Soumya Tandon from Delhi bagged the role after Nauheed Cyrusi walked out of 'Aisa Des Hai Mera'.
Lekh Tandon's 'Aisa Des Hai Mera' found itself in a tight spot when actor Nauheed Cyrusi walked out of the show a couple of days before the shoot. "I was terribly upset about Nauheed's last minute departure from the show. We were scheduled to go on air from April 24 and didn't know what to do," reveals Goswami. "On a sudden impulse I started browsing through some pictures left by aspirants and the first picture I chanced upon was that of Soumya Tandon from Delhi," continues Goswami.
Goswami called up Soumya in Delhi and asked her whether she was ready to be a part of 'Aisa Des…'. Recalling the call, Soumya gushes ecstatically, "I could not believe that Manish Goswami was talking to me. I agreed instantly and boarded the next available flight."
Pawan Shankar of 'Siddhant' fame plays the romantic lead opposite her.
