In an interaction with Bollywood Hungama, a fan’s observation was posed to Neena. The fan had written, “Don’t tell me Kanwaljit Singh is Neena Gupta’s son in the movie? They were co-stars in the 90s. SMH.” Neena responded with a laugh, “Bhaiya yehi toh acting ka maza hai. Kal jo aapka lover tha woh aapka beta hai, yehi toh maza hai (That’s the joy of acting; someone could play both your lover and your son. It’s fun).”
Saans revolved around married couple Priya Kapoor (Neena Gupta) and Gautam Kapoor (Kanwaljit Singh), their teenage kids Akul and Mithi, and an extra-marital affair that threatens their relationship.
In a 2017 interview with Hindustan Times, Kanwaljit had said about the show, “I had always played an honest, positive guy which people expected from me. But I also wanted to try a new role. Despite that, I ensured that Gautam wasn’t shown as a villain but as a grey character, who loved his kids and felt responsible for Priya.”
