In an earlier interview with ETimes, Shivangi had opened about her character in the upcoming show saying, "In my new show, I play Aradhna, a journalist. She is optimistic, strong-headed, and determined to achieve her goals in life. She works for Reyaansh (Kushal Tandon's character) and the plot revolves around how girls fall for boys who generally break their hearts. He is not a bad guy but tends to break their hearts. I am quite looking forward to this role. It is very different from the kind of roles I have played in my earlier roles."

Produced by Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms, Barsatein will premiere on July 10 and will be airing from Monday to Friday at 8 pm only on Sony Entertainment.
