Naamkaran: Barkha Bisht’s Track To End; Actress Upset!

Recently, there were reports that Barkha Bisht's character Asha would soon end on the show Naamkaran. It was said that Asha will die in an accident that was plotted by Daya, Ashish's mother.

When asked whether her track was coming to an end, Barkha denied the reports. She said that she do not have any idea about any such plot. She was quoted by an entertainment website as saying, "If there are any such plans of the character of Asha ending, you know very well that actors are the last to know about such things."

The rumours turned out to be true and Barkha is upset with her track ending suddenly. She was quoted by a leading daily as saying, "I didn't expect Asha to be bumped off, as she is one of the core characters of the show. The producers informed me the moment they finalised the track, and it doesn't seem to be an overnight decision. Every two weeks, we were trying something new to up the ratings."

She added, "I am practical and understand the pulse of the industry. I am sad that I am out of a show, which I have been part of since its inception. I think they decided to end my character because of its shock value. Had it been any other character, the level of shock would have been lesser."

It was said that she didn't get along with child artiste Arsheen Namdaar, who played her daughter Avni in the show. When asked about the same, Barkha said, "The story was always from Avni's perspective and hence, she was the protagonist. But that doesn't mean that I was any less important. A 10-year-old can't make me feel insecure."

She further added, "As far as not getting along with her is concerned, you don't connect with all your colleagues; it's just that I had a better equation with other people. Today's children are extremely professional and mature for their age because of the exposure they get. My love, affection and patience are only for my daughter."

Well, we are sure audiences will miss Barkha on the show for sure...
