Scoop: Have we seen the last of Mita 'Jethi Maa' Vashisht in Zee TV's Kaala Teeka?

Seasoned actress Mita Vashisht has excelled in the role of Jethi Maa in Zee TV’s Kaala Teeka (DJ’s – A Creative Unit). Her antagonist role has been highly appreciated by the audience and has grown popular with time.

However, there has been a new development in the story track, with the character of Jethi Maa being sidelined with the introduction of few new characters.

Well, the fact of the story is that the intense performer Mita Vashisht has been missing on the show for a while now!! And her co-actors on the set believe that the actress is recovering from a viral attack, and will be back after her small break...

But we at Tellychakkar.com have got to know that there is more than what meets the eye here...

Our credible source tells us, “It is true that Mita got sick and was barely able to take charge and shoot. However, it is also a fact that the actress did not want to shoot for longer hours, and cited reasons of bad health for the same. With the increasing pressure of delivering episodes, the team finally gave in , and granted a break to Mita. However, they actually went ahead to work on a new story line that will bring in a new negative lead in the show. Post this, the entry of Mona Ambegaonkar has happened.”

However, another source did mention that, “The entry of another powerful negative character was always in the pipeline. But with this development related to Mita happening, the entry of the other character was hastened and brought into effect immediately.”

Yet another source further stated, “Mita was very sick, and had gotten weak owing to the hectic shoot schedule. She even lost her voice while shooting, and this happened due to her weakness. After requesting the team to grant her a good enough leave so that she can gather her health back, the actress finally did get a break of nearly 10 days.”

Well, to tell you more, Mita even today remains clueless about the new tracks and characters that have been opened up. However, even after the 10 days period, Mita has not got her next call time!! She in fact remains clueless of her future in the show.

Equipped with so many details, we did approach Mita for a frank conversation on the issue and she said, “Well, I have slogged my heart out for more than 50 days without any break. I have shot even as I battled illness and weakness, but never complained. But beyond a point, your body needs to rest. Ultimately, when I got a viral attack, I requested them to grant me a leave, and succeeded in getting a 10 days break.”

Adding on, the actress clarified, “Well, the 10 days break is over long back. But I am yet to receive any call from the production. I watch less of TV, so was not aware of the new developments in the show till the time you told me of it.”

And when questioned about the buzz of her future in the show being bleak, Mita averred, “I am again clueless of it. If they have taken certain decisions to end my character, they should have got back to me and talked to me about it. I have seen people discussing over the table, and I am used to this sort of functioning. Anyway, if such a decision has been taken, I am not crying over it. Guess this is mankind’s way of saying there is always a new beginning. However, if you look at the other side of it, the team had to inform me about the decisions they take. Being an actor, I keep getting lot of offers, and it is important for me to know whether my commitment to the show stays or not.”

We tried calling the channel spokesperson for their take on the whole issue, and to know whether Mita’s character will come back or not, but we received no revert from them.

We dropped a text message to Producer Deeya Singh, asking her about the future of Mita’s character, but got not reply.

However, a source connected to the show does maintain that Mita’s character has not been terminated. “The future of Jethi Maa depends on how the track ahead develops,” claimed the person.

Amidst all this, we got to know of another inside information that Mona Ambegaonkar was actually the first choice for the role of Jethi Maa when the show began!!

Well, can we or should we assume that Mona was always destined to get into the show?

Does all this mean that we have seen the last of Mita Vashisht in Kaala Teeka?

Let time decide this!!
