Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Controversy: Shivangi Joshi REACTS To Shehzada Dhami-Pratiksha's Replacement

Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Controversy: Star Plus' hit show has featured several celebs as leads. It started with Hina Khan and Karan Mehra and later, Shivangi Joshi-Mohsin Khan took over the charge. After the third generation was introduced, Harshad Chopda and Pranali Rathod played the main leads. Last year, Samridhii Shukla and Shehzada Dhami joined the serial.

WHY WAS SHEHZADA DHAMI FIRED FROM YEH RISHTA KYA KEHLATA HAI?

In a major development, Rahan Shahi announced the departure of Pratiksha Honmukhe and Shehzada Dhami. Last month, he released a statement to inform the fans about the termination of their contracts.

The Anupamaa producer accused Shehzada of 'unprofessionalism', mentioning that he misbehaved with the crew and threw tantrums on the sets. Shahi alleged that 'Dhami's disregard for ethics was evident from the first day of shoot.

"Recent events have prompted Directors Kut Production to take a firm stance against unprofessional behavior displayed by two actors from the TV show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Shehzada Dhami, and Pratiksha Honmukhe. Shehzada Dhami's disregard for work ethics became evident from day one, as he consistently threw tantrums and mistreated the crew," Rajan Shahi said in his official statement as quoted as saying by BollywoodLife.

SHIVANGI JOSHI ON SHEHZADA DHAMI GETTING REPLACED IN YEH RISHTA KYA KEHLATA HAI

Shivangi Joshi, who attended the Eid 2024 party on the sets of Anupamaa, was asked to comment on YRKKH controversy after Shehzada Dhami and Pratiksha Dhami were fired from the serial.

The TV diva, who shot to fame after playing the role of Naira in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, refused to speak about the controversy. She maintained that it would be wrong to comment without knowing about the subject matter.

Dodging the question, the Balika Vadhu 2 actress said that it is not right to share thoughts about an event she is unaware of. "Bina puri baat jaane upse comment karna thik nahi hoga," the Khatron Ke Khiladi 12 contestant told Tellychakkar.

On the professional front, Shivangi Joshi was last seen in Barsatein-Mausam Pyaar Ka. The romantic drama co-starring Kushal Tandon went off air due to low TRPs in February 2024.
