Indian TV shows are known for their long storylines and several time leaps.

However, it the past few years, we have also seen a new trend that is settling, and that is of spin-offs. Yes, quite a few popular TV shows have introduced spin-offs, which may be called as sister-shows to the original one. While there is a striking resemblance, the spin-off has its own feel and essence, with new characters of course!
Spin-off shows are where the story branches out a little, adding in fresh characters, with an enhanced and dramatic plotline. Makers often bring the original and the spin-off shows together for special episodes to increase TRP numbers, and the formula most often than not works wonders.

Kundali Bhagya spin-off series of Kumkum Bhagya. The show starring Dheeraj Dhoopar (Karan), Shraddha Arya (Preeta) in the lead roles premiered on 12 July 2017. When Ekta announced this spin-off series, many were left surprised, as Kumkum Bhagya has been fairing well ever since the beginning. However, Kundali Bhagya was introduced to bring forth a more youth-centric, relatable drama and a completely new cast. From its second week only, Kundali Bhagya grabbed the utmost attention. It not only topped charts but even surpassed the popularity of the original. It is the lead pair Preeta and Karan aka PreeRan's chemistry that has made it so popular today.
