Meet The NEW Naitik Of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai

That Vishal Singh -- of the Dekh Bhai Dekh and Parrvarish fame -- will play the new Naitik in TV show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai has been known for some time.

The actor finally began shooting for the show yesterday.  Here are some pics from the sets:












Naitik’s role was originally played by Karan Mehra. In fact, he almost became synonymous with the character after portraying it for eight-and-a-half years. However, he quit the show amicably, on health grounds.

Initially, the makers justified Karan’s absence saying Naitik had gone abroad on a business trip. However, plans were afoot to reintroduce him into the show. Killing Naitik’s character, we hear, was always out of question because of his popularity.


The makers also ruled out using the tried and tested ‘plastic surgery’ track to introduce the new Naitik.  Vishal will simply be shown as the character, that’s all. No explanations, no justifications.

So, the track will have Naitik returning from the business trip. Of course, there will be a lot of melodrama when wife Akshara (Hina Khan) and daughter Naira (Shivangi Joshi) receive him.

Vishal looked quite upbeat about playing Naitik. He said, “I have been introduced during the Ganpati festival. The whole sequence of my entry with a festive feel makes it even more special. I am glad that i am doing this role.”
