Lead pair leave ZEE TV’s ‘Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani’

ZEE TV’s popular show ‘Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani’ will witness some major changes after lead pair Siddhant Karnick and Drashti Dhami announced their exit.

Confirming the news to Hindustan Times, Dhami said she was not comfortable with the upcoming storyline, in which she would have had to turn mother. She said, ���It was a tough choice to make. I had to quit the show, as my character would change after the leap. I was asked to play a mother, and I am not comfortable doing so at the moment.”

The show, which has been running for nine months has been in troubled waters recently due to a dip in ratings. She said, ���Every show has a destiny, and every actor works hard on a show. When makers want to bring in a new twist to a story or change its direction, alterations have to be made.�۝

The actress, who will soon be celebrating her wedding anniversary soon, will be taking a break in Europe with husband Neerja Khemka. As part of their 20-day Europe holiday, the couple will be visiting Prague (Czech Republic), Budapest (Hungary), Berlin (Germany), Amsterdam (Netherlands) and Paris (France). Dhami told BizAsiaLive.com that she had originally planned to extend her break to UK but it did not materialise.
