Guest appearances

Production

Development and premiere

Kapoor said, "I created Divyanka's character as a dentist in 'Yeh Hai Mohabbatein', as I was having a lot of tooth trouble those days. My dentist sorted my problems a lot, so I brought that character alive"
The show was initially titled Custody as it was based on Manju Kapur's 2011 novel Custody. It was renamed to Mera Tera Rishta Purana before again being changed to Yeh Hai Mohabbatein. The production began about a year before its premiere, but the launch was delayed due to creative differences and desired time slots being unavailable.
In November 2019, Ekta Kapoor revealed, "When I started Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, I remember going to Gaurav Banerjee from Star Plus and asking him for a non-prime time slot because I wanted to do a show on a social issue. I had stopped watching much television and I wanted to make YHM without the trappings of a TRP driven show. A show about a woman who cannot have children, a stepmother who according to Indian terms is considered bad! Words in India like barren and evil stepmother got used so often and labelled women in the worst poss way. This show got so much love that it went on for six years. And from a non-prime time slot to a prime-time slot."
In September 2014, Deepika Padukone and Arjun Kapoor were to promote their film Finding Fanny, which also starred the Yeh Hai Mohabbatein lead Tripathi Dahiya and Patel. Patel was unable to make the shooting, and so the script was changed in his absence at the last minute, as Deepika and Arjun could not reschedule.
On 11 May 2016, during filming of the wedding sequence of characters Romi and Mihika, the shoot was stalled owing to a fight between the production house and workers union. On 25 July 2018, the shoot was stalled for a while during bandh in Mumbai.

Casting

Other cast members then chosen were Aly Goni, Mihika Verma, Shruti Bapna, Neena Kulkarni, Shahnaz Rizwan, Kaushal Kapoor, Abhay Bhargava and Gautam Ahuja.
In March 2018, Charu Mehra was supposed to join the series during the filming in London, however, she was unable to due to visa issues.

Filming

Based on the backdrop of Delhi, the series is mainly filmed in Andheri, Mumbai. Some sequences were filmed abroad, including in Adelaide, Budapest and London.

Spin-off

Yeh Hai Chahatein premiered on 19 December 2019, replacing Yeh Hai Mohabbatein. It focuses on Ishita's niece Preesha Khurana opposite Abrar Qazi as Rudraksh Khurana.
The story revolves around a famous rockstar, Rudraksh Khurana, and a gynaecologist, Dr Preesha Srinivasan who fall in love after raising their respective siblings' son together.

Reception

Despite first airing in the late night slot 11:00pm, Yeh Hai Mohabbatein received better ratings than expected and ranked as the fourth most popular show on Star Plus. In 2014, it was moved to the 7:30pm slot replacing Saraswatichandra. Star Plus SVP marketing Nikhil Madhok stated that the move was made after audiences' feedback that a section of viewers found the 11:00pm slot too late. He further explained, "This was a show where repeat viewing the next day or viewing on online digital medium is very high. So the dual airing will not only help the existing viewers who love the show to watch it twice but also add a whole new set of viewers".
The ratings of the show saw a dip after the time jump when the writers refused to move away from the custody battles between Raman Ishita and Shagun. The show remained popular in the UK, being the most-watched Indian show there. The climax of the arc involving Ruhi and Nikhil, leading to Ananya's death, brought a sudden spike in the ratings in the first week of November 2017 and the series secured a place amongst the Top 10 shows after almost a year off this ranking. With the Budapest arc and the focus back on the main leads, the show reached the Top 5 in the second week of November 2017. In week 46 of the year 2017, the show further climbed to the fourth spot on the TRP chart, thus becoming the most-watched show on StarPlus. In week 47 of the year 2017, the show remained at 4 on the TRP charts and continued to be the most-watched show on StarPlus. The show continued to do well maintaining its No. 1 position on StarPlus in the following weeks. In week 51 of 2017, Yeh Hai Mohabbatein emerged as the most-watched show across all Hindi GECs.
In week 8 of the year 2018, the show remained at 3 on the TRP charts and continued to be the most-watched show on STAR Plus. In May 2018, the show was shifted to 10:30 p.m. from 7:30 p.m. which led to a fall in TRPs. Roshni's baby arc was received poorly by fans, which led to a further downfall in TRPs. StarPlus intervened, asking the producer, Ekta Kapoor, to change the storyline of the show while also giving it a 6-month deadline to increase the ratings. Ishita's fake death drama to expose Param led to the show re-entering the top 20 shows in week 31 of the year 2018 occupying 18th place with 3889 million viewership. After the change in show timings to late night TRPs have dropped ranging from 1.2 to 1.4 mostly but had been the slot leader since then. After being unable to pull up the TRP and lack of constructive story, the show went off air on 18 December 2019, giving space to the Yeh Hain Mohabatein spin-off called Yeh Hain Chahatein.
