Chronicling love in a landscape of thorns, Disney+ Hotstar’s ‘Aashiqana’ brought back double the romance and triple the action. Crafted by series director Gul Khan, the romantic thriller, across its seasons, has been winning hearts for its gripping action, drama and fan-favourite actors - Zayn Ibad Khan and Khushi Dubey, whose characters are called Yash and Chikki respectively. The famous actors have been winning hearts through both seasons with their unique love story that sees them in a love-hate relationship guided by fate and murderers.
In Season 1, the couple faced a masked murderer, while in Season 2, the threat became more prominent with a suspect bio-weapon being developed. As the series’ second season, epitomising ‘murder ke mausam mein pyaar’ comes to an end, here’s a look back at all the turning points in Yash and Chikki’s life that kept fans hooked to ‘Aashiqana’ across seasons.
Chikki Is On The Verge Of Falling In Love
Yash and Chikki follow the arc of two star-crossed lovers who prefer not to be in love with each for their own sanity. But such is a forbidden love that it blooms even under the shadows of a murderer. Chikki falling in love with O Sajna in the background is a testimony to the inescapable truth of love.
Yash Fights Off An Assassin
Aashiqana Season 2 has been known for its high-octane action, which kept viewers at the edge of their seats. One of the most love scenes of the season was Yash coming face to face with a fatal assassin on his quest to save Chikki. This assassin was played by none other than Karanvir Bohra. This spectacle came early in the season and was a treat for action lovers.
Sham’s Confession To The Chauhans
Shyam’s obsession with Chikki crosses the line as he threatens Yash and Chikki's life. On his mission to drive a wedge between the two, he reveals a bitter truth from Chikki’s past.
