Baseer Ali on his exit from Kundali Bhagya
Pinkvilla got in touch with Baseer Ali to ask him about what made him change his mind and continue with Kundali Bhagya. He said, "Well, that's untrue. I had gone on a vacation and resumed the show after that. I hadn't been on a vacation since a long time and thus took some time off. I am currently on a notice period and haven't received a clarity over my exit from the show. I am still waiting for the people in charge to update me on the same."

Baseer Ali reveals not being satisfied with the character graph
When asked if he wasn't satisfied with the character graph, resulting in him quitting the show, Baseer added, "I believe there was a miscommunication. I was expecting something else from the show. I had a few discussion with the team but things don't seem to work according to my expectations, so I decided to move on. I would love to take up something meatier in future. Having said that, I have immense gratitude for the makers. This was my debut as an actor and I loved essaying Shaurya Luthra so far. It has been a fun ride."
Talking about participating in reality shows, Baseer said, "Well, reality shows are my calling and I'd definitely love to take up Bigg Boss, apparently not this year, but soon (smiles)."

Adrija Roy is replacing Sana Sayyad in Kundali Bhagya
Speaking exclusively with Pinkvilla, Adrija Roy who has been a part of shows like Durga Aur Charu and Imlie, mentioned that replacing a character in a popular show like Kundali Bhagya will be a challenge; however, she mentioned dealing with the same challenge when she took up Imlie as the new lead of the show.
She said, "I am sure it is going to be challenging. But I feel I've done it before. Even in Imlie, I entered post-leap, and there was a lot of pressure and responsibility on my shoulders and this time around too, this will be a challenge."
