Star Plus' Ishqbaaaz has overtaken everyone's social media timeline from last week, ever since rumours of the show undertaking a time-leap started doing the rounds. These rumours were accompanied by news of how lead actress Surbhi Chandna was not on board with the channel's idea of playing a mother on screen. While producer Gul Khan confirmed the news of the leap, she had refused to divulge details of the show. EXCLUSIVE: Producer Gul Khan Confirms Ishqbaaaz Leap; Details Below.
After this, we'd EXCLUSIVELY reported about how the show would go on with the story of Shivaay and Anika's son Shivaansh Singh Oberoi and how actor Nakuul Mehta would be seen playing the role. We had also reported about how barring Nakuul, the rest of the main cast, namely Surbhi Chandna, and Kunal Jaisingh were also bidding goodbye to the show.

Well, this statement from Surbhi made us wonder if the lady is returning with the second season of Ishqbaaaz? While there is no confirmation at this point, we'd like to state the obvious -- this is television and anything can happen here. Also, considering the kind of campaigns that fans of the show are running on social media, there may be a possibility that the makers and the channel may give in.
Do you want to see Surbhi continue to be a part of Ishqbaaaz post the leap?
