Kundali Bhagya started off as a love triangle between Karan, Preeta, and Rishabh. Actors Dheeraj Dhoopar, Shraddha Arya, and Manit Jaura played the characters respectively. Preeta and Karan's chemistry won many hearts and people shipped them with the hashtag PreeRan.

Dheeraj Dhoopar had quit the show followed by Shakti Arora being roped in as Karan. As the show headed for a leap, Shakti left the show and Shakti Anand was roped in as Karan opposite Shraddha.
