Dil Boley Oberoi to end soon!

Here is good news for the avid watchers of ‘Dil Boley Oberoi‘ and ‘Ishqbaaaz’. The two shows will soon be merged into one. ‘Dil Boley Oberoi’ (‘DBO’), which is a spin-off of ‘Ishqbaaaz’, will cease to exist, and instead, there will be an hour long show, that will fuse both the serials.

‘DBO’ was separated from the original show, which starred Nakuul Mehta, Kunal Jaisingh and Leenesh Mattoo as the three heroes. After the separation, Kunal and Leenesh became part of ‘DBO’, while Nakuul stayed put on ‘Ishqbaaaz’.

While Ishqbaaaz continued to enjoy a successful run on the ratings chart, ‘DBO’, which was launched in February this year, too enjoyed a decent fan-following. But, the producers noticed that the ratings went way higher when the three brothers came together. This led them to take the decision of a merger, which is expected to be implemented soon. The new show will focus on the bromance between the three brothers — Nakuul, Kunal and Leenesh.

When contacted, Nakuul said, “I believe it’s a marketing decision. The brand Ishqbaaaz has grown considerably and we are happy to have evolved from a half-an-hour slot to an hour-long one. It’s one of the very few launches from 2016, which has clicked with the trade and the audiences. It only makes sense to push that brand. On a personal note, it’s has been a fantastic journey with the show leading it’s time slot and having won accolades and awards both for the team and myself.”
