Leaving a show because a character is butchered is very wise, not unprofessional. An actor does not just stand there and recite someone's lines unless they have a very bad director who discourages any input or feel from the actors. Actors make their character, live and breathe it, mould it. They become that character in front of the cameras. If they feel that character is being made to deviate from its story and making them look shabby in the process then what can they do but leave in order not to reduce and insult their acting ability? They have to take a stand and make a statement even if it hurts them to do so.
The only thing I don't like is if they leave because they want to do other things as well at the same time, which splits their attention and brings everything down. I don't know about Indian TV but in the UK actors sign a contract to work on a particular programme for a certain length of time and they are held to being faithful to it. I have seen loads of actors leaving Indian shows as they seem to have no allegiance to it, just go for something more interesting or more money, which seriously breaks the continuity of the story for both viewers and the fellow actors. This does not happen in the UK much nor I suspect in other countries. Investment in what you are doing is very important.
But if they feel they or their character are not being treated well or fairly, one cannot blame them for leaving even if it spoils that show for us viewers.
Adi and Imlie made a superb emotional Jodi. Aryan is not a patch on Adi and far too controlling and aggressive both in speech and actions. Even Imlie/Sumbul looks very uncomfortable around him. I am sure the actor is nice, but his character is dreadful and is ruining what was lovely and unusual romantic story and it appears to be entirely due to the maker's folly.😒
Sorry What?! What do you mean by IMLIE/SUMBUL?
Imlie is a fictional character and she can be uncomfortable around the fictional character ASR, but Sumbul? How is she suppose to feel uncomfortable near ASR? Please be careful with the choice of words bcoz this sentence sounds like you are trying to say Sumbul is uncomfortable near Fahmaan!
And yes, leaving a show mid way is anyway considered unprofessional. And I agree with what you said; leaving a show, a responsibility for better opportunity is really sad, but personal growth is also a matter here, so can't blame the actors.
