Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Controversy: Shivangi Joshi-Karan Mehra On Shehzada Dhami Getting Fired

Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Controversy: Shehzada Dhami and Pratiksha Honmukhe's replacement in YRKKH became the talk of the town. Last month, the makers fired the duo from the hit serial, asking them to leave the set.

WHY WAS SHEHZADA DHAMI FIRED FROM YEH RISHTA KYA KEHLATA HAI?

Rajan Shahi, who produces Yeh Rishta, released a statement to confirm their departure. He terminated the contract of the two actors, accusing them of unprofessionalism. While the two celebs remained tight-lipped about the shocking development, the Anupamaa producer alleged that Shehzada misbehaved with the crew.

Accusing him of throwing tantrums on the sets, Rajan said that Shehzada's 'disregard for the work ethics was evident' since the day he started the shoot for YRKKH.

"Recent events have prompted Directors Kut Production to take a firm stance against unprofessional behavior displayed by two actors from the TV show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Shehzada Dhami, and Pratiksha Honmukhe. Shehzada Dhami's disregard for work ethics became evident from day one, as he consistently threw tantrums and mistreated the crew," Rajan Shahi said in his official statement as quoted as saying by BollywoodLife.

SHIVANGI JOSHI REACTS TO YEH RISHTA KYA KEHLATA HAI CONTROVERSY

Father-daughter on-screen duo Shivangi Joshi and Karan Mehra attended the Iftari celebrations on the sets of Yeh Rishta. They spoke with the journalists about visiting the set again and answered different questions.

Shivangi Joshi-Karan Mehra opened up on Shehzada Dhami Getting Fired From YRKKH. The two actors, while interacting with the media, shared their thoughts about Shehzada and Pratiksha and their replacement.

Interestingly, both of them chose to dodge the question and said that they cannot comment about someone else. Shivangi, who was seen as Naira in YRKKH, told Tellychakkar, "Bina puri baat jaane upse comment karna thik nahi hoga." The Barsatein actress didn't speak much, maintaining that she cannot react to the YRKKH controversy without knowing about it.

Karan Mehra aka Naitaik said that whatever happened was 'unfortunate'. However, he refused to speak about the controversy, adding that nobody complained about his work ethics.

"Nobody complains for us. Yah pe jo bhi hua, unfortunate hua. But sir to sir hai," he told Times Now.
