The source of the leading daily revealed, “Kanchi wasn’t happy with the way her track was shaping up. Her character was sidelined and after much contemplation, she decided to call it quits. She will shoot her last episode around the end of September.”
Confirming the news, Kanchi said, “Yes, I have quit the show. I didn’t see any future for my character. I totally understand that shifting focus from a popular couple — Kartik and Naira — to any other character could be detrimental to the show, but my character was completely sidelined in the bargain. I wish the ‘Yeh Rishta…’ team all the best. I’ll always be indebted to producer Rajan Shahi, who launched me in the industry. I would like to play meaningful characters now and have decided to take up only lead roles.”
Kanchi rose to fame with Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. Actress was also in news when she fell in love with her co-actor Rohan Mehra on the show.
