While Ram Kapoor was Rakhi Sawant ke bade bhaiya in Rakhi Ka Swayamvar, actor Hiten Tejwani stood up as Ratan's big bro in Ratan Ka Rishta. And while Ram stayed on till her sister got engaged, the other brother disappeared mid way. Yes!

"The production team was not happy with the way Hiten was hosting the show. He lacked the warmth that Ram Kapoor had during the time of Rakhi. Channel tried to convey this to Hiten but it seemed it had no affect on him. Later, on a trial basis, Ram was roped in for an episode and surprisingly the TRPs rose quite high. Also, there was an instant connect between Ratan and Ram. He was actually like her big bro. We had to bid good bye to Hiten but we thought he will at least participate in the ceremonies," says a source, adding, "But channel never asked Hiten to not host the show and he himself backed out."

However, telling us the other side of the story, Hiten says, "After the Jaipur stint was over, I was told that the channel will call me if I was required to host but later I saw Ram hosting the show. I didn't go for Ratan's D-day because I wasn't invited. Why I was not called, I don't really know."

TV stars and their pet 'projects'

The show, which comes on Sony, is currently in its highpoint, where the protagonists - Ram and Priya - essayed by actors Ram Kapoor and Sakshi - get engaged.

Sakshi was so ill that she had to visit the doctor. But the episode where the two exchange rings had to be aired Wednesday night at any cost as the buzz had already spread.

"Sakshi's condition was quite severe. Initially, the team was planning to postpone the scenes. But since word had already spread about the engagement on the July 6 episode, there wasn't much one could do. Sakshi had a lot of dialogues, but director Ravindra Gautam played it smart and changed the screenplay by cutting her dialogues to the bare minimum," a source from the channel told us.

Sakshi's condition is a better now, but she hasn't recovered completely.

Directed by Ravindra Gautam, the show is about a mismatched couple - a 40-year-old businessman and a 33-year-old middle class girl - and how they find love after marriage. The story is still building up to the wedding, but the show has found a loyal following among viewers.

After a long time, Sakshi seems to be coming out of the image of Parvati Agarwal - her character in 'Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki', which made her famous.
