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.
