Sudhanshu Pandey, popular for playing the role of Vanraj Shah in Anupamaa, has decided to quit the show. The actor announced his decision during the Instagram live session and left all fans in shock. Sudhanshu Pandey also expressed gratitude towards his fans for all the love and support. He also apologised for his sudden decision.
NDTV mentioned, “Mai pichle chaar saal se roj pahuch raha hun apke ghar ek daily soap ke jariye, ek kirdar play kar raha hu jiske liye mujhe bahut sara pyar or narazgi mili, but wo narazgi bhi ek tarike se pyar hi raha hai. Agar aap naraz na hote mere character dekh kar to mujhe lagta mai sahi tarike se nibha nahi pa raha hoon. I want to tell all of you with a heavy heart that I am now not a part of Anupamaa show. Raksha Bandhan episode se mai show ka hissa nahi hoon, par itne din beet gaye the or meri audience mujhse naraz na ho ki ye bina bataye kaise chala gaya toh mujhe laga ye meri zimmedari hai ki mai ye baat bataun aap sab ko. I am not playing Vanraj Shah anymore in the show Anupamaa. I am thankful for all the love, respect and support. I apologise for taking this sudden decision.” He further said, “I will play various new characters, will not bore you in one role. Please keep supporting me in future.”
Recently reports were suggesting that Gaurav Khanna, who portrays Anuj, and Rupali Ganguly, who plays the titular character, are leaving the show. However, in a recent interview, Anupamaa producer Rajan Shahi addressed these rumours in a chat with HT.
Reacting to the rumours, Rajan Shahi said, “This is completely false. Both Gaurav and Rupali are very much part of the show and their characters are integral to the story.” He added, “I don’t know where do these rumours come from.”
A source close to the production told HT, “There is no truth to the reports. They have no reason to leave the show. This is fake news and someone’s imagination. Time and again, someone or the other keeps making up these stories about the show, but there is no truth to all this. They are both still a part of Anupamaa.”
For the upcoming episode, makers of the show have released a new promo on Instagram, giving fans a glimpse of the reunion between Anuj and Aadhya. The clip begins with Anuj praying in the temple on Janmashtami when Anupama calls out to him from behind and says, “I have brought you a gift for your birthday today,” and then she introduces him to Aadhya. Anuj gets emotional after seeing his daughter, and they hug each other. Meanwhile, Anupama leaves the two alone, and as she walks away, Aadhya calls out to her but Anupama faints.
It is worth mentioning here that the show is produced by Rajan Shahi and Deepa Shahi under the banner of Director’s Kut Productions. It stars Rupali Ganguly, Madalsa Sharma, and Gaurav Khanna in the lead roles.
