Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon? fans, brace yourselves! The makers are gearing up for the third instalment of the hugely popular show and that too with Barun Sobti in the lead.

Barun had starred in the first season of the show along with Sanaya Irani and their chemistry instantly connected with the viewers making them one of the most popular onscreen pairs in the TV industry. However, the audience didn't show similar love to the leads of the Season 2, Shrenu Parikh and Avinash Sachdev.

But now, with Barun returning to the show in the third season, it surely will leave his fans excited. However, the sad part is the new season will not have Sanaya. Instead, Shivani Tomar has been roped in as the lead actress opposite Barun, ABP Live reported.

Now, an India Forums report said another actress, Juhi Aslam, joined the cast of the new season of Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon?

Interestingly, Barun and Shivani were supposed to feature in another TV show but the show got scrapped and the two finally came together for Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon? Season 3. It remains to be seen if the new on-screen couple manages to create the same magic as Sanaya and Barun.

In other news, Barun was recently seen in the web series Tanhaiyan, which became the most watched show on Hotstar. His chemistry with the lead actress Surbhi Jyoti, however, received mixed responses from the audience.
