After great movies like Chennai Express, Swades, Gangajal&Mrityudandbeing shot in the background of the beautiful Wai, the makers of YehRishtapicked on this destination to shoot some romantic sequences given the weather and picturesque location to celebrate the anniversary track of Akshara&Naitik.

The town has beautiful temples and a lot of visitors frequent this place for holidays. “Yes, I carried Hina up the stairs and it was a mighty but fun task. Shooting in Wai was a beautiful experience, the weather was very pleasant and the temples we visited had some beautiful carvings that were etched decades ago and the entire place in itself had so much to offer, I definitely think that everyone should visit this place and are likely to fall in love once more,” says Karan Mehra.

The upcoming episodes will reveal the fact that Akshara&Naitik wanted to holiday abroad but on the insistence of Akshara’s mother they diverted their plan to visit the Kuldevi temple in Wai.With this it has been proven that the king of romance – SRK’s romantic style has gripped even our small screen in a big way.
