Shruti says, "It's difficult. The
other actors are pulling my leg saying in the
previous show I read out from the
teleprompter, while they had to mug up
their lines. Now, I am on the other side of
the fence, along with them." Incidentally, Nia
Sharma was first offered the project, but the
deal fell through. Reveals a source
associated with the show, "The channel
which airs Nia's daily soap didn't want her
to participate in a show on a rival channel."
Not wanting to blame anyone, Nia confirms,
"Yes, it's true. I feel it could have been a
good opportunity for me to explore a new
genre."
Ask Shruti about replacing Nia in the show
and she replies, "I am aware that they were
in talks with another actress, but I didn't ask
them for details. I would say that it was
meant to come to me and hence, it found
me. I can only thank the other actress."
