Zee TV’s ongoing show Tumm Se Tumm Tak, produced by Prateek Sharma and Parth Shah’s Studio LSD, continues to win viewers’ hearts with its gripping narrative and the refreshing on-screen chemistry between its lead actors, Niharika Chouksey and Sharad Kelkar. Recently, Niharika opened up about her bond with her co-star and how their comfort level translates effortlessly on screen.

Speaking about her equation with Sharad, Niharika shared, “It’s a very good bond. It was made from the first day itself. During the mock shoot, we instantly connected. Both of us belong to Madhya Pradesh, and Sharad sir often says that I am his female version. That similarity has made us very comfortable with each other.”

The actress also addressed whether she ever feels awkward filming romantic scenes with an established actor like Sharad. To this, she replied with clarity, “Never. I don’t feel awkward because Sharad sir ensures that I am comfortable in every scene. The director and the entire unit also create a safe environment, so there is no scope for hesitation. At the end of the day, these are part of my job, and because of our comfort level, we never face difficulty shooting such scenes.”

Initially, some viewers expressed concerns about the age gap between the characters. However, with time, audiences began appreciating the chemistry and storyline. Niharika reflected, “Yes, at first there was mixed feedback, but slowly the audience accepted us. Now, many of those who doubted the pairing have become our biggest supporters.”
