As
television
shows
resumed
work
after
the
government
eased
restrictions,
there
were
many
media
reports
that
stated
that
Shikha
Singh
had
decided
to
quit
Kumkum
Bhagya
after
being
a
part
of
the
show
for
six
years.
This
was
closely
followed
by
the
makers
revealing
that
the
actress
was
being
replaced
with
Ishqbaaz
fame
Reyhna
Malhotra.
However,
Shikha
who
recently
became
a
mother
to
a
baby
girl
has
now
opened
and
revealed
that
she
was
never
informed
about
her
exit.
Shikha
told
TOI,
“I
haven’t
been
officially
informed
yet,
about
being
replaced.
I
didn’t
quit
the
show
and
was
hoping
to
get
back
to
work
in
January
2021,
but
I
think
it
is
unfair
to
expect
the
production
house
to
wait
for
me
till
then.
Also,
I
can’t
resume
work
during
the
COVID-19
crisis,
with
a
newborn
at
home.”
She
went
on
to
add,
“I
am
going
to
miss
my
colleagues,
as
it
was
fun
shooting
for
'Kumkum
Bhagya'.
But,
as
they
say,
the
show
has
to
go
on
and
I
wish
them
all
the
best.”
Meanwhile,
when
Reyhna
was
recently
asked
about
replacing
Shikha
Singh
as
Aliya,
the
actress
stated
that
she
doesn't
see
it
that
way.
She
said
that
she
is
happy
that
Shikha
has
embraced
motherhood
and
feels
her
little
baby
girl
has
blessed
both
of
them
because
she
got
this
role.
“The
last
three
months
have
been
so
confusing
and
I
had
constant
thoughts
of
my
career.
I
was
not
able
to
understand
what
will
be
my
next
role
and
how
will
I
get
something
in
this
situation
but
I
seriously
feel
that
God
has
blessed
me
and
I
am
thankful
to
the
production
house
for
choosing
me," she
added.
