CENTRAL CHRONICLE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2020

ony Entertainment Television’s popular show Ek Duje Suman becomes makeup Ske Vaaste, which has been a rage among the audience, is all set to return with its second season soon on popular artist for Shravan on the demand. Produced by StudioNEXT, the show will see two budding actors – Mohit Kumar and Kanikka Kapur , playing the lead roles of Shravan and Suman respectively. Set sets of ‘Ek Duje Ke Vaaste’ against an army backdrop, Ek Duje ke Vaaste 2 is a stun- ning love story with a present-day touch. The story also highlights how ego, and the absence of an apology during a misunderstanding, can spell the death knell for a relationship. Shravan is the biggest prankster on the set who keeps playing games with Suman and other co-stars. They have a great time cooking food together and sometimes having a soothing bike ride, Shravan and Suman recently shared a cute moment before their day began. Recently, Shravan and Suman had a fun bet on set where the loser had to do anything the winner asks him to do. Suman being the loser had to accept the task Shravan gave him and had to do his make up for that day on set. Suman being former Miss Asia is a pro in doing make up and can even do perfect make up for a man. Though Shravan was scared that she might overdo it, his make-up was a cake walk for Suman and she completed it without any help.Suman shares, “We spend a lot of fun time together when we aren’t shooting. It was a light shoot day, when we were all in a mood to enjoy our evening snacks. Me and Shravan share a sweet Lovebirds Kriti and banter relationship where we keep pulling each other’s leg. I had a bet with Suman, one who loses the bet had to perform a task the winner asks them to. Unfortunately, I Pulkit shoot for their lost the bet and I had to do his make up for the day.
