A medical camp is arranged in a village where Armaan and Riddhima come closer towards each other. Slowly, they become friends. Riddhima learns that she is Nurse Padma's daughter and not Dr Shashank's real daughter. Anjali makes a bet with Armaan that Riddhima will fall for him. Riddhima learns about this. She is heartbroken. After few instances, they resolve their differences, and Riddhima finally confesses her love to Armaan. They are enjoying their togetherness.

Two new interns enter Dr Rahul Garewal and Dr Muskaan Chadda. Rahul and Armaan have a tashan between them. Muskaan likes Armaan and Rahul likes Riddhima. Meanwhile, Atul started liking Anjali and Sapna marries a patient. Rahul and Muskaan's family wants them to get married, but they don't want to. To get away from this situation, Muskaan receives help from Armaan without telling Riddhima about this. This leads to a separation between Armaan and Riddhima. Rahul now knows about them.

Nurse Padma and Dr Shashank wed. Dr Shubhanker likes Dr Keerti. Riddhima and Armaan become friends again, and eventually, they confess again, marking their togetherness. On the other side, Muskaan and Rahul develop feelings for each other. Dr Nikita Malhotra joins Sanjeevani. Nikita turns out to be Armaan's and Rahul's college friend secretly in love with Armaan. Dr Abhimanyu Modi enters Sanjeevani to save it from a financial crisis. He makes some decisions that the interns did not accept. They do non-cooperation movement and arrange a special show to collect funding. Dr Abhimanyu develops feelings for Dr Riddhima first. All the friends doubt that Armaan and Riddhima are together. So, they ask Nikita's help. But Nikita helps Armaan instead in keeping the secret, and they all think Armaan and Nikita have a scene instead of Riddhima. Armaan thinks of impressing Dr Shashank, disguising himself and changing his looks into a soft, straightforward person. Riddhima is pissed off because of this. Armaan arranges a particular date for her. Unfortunately, the police catch them, and everyone learns about them. No one allows them to meet each other. Armaan takes help from all their friends to persuade Dr Shashank and Anjali against their relationship. He starts living outside their house in a tent. The media started to publicise this matter. Finally, on Valentine's Day, Dr Shashank gives in due to Ridhhima's deteriorating health and accepts them, "Dr Love" gets his love, and Armaan Riddhima comes together. Their Roka is planned.

Armaan Riddhima started to have differences on this. Dr Keerti and Shubhanker wed. Bubbly, sister of Dr Shubhanker, is frank with Armaan, which Riddhima does not like. Due to Dr Abhimanyu and Bubbly, Armaan Riddhima have constant fights. One day, Armaan had an accident, and he lost his recent memory, including Riddhima. Riddhima is heartbroken. Armaan makes fun of her unknowingly that she is her life, Riddhima. Armaan has to rewrite the medical exam. She helps him. Both come closer. Friends try to tell Armaan how much he loved her. They both are together again. They are about to get engaged. On the day of engagement, a pregnant couple tries to hide in the hospital. Prominent politicians were involved in the case.

Development

After the end of Sanjeevani - a medical boon, Siddharth Malhotra decided to make Dill Mill Gayye as a sequel of the show.The actor Mohnish Bahl reprised his role of Dr. Shashank from Sanjeevani and was the only common link between the shows.[14]

In an Interview with Times of India, Pankit Thakker talked about three actresses playing the role of Dr. Riddhima Gupta and stated that:

All of them had different personalities. Shilpa was the first Riddhima and our bond together was very strong. Then came Sukirti and Dr. Riddhima’s went through certain changes. Actually, their on-screen characters were written as per their personalities. All the characters were sketched like that.[15]

Casting

Earlier, Haroon Qazi was cast as Dr. Armaan but due to creative difference he was replaced with Karan Singh Grover.[16] Karan Singh Grover and Shilpa Anand played the main characters Dr. Armaan and Dr. Riddhima.[17]

Shilpa Anand initially gave audition for the role of Dr. Anjali Gupta. When her look test was done for a promo with Karan Singh Grover, their on screen chemistry made the creative team's mind change, Immediately. Later Sunaina Gulia was signed for the role.[18] Pankit Thakker was original paired up with Muskaan Mihani.[19] But he believed his chemistry with Muskaan was mostly coming out friendly. Hence, he discussed with the creative directors if they could change the track so they'd paired him up with Sunaina.[15]

In 2008, Shilpa Anand quit the show owing to the differences between the production house and to pursue a career in Bollywood.[16][20] She was replaced by Sukirti Kandpal who quit the show in 2009[21] and was replaced by Jennifer Winget.[22] Nearing the end of 2009, the whole cast was changed and a second season was introduced.[23][24]

In 2010, Karan Singh Grover and Shilpa Anand both actors returned to the show on fans' demands and Anand played different character, Dr. Shilpa Malhotra.[25][26][27][28]

Filming

In 2008, during shoot of a basketball playing scene actress Shilpa Anand began feeling unwell and almost passed out on the set due to over heat, but she continued shooting.[29]

Special scenes

The series had shot many scenes which resemble some of the scenes from Bollywood. "The aur pass" scene and Lonavala sequence between Karan Singh Grover and Shilpa Anand were inspired from Bollywood film Dil Toh Pagal Hai.[30]

Controversy

In 2007, The Times of India reported that gang of girls on the sets of Dill Mill Gayye decided to stay away from Karan Singh Grover because of his compulsive flirting.[31] In an exclusive Interview with "Spotboye", Shilpa Anand revealed that she quit the show in 2008 because she had a fight with the executive producer during shoot of "Zara Zara Touch Me Touch Me" dance sequence.[16]

In 2009, when Sukirti Kandpal had quit the show, the producer Siddharth Malhotra approached Shilpa Anand for returning to Dill Mill Gayye but she asked for high amount of money which caused a conflict between her and the producer.[21] Cinevistaas Limited stated that they had lodged a complaint against Karan Singh Grover for routinely reporting hours late for work, which made them incur a loss and also actress Jennifer Winget slapped him on the set. They didn't speak to each other for months, used to shoot for their scenes separately at two different times.[32][33] In 2010, a rumor spread that the rest of the three actors - Karan Singh Grover, Karan Wahi and Jennifer Winget were unhappy about the focus getting shifted to Dr. Shilpa Malhotra.[26]

Reception

In 2010, The Times of India reported that Dill Mill Gayye was a TRP-tripper when Karan Singh Grover and Shilpa Anand played Dr. Armaan and Dr. Riddhima.[23] In 2012, They listed Karan Singh Grover among "Big icons of small screen" and stated that he was a huge teenage icon in 2007 and even one and half year after the show's off air, there were demands for another season.[34]
