Says the actor, who plays the handsome Dev in the show, "It’s a different experience altogether shooting with all sorts of precautions. But I am happy that I am facing the camera after a long break. To be honest, before reaching the set there were mixed feelings like will it be safe, is it the right decision to start shoot etc. But once I reached the set I saw everything was organised and all necessary precautions were taken and after that, I was relaxed."
