Stars are not made overnight, and this is a proven fact!! One becomes a star owing to the hard work put in. However, the real challenge arises the moment one becomes a star!!
We are saying so, because this is the phase wherein one needs to realize the importance of staying grounded and being respectful towards work. This is the time when one needs to be more accepting, and be guiding forces to people around.
ALAS!! Our TV industry has seen many actors miss this big lesson, the moment they taste success and gain popularity.
It is believed that the latest victim to this hazardous attitude happens to be the extremely popular actor of TV, Hina Khan.
Yes, we are talking about our very own Akshara of Star Plus’ popular show, Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai produced by Director’s Kut.
Rumour mills have been abuzz about Hina’s attitude problems, insecurity when it comes to her co-actors, and above all developing a feeling that she’s above everything, even if it is the show which has been running well for 8 years now.
If sources are to be believed, Hina is the ‘new’ tantrum queen in the industry.
A credible source tells us, “Hina has been visibly unhappy about the fact that the younger generation actors in the show have made a mark for themselves. From the time the love track of the youngsters has been in focus, Hina has directed all in the team to get the screenplays and tracks approved from her. Even if she is late to shoot, she has all the time to go through the screenplay of the entire cast and make effective changes, wherever she feels like."
We also hear that Hina actually took a deliberate time-off from shoot recently, by coming up with a kidney stone problem and stayed away from shoot for the longest time possible (nearly 20 days).
Our source reiterates that, “Hina did this only to prove a point to the channel and production that she ‘rules’ the show and ratings even now. Even now, if there are lot many filler tracks being used in the show, it is only because of Hina’s conspicuous absence from shoot.”
It is believed that even when Hina is on shoot, she hardly stays for long hours on the set. “Her breaks are in fact longer than the time spent before the camera. This puts all the other actors and unit members to grave concern,” states our khabroo.
Coming to the story line, Hina dictates the flow of story, is what we hear. And when the channel and production house had planned to open the huge revelation of the love triangle between Naira (Shivangi Joshi), Karthik (Mohsin Khan) and Gayu (Kanchi Singh) in their recently shot Switzerland track, Hina apparently put her foot down, and got the track altered.
“The coming track that will be aired as part of the Switzerland drama will only have Akshara as the central focus. The manner in which Akshara will bring back Naitik (Vishal Singh) will be the crux of the drama shot out there,” reveals another source.
Hina has apparently never heeded to the time and disciplinary orders on sets. “Hina has always decided when she will pack up and go home. She takes leave whenever she wants to, and if there is an important track coming, she hardly adjusts to the schedule. She believes she does a favour to the production house by reporting on time. And when she leaves the set, she literally becomes untraceable.”
And for the biggie, it is believed that Hina never had a cordial rapport with Karan Mehra, the original Naitik. Our source confides in us, “Karan had been gulping in a lot of abuses and humiliations at the hands of Hina for seven years. Very recently, Hina abused him openly on the set, followed by which she told the channel and production house that she will move out of the show if Karan Mehra remained a part of Yeh Rishta. This actually lay the stepping stone to Karan’s exit from the show. After being silent for all the years, Karan finally decided to take no more of Hina’s tantrums, and moved out of the show gracefully.”
Well, it’s known to all by now that Hina had refused to become a mother-in-law, because of which her onscreen son Naksh (Rohan Mehra) still remains a bachelor.
Again, when Karan quit the show, she did not want to play a widow or even entertain a new character as Akshara’s life partner. Also, it is believed that Hina preferred to have a rookie or a semi-known actor opposite her as the new Naitik.
However, the channel and production put their foot down and brought in the popular Vishal Singh to play Naitik.
Considering the fact that Hina Khan was apparently ‘rejected’ by the channel when the casting for Yeh Rishta was happening 8 years back, the lady has managed to gather a lot of excess baggage. Our source explains, “While the channel did not want to rope in Hina, it was Producer Rajan Shahi who stood by the newcomer and took complete onus of grooming the simple and naive Delhi-bred Hina to become a successful actor. It is indeed sad when a so-called successful actor forgets the root cause of all popularity, and loses her grounded nature.”
We tried our level best to get in touch with Hina, (who has apparently returned from her Switzerland trip five days back, but has reported to shoot only once), but failed to reach out to her.
We also tried getting in touch with Producer Rajan Shahi but did not reach out to him.
We dropped a text message to the channel spokesperson, but did not get any revert till the time of filing the story.
Oh well, this really seems to be a sad state of affairs for the team of Yeh Rishta. Let’s hope things fall in place, as the show is indeed bigger than anyone!!
