Imlie: Fahmaan Khan Is Happy That Fans Accepted Him As Lead; Says He Isn't Okay With Having Kids In Reel Life

Imlie is one of the top five shows on the TRP chart. A couple of months ago, the lead actor of the show Gashmeer Mahajani, who played the role of Aditya Kumar Tripathi, quit the show apparently because of his character becoming less prominent. Gashmeer was replaced by Manasvi Vashist. However, post Gashmeer's exit, the parallel lead of the show Fahmaan Khan's character became prominent. But, Fahmaan said that he didn't know such thing would happen.

Fahmaan said that he didn't know anything with surety. He said that initially he was skeptical to take up this offer, as before taking up Imlie, he had played a lead in a show, but here, he was entering the show midway as a prominent character and not as a lead.

The actor further said that he spoke to the creative team and he genuinely liked the character and how it was written. He added that he didn't know that Gashmeer was planning to quit at the time but he knew that his character would be getting prominent day by day.

Fahmaan added that after his mock shoot, he had a word with the creative team and he loved his character so much that he didn't really care what was going to happen later on the show. He added that he was told, "Aap bhi ho show ke lead (You are also a lead of this show)."

The actor said that he was happy that there was not much trolling on social media and fans accepted him with open arms. He gave complete credit for the smooth transition of Gashmeer leaving the show to his character taking centre stage, to the makers.

He added, "Gashmeer is a great actor and the reason for which he has quit Imlie is best known to him. But I had a great time working with him. The complete credit for the smooth transition of Gashmeer leaving the show and my character taking centre stage goes to the makers. With people complimenting me for my role and with the ratings of the show not dropping after Gashmeer's exit, I thank god for all that. Thankfully there hasn't been much trolling for me on social media too. I have come across a few quarrels among fans but nothing against me. I am happy that the fans have accepted me with open arms as the lead of the show."

As of now, Fahmaan is not okay with having kids on-screen. He concluded by saying, "I take each day as it comes. I have nothing against or for finite and infinite shows. I wouldn't mind being a part of a show for several years if it is doing well and the story is moving somewhere. However, for now, I don't think I will be okay with having kids on screen."
