Pavitra Rishta gets their Ovi Deshmukh and Pooni Karanjakar...

While Tellybuzz had earlier reported about the final locked-in cast of Pavitra Rishta, it seems as if there have been some last minute changes.

Latest reports suggest that Pooja Bannerjee of the MTV Roadies fame, was finalized to play the character of one of Archana's (Ankita Lokhande) daughter, but was replaced at the end moment by a newbie. Whereas the character of Pooni, Vinod-Manjusha's daughter will be essayed by Jia Mustafa, last seen in Imagine TV's Bandini.

Sources suggest that," Jia Mustak will now be seen as Pooni Karanjkar post leap and Pooja Bannerjee was finalized but at the last moment, Ekta Kapoor replaced her with a new face, Shruti Kanwar, as she felt Shruti was more suited for the role of Ovi Deshmukh."

It is also believed that the lead role of Archana and Manav's adopted daughter, who will be a doctor by profession, is yet to be cast.

All our efforts to reach Jia and Shruti were in vain!

In the light of these eleventh-hour alterations, all we can hope is that the show lives upto its consistent ratings.

Seriouosly? I really think it's good how they are trying to save the show and make new tracks and have new characters but as nycsweetie truthfully said the new cast and story would send away the original essence of Pavitra Rishta.

The new track sounds interesting but like a new show to me.So idk but I think Pavitra Rishta should end...

I'm really sorry to Say because I know there are many fans of PR who will be hurt by what I say but this is just my opinion.Arman is not the same without Sushita (although I really appreciate your work Hiten) and leap and change is not right.It won't be THE PAVITRA RISHTA anymore...

Ending Pavitra Rishta is gonna be like euthanising a dog. Although you grew attatched to it and don't want to let go you have to because that is what would be best for it.

Of course this is just my view...Sorry if I hurt anyone by posting this comment.
Anyway...If they decide not to end the show (which I think they won't) Good luck to the team and Ankita
