Anjali Abrol on her split with Kapil Nirmal

Anjali Abrol better known as  Rani of Star Plus' Raja Ki Ayegi Baraat has returned to television with  Sony TV's lame duck show, Chhajje Chhajje Ka Pyar. She is playing the role of Dimpy, Ginny's (Shambhavi Sharma) sister with whom Dhruv (Manish Tulsiyani) is forced to marry. Anjali was involved with her Raja Ki Ayegi Baraat  co- star Kapil  Nirmal and they even took part in Nach Baliye 4. But the latest is that they have unfortunately parted ways.

At first she was hesitant to talk about the break up, but later opened up and said, " I guess our relationship had passed it's time. We were not destined to be together. Once the above show ended, our interactions and meetings started to reduce and distances began to creep up."

Although Anjali claimed that she and Kapil are still friends, the hurt could be sensed in her voice.  Luckily this breakup has not destroyed Anjali's faith in relationships, this Jammu girl says,  "I will surely  want to get married one day with a guy of my parent's choice."

When we spoke about the same to Kapil, he refused to accept that they were in a relationship in the first place, "We were and are just good friends and you can interpret it in any way you want."

On being specifically asked if he and she were in a romantic relationship, he refused to comment.

Coming to  Chhajje Chhajje , Anjali does not think that she will find it tough to enter the shoes of  Neha Janpandit (she was first playing  Dimpy) "Its  only been 2 weeks  and people are beginning to call me by my character's name."

On the 10 month gap between Raja Ki Ayegi  and  Chhajje Chhajje  she said "I had a blast with my family.  We did a lot of travelling."
