The popular Colors’ fare, Beintehaa, is all set to re-run in South Africa on Glow TV.

The leads of the show, Zain-Aaliya aka Harshad Arora and Preetika Rao are still remembered for their sizzling chemistry.

When we contacted Preetika, she shared, “It’s amazing that Beintehaa has managed to connect with native audiences of so many different countries in such a short span of time! Along with India, it has also been launched in Pakistan on ARY Zindagi, which fetched me many Pakistan fans. Then it was dubbed and released in Indonesia on ANTV and within few months, I had Indonesian girls making online fan-clubs, wearing T-shirts with my picture printed on it and posing at multiple places with me on life-size posters. They were also sweet enough to courier several gifts for me on Christmas and my birthday.”

She continued, “Beintehaa then released in Turkey and was titled Benimsin on Kanal7 and this time, the response was phenomenal. I had several Turkish guys propose to me online and majority of my male fan-following is from Turkey. The Turkish people write to me that they connect with me because I played a virtuous Muslim girl whom they idolise and love dearly. It's exciting that Beintehaa is now making its way to South Africa on Glow TV titled “Endless Love". I am keen to see how audiences would receive it in that part of the world as there are several Indian families settled there as well. All this goes to prove that you need not necessarily be a Bollywood actress to be internationally famous as TV can take you there as well.”

Very well said, Preetika!
