If there is one actor, who, in spite of her serial not being talked about, has always been in the news; then it's Chhavi Mittal of Tumhari Disha fame. Even though she has not been able to move the audiences with her emotions, she's always been successful in shaking up the tabloids with her constant controversies.

First it was her regular habit of walking out of the sets that provided masala to readers. Then came her outrage on trivial issues like — "Why was Ashish (her co-actor) invited for functions and not me?" and "I am a married woman and he (Ashish) can not touch me in scenes" etc.

But the latest news is that she has decided to quit her only on-air serial Tumhari Disha since the soap is taking a time leap and Ms Mittal is not ready for the whitener in her hair yet.

"I am so young. How can anyone even think of asking me to play a mother to grown-up children of my age?" exclaims Chhavi when asked about her opinion on the time jump. She further added that she could think of playing a mother after five-six years, but definitely not now.

A co-actor, who doesn't want to be quoted, said that Chhavi is just doing a face-saving act by saying she is not ready for the time leap. Actually, fed up with her constant weight-throwing attitude, the makers had already decided to go ahead without her. But when she came to know about it, she is saying it was her decision to walk out.

When contacted, producer Rupali Guha declined to comment on 'who decided to quit first?', but confirmed the news of the time-leap saying they are already in the process of casting for the next generation

But what about Chhavi's character Disha? Are you killing her or getting her replaced? "Nothing has been decided as yet, but we are in the process of finalising things. We will let you know the moment we take a call on this," was all she had to say.

Taking the drama further, in an attempt to mend her already tarnished image, Chhavi has now decided to call for a press conference and clarify that she doesn't have any problem with her co-actors and the producers.

Now whether she would be able to convince people that she is not a trouble maker is a separate story, we are very sure that she has learnt the trick of the trade that is, "You have to be seen in order to be sold."

thanks Monika

press conference, that I gotta see 😉 😆
if she is saying she has no problems with her co-stars & producer, then why is this press people making it a big issue 😕
so its confirmed are we gettign a new disha or not, cause I don't want a new disha, or are they gonna kill disha's role in the show 😕

so much confusion is going on now. I really Like Chavvi controversies or not, thats what got me hooked to the show in the Beginning, Ashish was the second reason 😃 😉 😆

The news has been very disappointing for me....I dont want a big time leap....dont want a new Disha...regardless of TD not doing so well in terms of ratings ,it is my favourite show and will never be the same again without her.
But this may do some good to me in terms of overcoming TD madness.

I am not happy with the 20 year old leap ...but I am glad Rupu is replacing Disha ...I do not want Disha's character to be killed ...but played by a more accomplished and professional actress..

Chavi should have been kicked out long back ...when she started creating trouble...unit memebers would have been spared from her tantrums....anyway ...there is no life in her portrayal of Disha anymore...at least not consistently.

Madam has let success go to her head...she thinks she made Disha ......and the show ran for her...the moment that bubble burst...she started creating trouble.....now she is calling press conference to say she does not have problems?...what is the use....I guess...no producer is willing to cast her now...so as the article says she is doing a face-saving act....trying to get the maximum publicity out of her image as Disha before she becomes out of sight...out of mind.

I am totally disgusted by her behaviour...and I am happy I do not have to see her anymore ...

but I do wish ..Rupu had taken a small leap ...and not made DK old...please

Rupu...do not want a grey haired DK...and get his goatee back.

I have loved this show....do not know Ashish Nayyar,do not know Chaavi....have loved the serial for what it is and not for the stars...I love DK and Disha and Ashish Nayyar and Chavvi made the characters real for me....It is DK and Disha given AN and Chavvi's face that I adore....so any replacement is certainly not acceptable to me...think should give up TD with the last episode of the two of them together....I dont want a leap anyhow.

Thanks!!
Hey I wonder who this unmentioned Co star is?
Well it seems like that Rupu is going ahead with the 20 year Leap without Chavi.
And why is Chavi asking for a Press Conference just to cover up the tantrums shes created its not going to work for her shes already in everyones bad books.

Hey do u guyz think that now that Rupu is likely to get a new Disha Chavi is regretting about her decision????

Well, Chavi does not have any other shows and Madam might be regretting that her tantrums have cost her lead role in TD....I feel the press conference is to try and present a better front to the rest of the industry so that other producers consider her.

In case she is regretting her decision then instead of calling press conference she should rather cooperate with td team and make up for the troubles she has created for them.
