Replaces Gourav Chanana on the Sony show Risshton Ki Dor

Amit Sareen is all set to replace Gourav Chanana in the Sony afternoon soap Risshton Ki Dor. Chanana's portrayal of the character of the sauve Rahul Raichand, who romances three women, had been found lacking by the channel.
Unit sources reveal that that Chanana was shown the door a couple of days ago and has since stopped shooting for the drama.
For Sareen, this will mark his entry back on the small screen, after playing Kshitij in Kkusum and Saahil in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. Earlier, Sareen had also announced that he wanted to do films — something which has yet to take off.
Lacking punch
The reason for Chanana's ouster from this Shree Adhikari Bros production is that he failed to pack a punch in the soap, which itself has failed to garner eyeballs.
When asked about his entry in the show, Sareen preferred to keep mum. "I don't want to say anything at this stage," he says.
And as for his film career, he says, "It's better to talk about it only when things actually take off."
It is learnt that he was approached for Risshton Ki Dor a few days back, and it is almost certain that he will be a part of the afternoon daily. For him, it will be a homecoming of sorts as he featured in Kkusum, which was also on Sony.
Change of track
Chanana was earlier seen in a double role in the Star One daily, Hey... Yehi To Hai Woh.
About his exit from the show Chanana says, "The channel told me about the decision they had taken. They are changing the track. It was all mutually agreed and I agreed to leave the daily."
The cast of Risshton Ki Dor includes Anuj Saxena, Urvashi Dholakia, Muskaan Mihani, Shital Thakkar and Monaz Mevawalla and Sampada Vaze. It is a relationships saga of three sisters and their brother.
It is also learnt that plans are afoot to introduce a new female character in the afternoon soap to provide a much-needed impetus to the afternoon saga. The character is slated to be that of a blast from the past in Suhas's (Saxena) life.
