Shakti to quit Kundali Bhagya post the 20-yr leap

Actor Shakti Arora's journey in Kundali Bhagya is over! The actor, who was roped in to play the new lead in June 2022 after Dheeraj Dhoopar quit the show, will not be a part of the show after the first week of March. Apparently, the show is headed for a 20-year leap and the lead actors will play parents to grown-ups. Shakti did not want to play father, so he has decided to move on.


A source said, "The show is headed for a 20-year leap. Shraddha Arya and Shakti Arora will have to play parents to grown-ups and while Shraddha had no qualms playing the part, Shakti did not want to do it."

Shakti's journey on the show is getting over in just eight months. The source added, "Shakti would have continued if there was no leap. But mentally he is not ready to play father on TV to an adult. The leap will take place in the first week of March."

Earlier too, Shakti had quit Silsila Badalte Rishton Ka and Meri Aashiqui Tum Se Hi when the shows had taken a leap and required the actors to play parents.

Shakti could not be reached. But in an earlier interview with BT, he had said, "I love doing diverse roles and I am choosy about them. I would love to do a web show or film or TV show, but the role has to be interesting and challenge me as an actor." Shakti has been part of interesting shows like Silsila Badalte Rishton Ka, Pavitra Rishta and even did reality shows like Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa and Nach Baliye.
