KumKum Bhagya: Shabir Ahluwalia AKA Abhi Quits Ekta Kapoor's Show After 7 Years? Actor Decides To Move On In His Career-Report
'KumKum Bhagya' starring Shabir Ahluwalia and Sriti Jha in leads is one of the most popular shows running on television. Ekta Kapoor’s daily soap has managed to win the hearts of viewers owing to its interesting storyline and of course with Abhi-Pragya’s sizzling chemistry. However, both Shabir and Sriti have been missing from the show for over months now. While 'AbhiGya' fans have been eagerly waiting for them to come back, it is being reported that the actor has bid the show goodbye.

According to a report in Hindustan Times, Shabir, who has been the part of the show for 7 long years, has now quit it as he has decided to move ahead in his acting career.  Reportedly,  he has put down his papers after a mutual decision between the show maker and the actor.  A source close to the development was quoted saying, “Shabir and Ekta (Kapoor, producer of the daily soap) are friends and remain cordial. Everything was done without any hassle. However, the network doesn’t intend to officially talk about their exit.”



The reason behind Ahluwalia’s exit is yet to be known but it is being said that the “makers of 'KumKum Bhagya' are focussing on the newer generation of characters for a few weeks now.” The report added that Shabir Ahluwalia is in talks for a new show on another channel. The yet-to-be-titled series will reportedly be helmed by producer Yash Patnaik and is likely to go on floors from March-end. An insider told HT, “Shabbir is almost finalised. He hasn’t signed the dotted line but has given his verbal confirmation.”

For the unversed, KumKum Bhagya began in 2014 and both Shabir and Sriti have been part of the show ever since it aired. In the current track, they went missing after the accident sequence.
