Paras Kalnawat’s ascent to stardom commenced with his portrayal of Samar in the widely acclaimed series, Anupamaa. His association with the show since its inception established him as a household name. However, a sudden turn of events led to his departure when he opted to participate in the dance reality show, Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11, without prior notice to the makers of Anupamaa.
Speculation regarding discord between Paras and the Anupamaa team arose, prompting producer Rajan Shahi to address the matter publicly. Shahi expressed his fondness for Paras, considering him an integral part of the production house. Despite media reports suggesting tensions, Shahi revealed a different perspective, emphasizing a recent amicable exchange between them.
Regarding Paras Kalnawat’s departure, Shahi clarified the circumstances, citing a breach of contract due to Paras’s engagement with another show. Paras’s failure to inform Shahi before committing to Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11 resulted in contract termination. Shahi recalled a similar incident involving Hina Khan, highlighting the importance of transparency in such matters.
