Inspired from author Anuja Chauhan's book, the show had originally chosen Sukirti to play the lead, last August. Just when she geared up for the role, she got selected to participate in the last season of 'Bigg Boss'. The makers were left with no other option, but to look for another lead actor.
Meanwhile, Sukirti got eliminated from 'Bigg Boss' and was again roped in to play the lead character, resulting in Sreejita's exit from the show. Sukirti said, "I relate to the character very well, especially since the story is based in Delhi. I am very happy that the makers decided to take me back."
Sreejita admits being disappointed over the turn of events. "It was upsetting as they announced their decision about replacing me after I shot 10 days for them. Also, I was a part of 'Uttaran' and I quit that show before it got over, so that I could accommodate the dates. I gave up 'Uttaran' that I was part of for three years, for them. But anyways, whatever happens, happens for the best."
