When the energy of childhood meets a world of magic and mystery, the result is pure joy both on-screen and behind the scenes. The sets of Sun Neo’s Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani have recently become even more lively, as new young talents have joined the journey, turning moments into memories and scenes into celebrations. Aqdas Khan, who essays the role of Sappu, shares how this growing camaraderie has made his shooting experience even more special.

Aqdas Said, “On the sets of Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani, it was just me and Harithi shooting together in the beginning, and we had a great time. But now, with three more kids joining us, we have become a group of five, and the fun has multiplied so much. Shooting feels even more exciting now because there’s always someone around to laugh with, play with, and share moments with. Since right now holidays are going on, there’s no homework or studies to worry about, so during breaks, we just enjoy and have a lot of fun together.”

He further added, “In such a short time, I’ve become really good friends with everyone. We sit together, share our tiffins, and keep chatting and laughing nonstop. The best part is that all of us have different superpowers in the show, so even off-camera, we keep joking around like, “I’ll use my power on you” or “Watch what I can do!” These little moments make our bond even stronger. Our fun and masti are so infectious that even the rest of the team on set enjoys watching us.”

Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani is telecast every Monday to Saturday at 7:30 PM  on Sun Neo
