Ankit Gupta, Priyanka Choudhary and Isha Malviya to quit after Udaariyaan post 15-year leap

TV show Udaariyaan is taking a 15-year leap and lead actors Ankit Gupta, Priyanka Choudhary and Isha Malviya will no longer be part of the show. The leap should take place in another two weeks. Bombay Times has exclusively learnt that the three actors have decided to quit the show.

Udaariyaan revolves around two sisters and their love for one one guy. The show has been on air for almost a year-and-a-half and is now gearing up for a change with a fresh new cast.

A source close to the production house, said, "Ankit, Priyanka and Isha have quit the show because they do not want to play parents to grown-ups. Also, the actors' characters have done their bit in the last one- and-a-half years and since the lead actors did not want to play parents, now it is time for the story to progress with a fresh new cast."

Udaariyaan started in March 2021 and is produced by actors Ravi Dubey and Sargun Mehta. The show is based in Punjab and it had recently also taken a short leap, where child actors Kevina Tak and Kishtu K were introduced in the show. In an earlier interview to BT, Sargun Mehta had shared how Udaariyaan is an interesting story and that's why it connects with masses. She had said, "Udaariyaan revolves around two women and their love for a man and triangle love story always connects with masses. Also, I have made it a point to not make the show over dramatic and drag for no reason."
