Indian television’s multiple soap operas have many engrossed in predicting the future of characters, but they might be in for a shocker if they are ardent fans of Divyanka Tripathi and her show ‘Yeh Hai Mohabbatein’.
Multiple reports on the world wide web say that her character Ishita will be killed while she tries to save her on-screen daughter Pihu from getting kidnapped by goons.
While speaking to Mid-Day, Tripathi said: “I will be seen dying on the show. It's a great track, so anything for it.”
The report further said that the producer Exta Kapoor wants to introduce new cast members in the Star Plus show that was first aired in 2013.
But, an Indian Express report said that Sandiip Sikcand, the creative head of the show, refuted the claims and said,
It’s all rubbish. The show is about Ishita and Raman, and that’s how it will be. Nothing as such is happening; Divyanka is not going anywhere.
Others said that the actor might be pregnant and may opt for a maternity break, but a Times of India report said that a reliable source disclosed that the pregnancy news is false and added:
Yes, Ishita will be seen dying in the show but Divyanka has no plans of leaving. You know how it works on Indian TV, the characters are born again, Maybe viewers can expect a similar track. Also, the show can’t run without her and it is known to all.
Tripathi tied the knot with her ‘Yeh Hai Mohabbatein’ co-star Vivek Dahiya in July 2016.
