hello all
since this morning, we have been flooded with news that Barun Sobti, the actor playing Arnav Singh Raizada, in the popular play Iss Pyar Ko Kya Naam Doon, has handed in his notice and is quitting the show.
as you are well aware that IPKKND is a play of international fame and our fans come from 63 different countries, according to a survey conducted by India Forums, one of the largest fan network for the show
even though we fully appreciate the fact that actors need to broaden their horizons and try different avenues to showcase their talent, IPKKND is unique in the sense that it has bonded people of different cultures, religions, borders with a single thread - the beautiful love story of the two protagonists - Khushi and Arnav. while they are and will remain fictitious characters, the actors Sanaya Irani and Barun Sobti have breathed life into them. we, the fans, associate ASR with the intense caramel eyes of Barun and Khushi with the cheerful bubbly personna of Khushi.
it would be very difficult for us to:
- accept any other actor in the same role
- see khushi being paired with another character as the USP of the show is the ARSHI romance
since starplus has always given a lot of weightage to the opinion of its viewers, i, on behalf of the entire fandom, request you to intervene on our behalf and give us clear answers on the following:
- is barun sobti leaving the show?
- if the answer to the above is yes, it is our humble request to end the show on a high note, probably a honeymoon track and an epilogue of some kind with ARSHI enjoying parenthood rather than destroy the pure love that our khushi and arnav have shared over the past year and a half.
i would really appreciate a response from you in this regard
thanking you
Hena
