Ashnoor Kaur’s LOSS is Shivangi Joshi’s GAIN

MUMBAI: Star Plus’ Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai is the longest running show on television at the moment.

Actress Ashnoor Kaur, who played the younger Naira, is no longer a part of the show. However, did you know that the makers were keen on retaining her?

What do you think about these Showtees ?

Yes, you heard it right.

The makers wanted both Naksh and Naira (Rohan Mehra and Ashnoor Kaur) to continue as grown-ups, but Ashnoor’s parents were reluctant.

According to our sources, 'The makers wanted both Ashnoor and Rohan to continue in the show post the leap. The focus would have been on Naksh and Naira’s love lives. Ashnoor’s parents were reluctant as they didn’t want their daughter to romance on-screen at such a tender age.'

Moreover, they wanted her to focus on her studies as she is quite a bright student.

Accepting Ashnoor’s decision, the makers roped in Shivangi Joshi as Naira, while Rohan Mehra continued to play the grown-up Naksh.

Well, it seems like Ashnoor’s loss is Shivangi’s gain.
