Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2

Priya serves her sentence and is blessed with a girl who she names Pihu. Both Ram and Pihu, learn about being father-daughter. Ram ends up knowing the truth behind Shivina's death and finally reunites with Pihu and Priya. Soon enough, Vedika, Shubham and Nandini are exposed in front of Ram who subsequently ousts Vedika. Priya gets pregnant for the second time.

Shubham and Sid crack a deal with Yash Khanna with Ram's help, which unknowingly sets Ram to cross paths with his much-alive mother Swati and brother Lakhan. Lakhan loves Avni, Yash Khanna's daughter, who in turn wants her to marry Sid. Ram and Lakhan are at loggerheads, when the truth of them being brothers comes out. In a bid to destroy Ram, Shubham and Siddharth plan to kill Priya. Nandini, Priya and Ram have a final showdown at Sood House. Ram and Priya learn the reality behind Swati's desertion and soon the Sood House is set on fire. Nandini seeing Ram and Priya still caring for her life, realises her mistake and in-turn saves them but dies. Priya delivers Prachi. Both Ram and Priya pass away, hugging each other.

Lakhan has now taken over Ram's business. His relationship with Pihu and Prachi is not so good, but he believes that he has a responsibility to take care of the kids. Avni is married to Sid amidst the leap.

Pihu gets attracted to Raghav, Lakhan's secretary, who instead harbours feelings for Prachi. Brinda and Aditya's adoptive son, Angad, has feelings for Pihu. Prachi learns that Pihu loves someone but Pihu doesn't reveal it. But when she is confronted by Angad who confesses his true feelings for her, but learns that she doesn't love him but Raghav.

Avni and Sid's son, Josh, plans on taking over the Kapoors' wealth by winning over Prachi. On the other hand, Lakhan asks Raghav to make Prachi fall in love with Josh, and eventually, Prachi starts liking Josh who manipulates her in getting an entry in Kapoors' business. Josh learns that Raghav loves Prachi, so he frames Raghav to create differences between him and Prachi. Josh also manipulates Lakhan into removing Raghav from Kapoor Mansion. Pihu and Angad, however, side with Raghav and leave Kapoor mansion.

Prachi's relationship with Lakhan and Monica is mended and they have accepted both the Kapoor sisters as their daughters. Raghav, Pihu and Angad return and plan on saving Prachi's life and kicking out Josh from her life. They are also helped by Lakhan, Monica, Adi, Brinda, Sara and Vikrant. They all try to make Prachi realize about Josh's true colors.

Josh and Prachi get engaged but when he suspects her of having an affair with Raghav and does not trust her, she breaks off their relation and refuses to marry him. Prachi meets with an accident and while in hospital, she over-hears Pihu and Angad, where she learns that the person Pihu loved was Raghav. Prachi realizes her feelings for Raghav but decides to sacrifice for Pihu and proposes Josh again to marry.

Raghav finds out about Sid's hand behind Ram and Priya's murder and is helped by Avni in exposing him. Pihu confesses her love for Angad.

In May 2021, it was confirmed that Ekta Kapoor's show, Bade Achhe Lagte Hain which was originally broadcast from 2011 to 2014 will return with a fresh cast and different storyline.[5]

Nakuul Mehta was finalized to play the male lead, Ram Kapoor.[6] For the female lead Priya Sood, Divyanka Tripathi was approached who rejected the offer and eventually, Disha Parmar was signed by the makers.[7][3] The show marks the second collaboration between Mehta and Parmar as they previously co-starred in Pyaar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyaara Pyaara (2012–2014).[8][9]

In December 2022, Nakuul Mehta decided to quit the show. He said, "I feel, creatively, full having been a part of it for so long. The story is going to places and I feel going ahead there’s nothing new I can bring to it. I will miss playing Ram. I feel I have paid my dues to the makers and the audiences in the last 18 months."[10]

In January 2023 it was confirmed that show will take a generation leap. Leenesh Mattoo, Pooja Banerjee, Niti Taylor and Randeep Rai were cast as Angad, Pihu, Prachi and Raghav respectively.[11][12]

The first promo of the series was revealed and released by the show producer Ekta Kapoor on 12 August 2021 featuring Nakuul Mehta and Disha Parmar as Ram and Priya.[13] The first look poster of the upcoming season of the series was unleashed by the show leads Nakuul Mehta and Disha Parmar, at the grand finale episode of Indian Idol 12.[14][15] The show's premier date was officially announced on 19 August 2021.[16]

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2 and Appnapan – Badalte Rishton Ka Bandhan came together for an integration week, called "Mahasangam Saptah". The episodes revolved around Vikrant and Sara's wedding ceremonies, which took place in Meerut.[17]

Letty Mariam Abraham of Mid-Day stated "Mehta and Parmar put their best foot forward as they carry the show on their shoulders." She also noted that if the series is "relatable without indulging in melodrama ... it may well surpass its original."[18]

Gursimran Kaur of Times Of India stated "Nakuul Mehta steps into the shoes of Ram Kapoor beautifully. He does justice to his part. Disha Parmar takes the cake with her simplicity and genuinity."[19]
