to life. It will be interesting for the viewers to watch if Aryavardhan and Anu will be able to overcome the societal norms that stand in their way?

Hum Paanch Fame Actress Vandana Pathak Set For Her TV Comeback: All You Need To Know
New Delhi: In a society where relationships are often shaped by tradition and societal norms, where age, financial status, and social standing play pivotal roles, Zee TV is set to challenge conventions with its latest fiction show, Tumm Se Tumm Tak. The channel, known for its progressive storytelling and emotionally resonant narratives, introduces an unconventional love story that dares to ask: can love transcend societal expectations? At the heart of Tumm Se Tumm Tak lies the striking connection between two individuals from vastly different worlds, Anu, a spirited 19-year-old from a humble background, and Aryavardhan, a 46-year-old disciplined, self-made business tycoon. Their evolving bond pushes against traditional barriers, raising questions about love, age differences, and acceptance in modern India. Niharika Chouksey and Sharad Kelkar take on the lead roles of Anu and Aryavardhan, bringing emotional depth and authenticity to the layered narrative. Adding further gravitas to the series is the much-anticipated return of veteran actor Vandana Pathak, who joins the cast after a five-year break from television. She will portray Gayatri Devi, a graceful yet strong-willed matriarch devoted to her family and especially to Aryavardhan's happiness. Reflecting on her return, Vandana Pathak shared, "Zee TV feels like an extension of my home and heart — it's where my journey on television began with Hum Paanch nearly three decades ago. That show gave me not just recognition, but also memories that have stayed with me even today. Coming back to the same channel after all these years of my acting journey feels deeply emotional. In fact, before a five-year hiatus from television, my last show was on Zee Tv!! So for me to come back after five years, I was waiting for something meaningful, and Tumm Se Tumm Tak felt just right. The story is beautiful, layered, and full of heart, and the character of Gayatri Devi spoke to me the moment I read about her. I see her strength, her grace, her quiet power, and I feel privileged to bring her to life. I'm truly looking forward to stepping onto the sets, reconnecting with the audience, and creating something special once again. I just hope the viewers welcome me back with the same warmth and love they've given me throughout my career, it means everything to me." Also Read | 'We Stand United...'
