We talked to Daljit Kaur who said, "Yes, I was supposed to play one of the leads in the Imagine show. But when I had a detailed talk with the Producer, I got to know that this was not the character with which I would like to make a comeback. With due regards to the show, I would like to say that the concept of the show is very powerful and great, and I plan to be an ardent viewers of the show. However, on the personal front, I always wanted to get back with a role that I will enjoy playing. But this was not the one I was looking for, hence I decided to opt out. The Producer was very sweet, and he understood my priorities. My fans need to wait a bit longer to see me again (smiles)".
