Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin New Hero: Imlie Actor Zohaiib Asshraf Siddiqui To Replace Shakti Arora In GHKPM?

Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin new hero name: The entire TV industry is buzzing with the rumours about Shakti Arora's exit from Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Mein. There's no official confirmation about his departure from the show but gossip mills claimed that he and other actors will bid adieu to the Star Plus drama.

IS SHAKTI ARORA QUITTING GHUM HAI KISIKEY PYAAR MEIIN?

Multiple reports suggested that Shakti Arora will no longer be seen after the 10-year leap. While Bhavika Sharma will be retained, the remaining cast will shoot for their last episode.

"While reports suggested that Shakti Arora's contract was said to be the reason behind the leap, the drop in TRPs also played a significant role in the decision. It was said that the makers decided to bring the leap after the show suffered a decrease in ratings due to clash with IPL 2024. The budget issues were also considered while taking the drastic decision. Considering the salary of the lead actors, the makers thought of trimming down the cost by bringing a fresher face opposite Bhavika. Shakti charges a bomb for the show and hence, the production costs were introduced to bring down the total expenditure," a source exclusively told Filmibeat.

A report in TellyExpress stated that the production house bowed down to the pressure on social media as the fans expressed their displeasure over the leap. Shakti Arora also denied the buzz about the leap, stating that the makers have not informed him about the big development.

WILL SHAKTI ARORA GET REPLACED IN GHUM HAI KISIKEY PYAAR MEIIN?

There's a massive update about the audition for the new lead of Ghum Hai serial. Read on to know more.

A source close to the show exclusively told Filmibeat, "The makers have approached several actors for the show. Zohaiib Asshraf Siddiqui was approached for the show but the creative team has taken a U-turn by not confirming the leap. The time jump has not been confirmed as of yet. The makers might scrap the leap and continue with Shakti Arora as the male lead. It doesn't take a minute for decisions to be changed in the Indian television industry, so don't be surprised if Shakti Arora continues to be a part of Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin."

Zohaiib is currently seen in Milke Bhi Na Hum Mile and there's no chance that he will sign another show on a rival channel. He is well known for his role in Imlie season 2 that starred Megha Chakraborty and Karan Vora.
