Nikkhil opts out of Vaidehi

Nikkhil Arya will no longer be part of Sony's weekly, Vaidehi. The actor who has only one show in his kitty, (Balaji's Kesar) has decided to walk out because of the changes in the script that were made after the show went on air.

"It was a mutual decision taken by Aroonaji and me. There were some last minute changes in the script which were not convincing enough, so I left. I had no other option!" clarifies Nikkhil.

Producer Aroona Irani denies the actor was being finalised for Neel's role. "Talks were on, but nothing was penned down. We liked him as he was perfect for the role, but things didn't work out later," says the producer. She continues, "As of now we haven't chosen anyone. We are still searching for the right face."

Well, as of now Nikkhil is concentrating on Kesar, which will soon go off air. The buzz is that he was offered a Gen Next character in Star Plus' flagship show, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, but he turned it down.

We hope to see the actor playing varied characters...and with a character like Vivan (Rabba...) already behind him, others surely will come his way!
