Yeh Un Dinon Ki Baat Hai 2nd Set Visit

On 10th October 2018 I visited YUDKBH Set once again and this time I knew how to take permission so I was all prepared with it beforehand only. I was told today only Ashi, Ayesha, Abha maam, Arjun and that new girl would be shooting. I asked what about next day i.e 11th October? The person said there is no guarantee whether there will be a shoot or not, these days one night before only they get to know whether there is a shoot tomorrow or not and if yes, then who all would shoot was also announced then. On 9th only Arjun and that new girl were shooting so no one else was on set. The person continued and said on 10th night only they would know if on 11th there would be any shoot or not and who would shoot. The possibility of no shoot made me think as I had a flight booked to return to Delhi on 11th. So, I agreed to visit the sets on 10th October.


The road to sets took me back to the last time I visited the set. I was trying to remember the route towards the set and at the same time my excitement was at peak. Finally, I saw the poster which said yeh unn dinon ki baat hai set, and at this point my excitement which was at peak met with anxiety. Even though I had been on set in July on 9th I still felt that Adeline rush inside me.


I entered the sets and the feeling was just amazing. The set has such positive vibes that it automatically brings a smile on your face. I asked on the set where will I find Ashi and they told me she was in shot which was happening with Taiji at Agarwal house. The set person asked me to keep my phone on silent mode and took me towards the Agarwal house.

Climbing those stairs brought so many memories from show and as well as from my previous visit to set. Some of the set members were sitting in the area outside the house and the shot was going on inside the house. The door which we often see next to Agarwal house was open and two small screens were there, from those screens I saw what was being shot. But wait that room was recently shown when Arjun tries to steal the money from a sleeping rakesh. Coming back the shot was taiji was lying on the swing and she calls naina and scolds her, basically the usual taiji naina scene.



Someone came and told me that the scene will take some time so meanwhile I can have a look at sameer’s house. I mentioned in my previous set visit experience that the taiji’s house has been converted as sameer’s house but this time the difference was there was light in the house and I saw all the rooms with a smile plastered on my face.








Finally the shot was over and this meant my chance to meet her. I nervously went inside the Agarwal house and saw Ashi and taiji were sitting on the swing. As soon as she spotted me she walked towards me and like last time I told her my name and we hugged. Ashi said “you came before also na”. I smiled whole heartedly because she vaguely remembered me. I told her yes and then about the last meet. I told her that I gave a poem and then she remembered it. Then I requested her for a pic and then we clicked a pic along with a selfie.



After which I gave her the gift that I brought for her and she loved it. Abha maam who was sitting on the swing also loved it. I said it looked like those beach glasses which used to be shown in cartoons. Ashi said yes and she would love to use it. Then I told her that since Randeep was not shooting today can I give his gift to her as well and she can give him the next time he comes on set. She happily agreed. I gave her the other glass I brought for Randeep and Ashi said “wow hum dono Sameer naina isme saath main piyenge”. Even abha maam said “hain boht pyara hai dono use karna”. I then requested Ashi for an autograph and she happily gave it. I was about to ask her for my friend but unfortunately the next shot was ready and she had to leave.

I waited for the shot to get over also because I wanted to meet abha maam. Once the shot was over Ashi was in rush because she had to change her dress so I met Abha maam. Abha Maam was really sweet and cute. After I hugged her she asked me if I have met her before I said no. she again confirmed and then said may be someone with similar look must have met her. I told her I am from Delhi and last time I visited the set it was in July but college shoot was going on. She was surprised and said you came all the way from Delhi and I smiled. I told her how happy and glad I am that I got to meet her. I told her that I love the way she portrays Taiji onscreen, she was delighted. We quickly took a picture. I was going to take her autograph when the director said shot is ready and that meant meeting time up. While I was leaving some other fans visited the set it was a family with a small kid.

