Sagar and Aarya have developed a vibrant off-screen friendship, marked by endless banter, spontaneous fun, and unexpected moments that make their time on set enjoyable. While their characters clash intensely on-screen, their off-screen connection is rooted in shared laughter and enjoyable experiences. This natural chemistry makes long shooting days something to look forward to. Sagar took to his social media account to describe their bond as effortless and lively.
He often finds himself embracing Aarya's infectious enthusiasm, which includes impromptu dance breaks and quick-witted exchanges that keep everyone on set entertained.
Sagar Parekh said, "On screen, Aarya Sir and I might be constantly at odds as father and son, but behind the scenes, it's a completely different story. Working with him is an absolute pleasure—his energy is unmatched, and there's never a dull moment when he's around.
From random jokes to spontaneous dance moves, he brings this spark to the set that's so infectious. We're always pulling each other's leg, laughing between takes, and creating these fun, unexpected moments that honestly make work feel like play.
It's rare to find someone who can switch so seamlessly from intense scenes to pure fun off-camera—and Aarya Sir does it effortlessly."
While the duo enjoys their off-camera connection, the tension will only escalate on-screen when Akash discovers that Jagriti (
) is none other than his friend, Jaggu. Will they join forces to save the Chitta community from Kalikant's sinister plans?

Did you know Jagriti-Ek Nayi Subah's Aarya Babbar slapped himself 15 times for a sequence in the show?
It began like any other daylights on, camera rolling, actors getting into character. Aarya Babbar was preparing to shoot a deeply emotional scene where Kalikant discovers that Jagriti (played by Rachana Mistry), the woman he believed was dead, is not only alive but has returned as a powerful IPS officer. But what happened recently on set took even the most seasoned crew members by surprise. Aarya, who plays the baddie, Kalikant Thakur, pushed the boundaries of performance during a pivotal emotional scene, slapping himself not once, but fifteen times to portray the psychological collapse of his character. The moment was scripted to be intense, but no one expected Aarya's next move. Standing in front of a mirror, lost in Kalikant's torment, he began slapping himself—unscripted, unplanned, and shockingly raw. Aarya later shared that in that moment, he felt the need to go beyond the written words, to bring truth and vulnerability to Kalikant's internal breakdown. He wasn't performing pain; he was channelling it. It was a choice born out of creative courage, one that transformed the scene from dramatic to unforgettable. As the final take ended, the entire set broke into spontaneous applause, recognising the sheer emotional depth Aarya brought to the moment. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Device Made My Power Bill Drop Overnight elecTrick - Save upto 80% on Power Bill Pre-Order Undo Aarya Babbar said, "I never intended to slap myself—not even once. But the moment I stood in front of that mirror, fully in Kalikant's shoes, and imagined what it felt like to discover that Jagriti was not only alive but had risen above him, it hit me like a freight train. I wasn't just acting out shame—I was drowning in it. And in that moment, the only honest response I could give was something raw, something real. Each slap was Kalikant punishing himself for the lies he had clung on to, that he was in control, and Jagriti was gone. That no one could ever outsmart him. But she did—quietly, powerfully—while he lived in denial. That kind of realisation doesn't settle gently in your chest. It erupts. It burns." He added, 'By the tenth slap, my face had gone numb, but I couldn't stop—because Kalikant wouldn't stop. That was the moment he stopped being a myth and became a man. Flawed, broken, humiliated. That scene didn't just change Kalikant, it changed me. It reminded me that sometimes, to reach the truth, you have to be willing to hit hard enough to wake yourself up. This powerful moment of method acting not only left the team in awe but also added a haunting intensity to Kalikant's character arc. As the drama escalates in Jagriti – Ek Nayi Subah, will Kalikant be able to regain control, or has Jagriti's rise finally tipped the scales?

Salman Khan's sister Alvira Khan-Atul Agnihotri's love story started on the sets of this film, this was Salim Khan's reaction
Most of the people in the family of Bollywood's Bhaijaan and Dabangg Khan, Salman Khan, are associated with the film industry and are often in the limelight. His sister Alvira is also professionally associated with Bollywood, but despite this, she maintains a distance from the glamorous world. She has been seen very rarely in front of the camera, while Alvira is also a costume designer and producer. She is married to actor and producer Atul Agnihotri and their love story has also been very filmy. Very few people know that Salman Khan's sister, Alvira Khan, is also associated with films. Alvira and Atul's love story started with the 1992 film Jagriti. Salman Khan was the lead hero in this film. Atul was working as an assistant director in this film. Alvira often came to meet her brother on the sets of the film. As soon as the shooting of the film Jagriti was over, Alvira and Atul realized that they were in love with each other. Both were serious about their relationship and wanted to get married by involving the family. Atul's family had no problem, but Salman and Salim Khan's consent was necessary for this relationship. Alvira took a stand for her love and first told Salman about their relationship. Initially it seemed that Salman might get angry. But that did not happen. He behaved normally and accepted Atul. In one of his interviews, Salman was happy that his sister Alvira had gotten married. These siblings of the Khan family used to share their room. After Alvira's marriage, she got herself a personal room. After Salman's consent, Alvira introduced Atul to her father, Salim Khan. She said that she was in love with Atul and she liked him. In response to this, Salim Khan said, 'I also like him.' With the consent of the family, Alvira married Atul in 1995. After marriage, they have a son Ayan and a daughter Alizeh, who has already made her debut in films. Alizeh can be seen in a new project soon.
