Karan Singh Grover the actor who essays the role of Asad Ahmed Khan in Zee TV’s Qubool Hai, has been asked to leave the show due to his unprofessional behaviour.
Shocked! Sad! Disappointed! Well this was a forgone conclusion as such kind of behaviour is not that’s new to the actor. Infact very few people know that Karan Singh Grover was the first choice for Star TV’s hit show Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon, but then the channel had put their foot down as they had bitter experiences with the same actor on the other show Dill Mill Gaye, that was one of their channel drivers and that’s how Barun Sobti had bagged the role of Arnav Singh Raizada, post that the rest was history.
Couple of years ago, Karan Singh Grover had quit television on the pretext of trying his hand in Bollywood but when he could not make it he quietly came back to where he belonged and that was television. Karan participated in two reality shows Khataron Ke Khiladi Season 3 and then one saw him in Jhalak Dikhhla Ja Season 3.
Karan Singh Grover did a film or two, but then all of them sank at the Box-Office. He was in the news for his divorce with Shraddha Nigam who he married in the year 2008 and they parted ways in 2009. Eventually Karan found his life partner in Jennifer Winget and they tied a knot in the year 2012.
Coming back to Qubool Hai, the show went on air on October 29, 2012 and within a span of six months, it became a rage and that’s where the trouble started. Karan Singh Grover started showing his true colurs and would not report to work for days and every time had a lame excuse to give. Even when he came, he would only shoot for a few hours and leave. He was extremely unprofessional for the past few months, and this was the primary reason that the channel as well as the production house decided to end the ordeal and sack him as it was getting more and more difficult to keep altering the storyline constantly due to his unavailability.
The production house as well as the channel is planning to take legal action against Karan Singh Grover.
A piece of advice to actors like Karan: no actor can rise above the script and your erratic behaviour can affect the livelihoods of many others who are working on a particular show. So be careful.
As the reports are filed, the channel is in talks with Raqesh Vashisth who was last seen on Maryada: Lekin Kab Tak on Star Plus and is currently participating in the celebrity dance show Nach Baliye 6 with his wife Riddhi Dogra.
