SpotboyE.com snooped around and found out that it was Ekta who vetoed Hina’s casting. Ekta was of the opinion that the audience was so used to seeing Hina as Akshara, the doting mother of two children, that they will not be able to accept her as a fantasy temptress.
Of course, TV czarina Ekta’s decision was the final one and the channel started scouting for talent once again.
They approached Jamai Raja star Nia Sharma and Digangana Suryavanshi and they are still waiting for their leading lady.
