It is barely a week since the sequel to 'Diya Aur Baati Hum', Star Plus' 'Tu Sooraj Main Saanjh Piyaji' went on-air. The show has managed to impress the viewers with a fresh breath of air as the sequel focuses on the storyline of Sooraj (Anas Rashid) and Sandhya's (Deepika Singh) daughter, Kanak Rathi (Rhea Sharma).

While the ratings of the show are yet to come, rumors and controversies have already started to engulf the actors on the show.

There were recent reports about actress Rhea Sharma aka Kanak and Mayank Arora aka Ved Rathi dating each other and this was sparked by sources who spoke about their closeness on the sets.

We got in a conversation with actress, Rhea who cleared the air, "To be honest, I have no idea where do these rumors actually come from. I am completely focused on work and I am working even harder towards it. The show has recently launched and my job is to keep getting better at it."

She added, "Mayank is like an elder brother to me and a senior actor from whom I

learn from and get inspired. I gel well with everyone on sets just like I do with him. I want to keep working hard and not let such rumors affect me."

We hope the actress' stand is out and clear and shuts all the rumors once and for all.
