Although Saath Phere is once again back on top, sources say that the lead actress Rajshri Thakur may soon find herself ousted from the show. Many say it the actress' behaviour and tantrums that are forcing the producers to take the big step.
It is being suggested that Rajshri doesn't give her 100% to the show and her contribution has decreased to quite a large extent because of her numerous tantrums on the sets.
"For a long time now Rajshri has been throwing tantrums," informs a source, "She doesn't come on time and she doesn't even give her shots properly. We shoot some other scenes where we don't need her and then later when she comes, we shoot with her… that's how it works," he says.
One of the main concerns of the producers is that Saloni is the main character and therefore it would be impossible to kill her on the show. And so the only other alternative is to find a replacement. But will that replacement work with the audiences?
"Saloni can't die as she is the main protagonist. As far as her replacement is concerned… that is something the channel has to decide. But something definitely has to be done!," says the source.
Last month, there were rumours that Rajshri will soon be sacked from the show. In fact when she recently went on leave, her shots were filmed with a dummy.
