Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai | Shehzada Dhami On Fans Criticising New Cast: What Harshad & Pranali…

Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Update: Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, under Rajan Shahi's production house, recently experienced its fourth generation leap, resulting in the departure of Harshad Chopda and Pranali Rathod, who portrayed the iconic characters of Abhimanyu and Akshara, respectively, after a two-year stint on the show.

Taking on the mantle of new leads are Samridhii Shukla and Shehzada Dhami, now essaying the characters of Abhira and Armaan. The introduction of this fresh generation has garnered a somewhat mixed response from the dedicated fan base so far. Despite their recent inclusion in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, the producers have already outlined various captivating twists and turns in the storyline.

SHEHZADA DHAMI ON VIEWERS' CRITICISM FOR NEW CAST

Throughout this transition, devoted viewers of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai have expressed missing the former cast, particularly Harshad and Pranali. In a recent interview with India Forums, new hero Shehzada Dhami aka Armaan opened up about the new cast members receiving criticism from the long-running show's fans.

Talking about the response and hate comments, Shehzada Dhami stated, "I'd like to tell the audience that we work incredibly hard, sometimes for 12 hours, sometimes for 16 hours, and there are instances when we don't even get proper sleep. You all showered immense love on the first three generations of the show, and I believe it's fair. Your affection for them is absolutely justified. However, if we were chosen for this show, if we were considered qualified enough to carry the legacy forward, then I'd like to ask the audience, why the hatred towards us?"

SHEHZADA DHAMI ASKS FANS TO GIVE THE NEW CAST A CHANCE

Requesting viewers to give the new generation a chance, the actor concluded, "We genuinely want our audience to love us too. I would say, please continue to love the older generations as you have, but also give us space. If you don't like us, at least don't hate on us. We are working diligently to give our best and entertain our audience. We are striving hard, and if we can reach even 70 percent of what Harshad and Pranali have done, we will be extremely grateful.''