Then I thanked the person for making me meet Ashi and Abha maam. I asked about Ayesha so I was informed that she is in the makeup room. I went downstairs and to my luck this time sameer’s room was open. So yes I did a chance pe dance I went inside his room. But wait sameer’s room is just below naina’s drawing room. The room was not in order but yes I got to see the whole room. That hallway which is shown outside sameer’s room even that I saw. Hallway had a door which was connected to our red rose.




After coming out of the room I asked for Ayesha. I was told she was in the makeup room. I requested to please make me meet her as last time I couldn’t meet her and this time I didn’t wanted to leave without meeting. After requesting for some time I was taken to the makeup room where I got to meet Ayesha. She was really sweet. I told her how last time I missed meeting her, she smiled. I requested for a picture and then an autograph. Ashi was also there in the room. But after that they were called for the shoot so they left.





After that I also went and saw the school cum college building. They only have two rooms one is that principal room and the other is their classroom which gets converted into music room activity room etc. I wonder where the library is, probably my next mission when I visit the set again. The set is like a treasure it’s fun to explore it believe me. After seeing the college area I was about to leave the set when I spotted Nageen maam (the writer of the show). I went up to her and told her we all love the show and the dialogues. Also thanked her for writing it so beautifully. After that I left the set.



So yeah, it was a very pleasing and a memorable visit. Thankfully unlike last time I wasn’t in a hurry to leave. Unfortunately the next day the entire gang was there as college scene was supposed to be shot but since I didn’t wanted to take a risk as the schedule wasn’t confirmed for the 11th I went on 10th to the sets. Touchwood next time I get a chance to visit the set hopefully most of the cast would be present especially the gang (fingers crossed).


P.s Thank You Farzana di and Amby for always being there for me.

