MUMBAI : Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai is a romantic drama television series that premiered in 2009 and ranked as the longest-running Indian television soap opera, completing 3000 episodes in 2019. It is produced by Rajan Shahi under the banner of Director's Kut Productions, it formerly starred Hina Khan, Karan Mehra, Shivangi Joshi, and Mohsin Khan. Since October 2021, it stars Pranali Rathod and Harshad Chopda as the third generation.
The show has been doing exceptionally well ever since it began. The ratings are still very high and it is amongst the top five shows. The chemistry between Abhimanyu and Akshara is immensely loved and the track keeps the audience hooked.
The show took a leap last year and a new cast was introduced with a few old faces still there.
While Pranali Rathod plays the lead role of Akshara, Navika Kotia joined the cast of the show as Maya Khera. The two had a difficult bond on-screen as for Maya, Akshara was asked to live incognito and sing secretly in lieu of Abhimanyu's surgery by Kunal. Later, Akshara lost her identity as everyone knew Maya’s voice and not the fact that it was Akshara. Recently, everything got sorted for Akshara when she returned and stopped singing for Maya.
The two share a great rapport off-screen and are really good friends. The two were seen hanging out together. Pranali shared a happy glimpse saying, “Meri cutie patootiee”. Navika shared this while saying, “Best date partner”. Navika posted another glimpse of Pranali and she is all smiles in it.

Navika, in a recent Q/A session with her social media followers, was asked about Pranali, and said “We genuinely became friends very quickly and used to do a lot of masti on set! She's a sweetheart and one of the best co-stars I've ever had. A very hardworking girl who deserves all the love you guys give her and more”.
The two seem very close and even though they had a difficult bond on-screen, are great friends for sure off-screen.
