I didn't have time to continue with Saarthi..so, my track as Arjun has been killed. My producer (Asit Modi) was not okay with the decision, because I was the central character. I wanted to focus on Meri Awaz.Ko Mil Gayee Roshni, so I requested him to wind up my track as soon as possible without compromising the storyline. Thankfully, that has been done. These past two months have been very hectic. I was hardly going home. From a 9 a m to 10 p m shift for Meri Awaz.. I'd run to the Saarthi set and shoot till 7 a m. The only time I'd get to catch a few winks would be in the car while travelling from one set to the other. No bad blood My co-stars have been very co- operative. I knew it was causing stress to them though none of them – my director, co-stars, executive producer, cameraman – ever created a fuss or threw a tantrum. Everyone did night shifts because of me. They've been very co-operative.I'm really sorry for all the inconvenience I've caused. Saarthi is a big hit..I hope it stays that way. Saturation I was part of Saarthi for 520 episodes but as an actor, I felt the need to do something different. Acting as Raj in Meri Awaz.. has given me that opportunity. Well, so did the character of Arjun. But, h o n e s t l y, I was getting a bit saturated by the charac- ter. I'm look- ing toimprove as an actor. I know Saarthi's TRPs are better than those of Meri Awaz... But one can't compare a show that's run for more than 500 episodes with a new one. The TRPs of a show have nothing to do with my decisions. 520episodes Besides Karan Grover, Saarthi's l lead actress Neha Devi Singh aka Bhumika, was also replaced by Zalak Thakkar a few months ago.

Thanks for the article. I feel actors should have some resp. to their fans. They should not just walk out of a serial cause they got another 1 to do.

I agree wid u Pinky....

I really dislike it when actors leave a show they hav been doing since it started becus they get another one...They need to give those fans a thought who watch the show for them...If they walk out cus of difference wid directors/writers n etc its understandable...I realise its hard to carry two dailys on ur shoulder n play leads for both- but then before taking up one has to realise that...Has to think how their fans wud want to watch a show widout them...Karans exit frm Saarrthi has really affected its loyal viewers...even tho he has MAKMGR, his exit frm Saarrthi didnt digest down well wid me, n especially for the reason he called it quits..

No offense to n e one, only my views 😊

hey, thax for this article....well, i'm happy that karan left the show...well, i love him coz of saarrthi but there's a saturation point to everything (but not of my love for karan, of course)

sabhi show chod rahe the and frankly speaking yeh show arjun aur bhavri ke kandhon par hi tika tha....and waise bhi an actor needs to satisfy his creative needs....500 episodes are not less...and i didn't want karan to be slotted in the category of "useless crying actor working in saas-bahu sagas"!!!

hey, can someone plz get me the photograph of this article separately.....plz plz plz...he looks so charming here😍

yeah saarthi is leading nowhere that is why he left the show..but his co-stars in saarthi first neha devi singh and recently even zalak thakkar both make a much better pair with karan than ashima. neha was exceptionally pretty and shared an amazing chemistry with karan 😍 😍
sudha's character and role is very nice..i wish they had taken neha or zalak for the role than ashima