    Yeh Un Dinon Ki Baat Hai Set Visit

    Discussion 
    On 9th July 2018 around 11 am I got a call that yes I can visit the set as they are shooting today. My excitement level knows no bounds; I was jumping like a small kid. One of the reason to be happy other than visiting the set was that I got the permission to visit the set. Yes, entering Film City is not easy CISF stops you at gate and asks for either your identity card or permission letter, message etc. If you fail to show, they don’t let you go in. Therefore, technically, I had crossed the biggest hurdle that could have come in between and I was very happy. I was in Mumbai for three days only and on 9th evening I had my flight back to Delhi. I tried to meet them on Sunday but unfortunately they were not shooting on Sunday and this was like my last chance. Nevertheless, a permission to visit the set on 9th July 2018 gave me a hope that I would finally get to meet them, little did I know that nature would be playing a villain. I had to reach the set between 1:30 pm to 2 pm but due to rains, I reached one hour late that is around 3 pm. I had almost lost hope of meeting them as I had a flight to catch as well but destiny was with me it seemed like. When I reached, they had just gone to change their dress for the next shot. Therefore, I was told that when they will walk out from their makeup rooms towards the shot area that’s the time I can meet them because if they start shooting I won’t be able to meet for almost two hours because they had to shoot back to back. They also told me had I come sometime back I would have met them in Sameer and naina’s look now they are in different look. I said its ok no problem I just want to meet them. Then slowly I started seeing the other cast. I saw the extras also who stand in background and recognized few of them as well. That's the school/ college area inside the shoot was supposed to happen inside that. I saw kamya and hema but before I could approach them from the other side, I saw kartik and priyank coming out of the makeup room. What caught my attention was that behind them I saw Sanjay aka Munna coming towards the shoot area. I walked towards him and shook hands with him while introducing myself. I told my name and said I am from Delhi. I showed him my poem and he read few lines before saying he will read it after the shot. I said ok and then asked if I could click a picture with him, he agreed. He adjusted his hair and then we clicked pictures. After that, he left for the shot. His voice was very sweet in real life. I was recovering from that moment when I saw Raghav aka Pandit coming. I went towards him and shook hands while repeating my introduction again. He also read few lines from my poem. He said he will read it after the shot but its nice (based on few lines that he read) and said you would be here right. How I wish I could but alas I had a flight to catch so said I may not be as I have a flight to catch. I requested him for a picture and then we clicked few pictures. Before leaving he said do watch the show on TV and I said I watch on TV only. He was very sweet. Then I realized while meeting the two I missed Ayesha aka preeti and Kristina aka swati as girls makeup room was on other side so they had already towards the shooting place. I was about to go there when I saw Randeep aka Sameer walking towards the shoot area. I rushed towards him. He was totally unrecognizable he was in dhoti kurta and beard. I tried hard not to laugh seeing him. If I had seen that look earlier, I would not have had to control my laughter. I introduced myself and asked if he has two minutes to spare. He said he is getting late for the shot so I said can I please have a picture with you. He looked towards someone and asked “yeh look reveal nahiin karna hai na”. That person said yeah I was about to say ok disappointedly when my friend said she won’t upload the picture till the look is revealed. He again looked towards that person and this time I said please with a smile. That person didn’t say anything and then Randeep said ok. We quickly clicked picture and he said don’t reveal it I said I won’t it’s a promise. I gave him my poem’s copy and he went towards the shot area. Then I realized I needed to meet Ayesha and swati but by that time, the shoot had started. I was waiting for ashi aka naina but someone said her scenes are after one hour so she is in make-up room. I requested someone that please take me there as I am in a hurry I have to catch a flight. That person said ok and took me to her room. She was sitting there in a saree and at first, I was like is this nanu’s saree but then realized only the blouse is same saree is different. I again repeated my activity shook hands and introduced myself. I then apologized her for entering the makeup room like this but I had to leave for airport and I didn’t wanted to leave before meeting her. She said its ok and then I gave her my poem. She read the entire poem and while reading she said, “I am sorry I am bad at reading poems” I said its ok. She was reading the poem as if reading some passage continuously without pausing and all. She was continuously smiling while reading the poem and at the end, she said it is very nice. She said she liked the poem very much. I then requested for a picture and then we clicked few pictures. For clicking my picture, I had kept my bag on floor so ashi picked that up and kept it on a chair. She said, “I don’t like keeping bag and things like that on floor I prefer keeping it on chair”. I smiled and then we clicked the picture. Before leaving I told her that the next time I visit Mumbai I will try to stay longer so that I can meet other cast as well properly she said yeah sure. Believe me while meeting everyone my heartbeat was beating at faster rate, a shiver ran down my spine and I was also nervous at the same time. Only I know how I controlled my increasing heartbeat and my nervousness. After that, I roamed the set for few minutes and then left the set and Film City, as I had to catch my flight. While roaming the set I saw naina’s house, I went to their room, stepped in balcony and then I decided to see taiji’s house. As soon as I entered taiji’s house bang it was not taiji’s house it was Sameer’s house. I was stunned but then I was like may be because of cost cutting they converted taiji’s house into sameer’s house. That house which is shown as Sameer’s house is somewhere else not here for sure. Nevertheless, sameer’s room is not in that house its on ground floor on the left hand side of the colony gate. The place/ door where Sameer sits and talks with naina and few leaves are shown is on the set itself near the entry gate of the colony. That room was closed so I couldn’t go inside it. Note the place behind me was sameer's room that's what I was told. Since I didn't see it I cant guarantee it whether it was true or not. The jungle scene which they shoot is also in film city in fact just outside the set, the road on which they are seen travelling for naina’s birthday that you can also say is the way towards set. Balcony of Taiji's house and at back its Chacha ji's house balcony. Lastly, Even though my meet was very short, yet it was sweet and memorable. Hoping for a longer meet the next time I visit the set. P.s Thank You to two of my mumbai Friends (Farzana di and Amby) who constantly helped me and were by my side through out everything. Love you P.s.s Pic Credit Farzana di
