actress
Kanika
Maheshwari,
better
known
as
Meenakshi
Bhabhi
is
reportedly
planning
to
quit
the
show.
She
rose
to
fame
with
her
role
of
'Meenakshi'
and
is
known
for
her
acting
skills
in
the
show
for
which
she
has
been
receiving
accolades.
She
has
also
won
many
awards
for
her
role
including
Star
Parivaar
Award,
Indian
Telly
Award
and
Zee
Gold
Award
under
'Best
Actress
in
a
negative
role'
category
for
her
portrayal
of
negative
character
in
the
show.
After
associating
with
the
show
for
over
five
years,
it
is
sad
that
the
actress
is
planning
to
quit
the
show,
as
she
wants
to
explore
different
opportunities.
Also,
she
feels
that
her
character
doesn't
have
much
to
offer,as
it
is
essentially
revolving
around
the
central
characters
now.
A
source
quoted
by
TOI
said,
" Kanika
is
planning
to
quit
the
show.
However,
she
is
unable
to
do
so,
as
she
has
signed
an
exclusive
contract
with
the
channel.
She
has
shared
her
concerns
with
the
production
team.
She
also
feels
that
she
has
not
been
utilised
properly
on
the
show.
If
the
exclusivity
clause
is
not
nullified,
she
will
quit
the
show."
However,
when
contacted
Kanika,
she
said,
"
It
is
still
under
discussion."
Nevertheless,
if
she
quits,
we
will
definitely
miss
our
Meenakshi
Bhabhi
on
the
show.
