After Drashti Dhami, Abhinav Shukla exits Silsila Badalte Rishton Ka

On Wednesday, we informed our readers that renowned television actress Drashti Dhami had announced her exit from her popular Colors’ show Silsila Badalte Rishton Ka, which starred her in the lead role of Nandini, a docile and malleable girl who falls in love with the husband (Shakti Arora) of her childhood friend Mauli (Aditi Sharma).

The latest we hear that actor Abhinav Shukla, who plays Nandini’s abusive husband Rajdeep, is also bidding goodbye to the hit show. However, like Drashti Dhami, Shukla is not leaving the series because it is set for a time leap before the makers bring down the curtain on it; he is exiting the show because his track is over now.


Talking to an entertainment portal, Abhinav Shukla confirmed his exit from the show. The actor said, “Yes, I have been informed that Rajdeep’s character is over. I was apprehensive while signing up for such a horrible character, but I guess if you are relatable and honest with your approach towards your character, people will love you irrespective of how bad it is. It’s ironic people and professionals liked my character and loved, especially the dialogues. “DEAR MRS” will be remembered for long. Cheers to the team and my co-actors for such a lovely experience and like I say ‘Don’t be like Rajdeep’.”

The audience is surely going to miss his and Drashti’s presence on the show.
