Aashay Mishra To Replace Rohit Chandel In Star Plus' Sairaab?

Television actor Rohit Chandel, known for his roles in Pandya Store and Kashibai Bajirao Ballal, has been in the news following his recent arrest. The Mumbai Police arrested the actor for allegedly stalking, repeatedly calling, harassing and assaulting a 16-year-old girl. Following the complaint, a case was registered against him under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.

The legal case has also affected his professional commitments. Rohit was reportedly shooting for Star Plus' upcoming show Sairaab when the controversy came to light. As the matter continues, reports suggest that the makers have started looking for a replacement to avoid delays in the production schedule.

According to reports, the production team plans to move forward with a new lead actor to ensure the show's shooting is not affected. While there has been no official announcement from the makers or the channel, the latest buzz suggests that the search for Rohit's replacement has already reached its final stage.

Reports further claim that actor Aashay Mishra has been finalised to play the lead role in Sairaab. Although the makers have not confirmed the development, his name has emerged as the latest addition to the ongoing casting reports.

Rohit Chandel was recently denied bail by the POCSO Court after a hearing held on July 17. The case against the actor is currently under legal process, and no further official statement has been issued regarding his return to work.

Following the controversy, reports about his replacement started circulating in the television industry. Several actors' names were linked to the role over the past few days. However, the latest reports now suggest that Aashay Mishra has been chosen to take over the lead role in the show.

Aashay Mishra was last seen in Colors TV's Durga – Atoot Prem Kahani, where he played the lead role of Dr. Anurag Singh Rathore opposite Pranali Rathod. His performance in the show made him a familiar face among television audiences, and if the reports are true, Sairaab will mark his next television project.

At present, neither Star Plus nor the production house has officially confirmed Aashay Mishra's casting. The channel has also not released any statement regarding Rohit Chandel's reported exit from the show.

The reports have surfaced at a time when the makers are said to be focusing on keeping the production on schedule. Replacing a lead actor during the early stages of a project is often considered a practical decision to avoid disruptions in shooting.

As of now, the reported casting remains based on industry sources, and viewers will have to wait for an official confirmation from the makers or the channel.

With Rohit Chandel's legal matter continuing and reports suggesting a major casting change, Sairaab has become a topic of discussion even before its launch. If Aashay Mishra has indeed been finalised, it will mark a new beginning for the actor with another lead role on television.

Until an official announcement is made, the reported replacement remains unconfirmed. Fans will have to wait for the makers to reveal the final casting details and share further updates about the upcoming Star Plus show.
