TOI:Karan to quit Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai after 7 years?
Karan Mehra, popularly known as TV's Naitik, is quitting the seven-year-long show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai.
A source says, "Now that the show has taken a time leap, Karan feels there is not much scope for his character. Also, he has issues with his co-actor Hina Khan, who plays his wife. The two have great chemistry on screen but have had issues since a long time now".
However, both Karan and producer Rajan Shahi deny the buzz. Karan says, "This is just speculation and I don't want to comment on it. Every year they say that I am leaving, but I am still here. I am not leaving the show right now." Shahi adds, "An actor has to tell me. I have no information as of now. Every year there are rumours that Hina is quitting the show, that Karan is leaving or that the show is ending. So I have no comments on this."
