Now Shikha Singh Quits Kumkum Bhagya, Will Mishal Raheja Follow Suit?
Exodus of sorts happening in Ekta Kapoor’s Kumkum Bhagya, post the idea of a 20-year leap. After Leena Jumaani, it’s now Shikha Singh. Mishal Raheja however, is still on the edge
This morning, we ran a story around Kumkum Bhagya actress Leena Jumani quitting the show as the show is taking a 20-year leap and the actress refuses to age. Now just in, actress Shikha Singh has also big goodbye to the long-running show.
When we contacted her, she confirmed the same and said, “Yes. Post leap, I won't be a part of it. There was not much left for me in the story as they are changing the entire story line. So I thought better to opt out.” When we asked if the leap was required at this stage of the show, she replied, “See it’s the producer’s call. If you ask me even after 5 years, we have maintained to be in the top 3 shows. I am very, very certain they know what they are doing. And as far as the leap is concerned they must have thought it through. Aisa toh koi producer nahi karega ki koi galat move ho aur show band ho jaaye. And as an actor is concerned, everybody has to move on. We can't sit and regret that ‘shit, I will not be a part of the show.’ The show must go on with us or without us.”

Meanwhile, Mishal Raheja seems to be still sailing in two boats. There are reports of him following suit. When we contacted him, "I have no clue about this. The production house (Balaji Telefilms) hasn't informed me about what are they going to do with my character. They have asked me to hold on. So how can I take the decision? Let me get a clarity from them first, then maybe I will be in a position to answer your question."
When asked if he would be okay to play an elderly character, Mishal sort of reiterated, "See when you know your vacation is coming, only then you will decide na that where want to go. But if they have asked me to wait and haven't yet decided what they're going to with my character, how can I take the final call?"
