Anupamaa: Chandni Bhagwanani talks about Sudhanshu Pandey's exit from the show

Star Plus's hit show Anupamaa continues to make headlines, especially with the recent shock announcement from Sudhanshu Pandey, who plays Vanraj Shah. Sudhanshu's abrupt exit from the show surprised fans, who were disappointed by his decision shared via social media. Vanraj Shah, a character nearly as beloved as the titular Anupamaa, had earned high praise for Sudhanshu's performance, cementing his place as a top television actor.

In response to his departure, not only have fans been upset, but his co-stars have also expressed their dismay. Chandni Bhagwanani, who portrays Vanraj's daughter, Pakhi, shared her feelings about Sudhanshu's sudden exit.

In an interview with Pinkvilla, Chandni expressed sadness over his departure, noting that they are giving him space and understanding that he must receive numerous calls. She mentioned that the topic is not being discussed on set due to its sensitivity and lamented that they didn't get a chance to say a proper goodbye.

Chandni, who replaced Muskaan Bamne as Pakhi, recalled feeling nervous when she first joined the set. However, Sudhanshu's warm and welcoming nature immensely helped her adjust. She praised his professionalism and highlighted that working with him was a positive experience.

"Anupamaa" is produced by Rajan Shahi and Deepa Shahi under the Director's Kut Productions banner and features Rupali Ganguly, Madalsa Sharma, and Gaurav Khanna in the lead roles.
