As per sources Mrunal Jain who rose to fame with Ekta Kapoor's popular show Bandini is tipped to hop into Manav's character in Pavitra Rishta. It has been reported that Sushant is expected to make an exit by this weekend or early next week. Mrunal has been approached to step into his shoes and he is expected to make an entry with a romantic sequence.
Source close to the show says, "Initially, the replacement was to be done after a leap of 18 years but the idea was dropped. Furthermore, this may not be final as Mrunal is in two minds since he has some other projects in hand".
