In
a
rather
shocking
turn
of
events,
it’s
been
reported
that
Rashami
Desai
will
no
longer
continue
to
be
a
part
of
Ekta
Kapoor’s
Naagin
4.
The
news
will
surely
disappoint
the
actress’s
fans
who
had
started
watching
the
Colors
TV
show
post
her
entry
and
were
looking
forward
to
seeing
her
as
Shalakha
in
the
upcoming
episodes.
It
must
be
recollected
that
Rashami
had
just
entered
the
fourth
installment
of
Naagin
in
the
new
lead
role
alongside
Nia
Sharma
and
Vijayendra
Kumeria
when
the
COVID-19
lockdown
bought
the
shoot
to
a
halt.
And
now,
due
to
a
break
in
filming
and
the
pandemic
causing
major
losses
for
the
channel
and
producers,
the
creative
team
has
decided
to
revamp
the
show
and
its
storyline
once
the
shoot
resumes
post-lockdown.
This
has
sadly
resulted
in
the
ouster
of
Rashami.
A
source
close
to
the
development
told
SpotboyE,
"The
channel
held
a
meeting
with
the
makers
and
cast
recently,
after
which
Rashami
was
told
that
her
character
of
Shlakha
will
not
be
taken
forward.
The
channel
and
the
producers
are
wanting
to
bring
the
budget
down
as
we
know
how
crunched
the
market
is
as
of
now.
And
Rashami
was
an
expensive
resource.
So,
a
mutual
decision
was
taken
to
let
go
of
her
character.
Decision
on
Nia
Sharma
and
Vijayendra
Kumeria
is
yet
to
be
made."
