Zee
TV's
show
Pavitra
Rishta
is
one
of
the
most
popular
shows
in
the
history
of
Indian
television.
Actors
like
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
and
Ankita
Lokhande
had
got
recognition
for
their
characters
Manav
and
Archana
in
the
Ekta
Kapoor
show.
Now,
after
many
years,
makers
are
planning
for
its
digital
version,
which
is
fondly
called
Pavitra
Rishta
2.0.
Earlier,
we
had
reported
that
Ankita
Lokhande
will
be
reprising
her
iconic
role
in
its
digital
version,
whereas,
makers
are
searching
for
the
actor
to
play
the
male
protagonist
post-Sushant
Singh
Rajput's
demise.
Reports
suggest
that
Manit
Joura
will
be
seen
playing
the
role
of
Manav
in
Pavitra
Rishta
2.0.
However,
there
is
no
official
confirmation
about
the
same.
Well,
Pavitra
Rishta
was
also
known
for
its
powerful
supporting
cast.
Especially,
Usha
Nadkarni's
character
Savita
Tai
(Manav's
mother)
was
the
most
celebrated
characters
on
Indian
television.
She
had
literally
stolen
the
show
with
her
amazing
performance.
However,
she
will
not
be
a
part
of
Pavitra
Rishta's
digital
version.
The
veteran
actress
informed
Pinkvilla
about
the
same.
Usha
Nadkarni
said,
"No,
I
am
not
doing
that.
Because
of
the
Covid
scare,
my
family
doesn't
let
me
step
out
of
the
house.
I
am
old,
and
I
have
diabetes
too.
In
fact,
I
was
a
part
of
Marathi
Bigg
Boss
for
77
days,
and
was
called
to
be
a
part
of
the
Hindi
version
of
the
show
too
for
15
days.
Everything
was
finalised
but
then
my
son
asked
me
not
to
participate
in
it,
as
one
never
knows
from
where
you
can
get
infected."
Let
us
tell
you
that
Usha
Nadkarni
shared
a
strong
bond
with
Sushant
Singh
Rajput.
After
his
demise,
she
also
remembered
the
actor
by
paying
tribute
to
him
at
the
Zee
Rishtey
Awards.
Coming
back
to
the
Pavitra
Rishta
2.0,
Usha's
absence
will
surely
be
felt
in
the
show.
After
all,
she
is
a
powerhouse
of
talent
and
knows
how
to
keep
audience
engaged.
