The room was about 20ft x 15ft and there were small rooms around it.” Karmarkar further said there was a sense of peace in the environment and not even the noise of trolley shots.
He said that for eight years, they all recorded the show in a small set, unlike other high budgets sets. Karmarkar appreciated Ekta that despite a small set, she made the show a hit. Sakshi Tanwar, the female lead of the show, earlier said, “When I was shooting for Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki, that was the only thing I was doing for those eight years. I did not attend any weddings, nothing. I wouldn’t get time.’’
