I didn't expect Asha to be bumped off as she is one of the core characters of Naamkarann: Barkha Bisht
Naamkarann is about the character Avni, but also focuses on the trials and tribulations of her mother Asha. So when reports of the latter quitting the show broke the internet, fans were disheartened. Well, Barkha Bisht, who plays the role of Asha, is herself very upset with this development as she didn't expect her track to end that soon.
In an interview with a leading daily, the TV diva shared, "I didn't expect Asha to be bumped off, as she is one of the core characters of the show. The producers informed me the moment they finalised the track, and it doesn't seem to be an overnight decision. Every two weeks, we were trying something new to up the ratings."
She added, "I am practical and understand the pulse of the industry. I am sad that I am out of a show, which I have been part of since its inception. I think they decided to end my character because of its shock value. Had it been any other character, the level of shock would have been lesser."
"The story was always from Avni's perspective and hence, she was the protagonist. But that doesn't mean that I was any less important. A 10-year-old can't make me feel insecure. As far as not getting along with her is concerned, you don't connect with all your colleagues; it's just that I had a better equation with other people. Today's children are extremely professional and mature for their age because of the exposure they get. My love, affection and patience are only for my daughter," she signed off.
What do you think about this development?
