Director Lalit Mohan who is responsible for many successful television shows, is debuting as a film director with the Karanvir Bohra starrer Hume Tumse Pyaar Kitna. Speaking about the unique title of the film, Lalit recalled how the movie got its title. "After completing our shoot in Manali, while coming back we (he and Karanvir Bohra) were listening to this song. One of the lines in the song goes - 'Tumhen Koi Aur Dekhe, To Jalataa Hai Dil, Badii Mushkilon Se Phir, Sambhalataa Hai Dil'. And suddenly it created a spark. Karanvir and I looked at each other and we realized the madness and passion in the lyrics of the song. That is when we decided to have this song as the title." BREAKING: Director Lalit Mohan Reveals The Real Reason Why Karanvir Bohra’s Hume Tumse Pyaar Kitna’s Release Was Postponed!

Lalit has directed many successful well-known shows on television. He says,” I have directed a long list of shows including Iss Pyaar Ko Kyaa Naam Doon with Barun Sobti and Sanaya Irani; Qubool Hain and Ishqbaaz. I started my career directing episodes from Bidaai on Star Plus. I have also done youth shows like Humse Hain Life and Suvreen Guggal on Channel V.
