Star Plus names Gaurav-Shraddha show Dil Ki Bewafaiyaan
Star Plus and Balaji Telefilms reveal Dil Ki Bewafaiyaan, the new Gaurav Khanna-Shraddha Arya show expected after Diwali. Premiere date awaited.
Star Plus puts a name to its next big TV pairing
After weeks of teaser curiosity, Star Plus has officially named the romantic family drama that brings Gaurav Khanna and Shraddha Arya together onscreen for the first time. The title is Dil Ki Bewafaiyaan, and it comes from Ektaa R Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms. The channel has dropped an announcement promo, moving the project from “two familiar faces at the Balaji office” to a fully titled show.
A premiere is still to be locked, but the pace of updates suggests a quick rollout. The show is expected after Diwali, tentatively in the last week of November, and a 9 pm slot on Star Plus is reportedly under discussion. The official date and time remain with the channel.
Why this casting matters
Both leads are returning to daily fiction after defining runs elsewhere. Gaurav Khanna steps back into the genre after Anupamaa, while Shraddha Arya returns after a long association with Kundali Bhagya. For Shraddha, it is a second outing with Balaji Telefilms; for Gaurav, it is a first with Ektaa Kapoor’s banner.
Ektaa has made no secret of how much she wanted this pairing. She said: “Now that it’s finally happening, I’m excited, nervous, and already imagining how audiences will react to them together!”
That enthusiasm matters in a format built on appointment viewing. Daily fiction has always depended on familiar faces, and bringing two actors with loyal fan bases together gives the show a head start before the first episode airs. Star Plus is effectively turning a casting decision into a launch conversation, and the title reveal is the moment that conversation gets a product.
What we know so far
- Title: Dil Ki Bewafaiyaan, a romantic family drama.
- Production: Balaji Telefilms.
- Leads: Gaurav Khanna and Shraddha Arya, together onscreen for the first time.
- Expected launch: after Diwali, tentatively in late November.
- Slot under discussion: 9 pm on Star Plus, subject to channel confirmation.
The show is not in front of cameras yet. A puja has already taken place with the actors, and the set of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi 2.0 is reportedly being revamped for this new production. That gives the title reveal a practical base, not just a promo beat.
What to watch next
Star Plus still needs to confirm the exact premiere date and time slot. For fans who followed both actors through Anupamaa and Kundali Bhagya, that announcement will decide whether Dil Ki Bewafaiyaan arrives as a post-Diwali weeknight staple or lands elsewhere on the schedule.
Until then, the show has what a new daily drama needs: two leads viewers already trust, a producer with a strong track record in the genre, and a title that signals high emotional stakes.
