MUMBAI: There are a lot of rumors that Shakti Arora plays Ishaan, the male lead protagonist in the show, and will soon leave Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin. The existing cast of GHKPM, except Bhavika Sharma, is reportedly being asked to leave the program because the network and the show's makers believe that a new plot and cast of actors might increase the TRP. Additionally, there were rumors that Shakti Arora was sought to be replaced by Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga fame Abhishek Nigam and Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai fame Harshad Chopda. Indeed, a video doing the rounds on social media seems to be an audition video of Abhishek for the television program GHKPM. At last, Abhishek Nigam responds to his widely shared audition video with Bhavika Sharma.

The speculations that Abhishek Nigam will be showing up in Shakti Arora and Bhavika Sharma’s show are baseless as he will be featured in Pukaar - Dil Se Dil Tak, a television show that also stars Sayli Salunkhe and Anushka Merchande. He is going to play Sagar. It seems impossible that he will appear in another television program, particularly as the male lead protagonist, given the prominent role he now plays in another. In essence, the video featuring Abhishek and Bhavika acting out a scenario is an audition video that Abhishek gave when the producers first introduced Leap and were looking for a male lead for Bhavika Sharma.

This actor is the one who was going to play the role of Ishaan from the beginning before Shakti. (He was playing the role. It was an experimental performance with Bhavika.) they bring him back to the series? #GhumHaikisikeypyaarmeiin #ishvi #savi #ishaan pic.twitter.com/NFJGos3uvK

Although Abhishek Nigam was one of the top candidates, Shakti Arora ultimately bagged the role. In response to the video, Abhishek told the press that, while he did try out for Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin last year, the negotiations between him and the producers fell through. Additionally, he claims that while it is his responsibility as an actor to try out for good roles, the decision to choose is undoubtedly not in his control.
