Replacement is the buzz on Indian television. After a spate of recent replacements, the latest to hit the television industry is Sandeep Rajora being replaced in Star One's Hey…Yehi To Hai Woh.

"The track of the serial was not going anywhere. From comedy, the track suddenly changed into a thriller. It became absolutely chaotic," Sandeep says. "It was very repetitive. What I did in episode 5, I was doing the same in episode 95. All I did was cheating Raj," he adds.
When one wonders if Sandeep didn't know what he is getting into, Sandeep offers, "On Indian television scripts always come in the last minute. Initially, I was okay with playing a negative role on an experimental basis. I enjoyed doing it. But then, it became stagnant."

Sandeep was disheartened as things did not shape up the way it was promised. "Tracks change every two months. When I conveyed this to the production house, I was told my character will be projected better. I waited for it to happen. But eventually I gave up," says the visibly irritated Sandeep.
So who called quits? "It was mutual. Sanjay Wadhwan, producer of the show and I decided that it was time to part ways. It was best for me," he says.
Sandeep was not happy with his role in Hey… yehi to hai woh. He reminisces about his old days and says he misses Siddharth, the character he played in Kkusum. "I enjoyed playing the character of Siddharth. That role was real and gave me a chance to perform."
Sanjay offers, "there were no issues between us. Sandeep could give us dates in piece meal. Since he is one of the main characters, we wanted dates in bulk".
Sandeep is very positive about life. "Life is very busy with Kareena Kareena. I work 15 -20 shifts a month. But I am willing to do serials. I am waiting for the right things to happen," he says.
