[tps_footer]Qubool Hai has finally found the replacement for Asad Khan initially essayed by Karan Singh Grover. Raqesh Vashisht who is currently busy with Nach Baliye 6 along with wife Ridhi Dogra Vashisth has been zeroed down to play the part.
Zee TV was clear that besides being a good actor, the person who would bag the role had to be a thorough professional with a good track record in the television industry and Raqesh fit the bill.
Raqesh is paired opposite Zoya (Surbhi Jyoti) in Qubool Hai. The channel feels that Raqesh is not only handsome and good-looking but also his pairing with Zoya (Surbhi Jyoti) looks amazing. According to them the most important part is that he is known in the industry for his professionalism and they are glad that he has agreed to come on board. Everyone is totally convinced that he will be able to carry off the role of Asad.
“Its homecoming for me as my debut on television happened with Saat Phere on Zee TV. Qubool Hai is a hugely popular show worldwide and Asad is an enormously popular character. I’m happy that the creative team thought that I would be appropriate for the role. The year has ended on a very good note for me as my fans will see me all seven days! Monday to Friday on Qubool Hai and over the weekend on my dance reality show. I shot a dangerous fire sequence as my entry scene a couple of days back and it has come out really well. The cast and crew have given me a very warm welcome and I’m hoping a similar response from the viewers as well.” told an elated Raqesh.
Now all that’s left to be seen is if the audience will accept this new Asad with open arms and will give him as much love as they gave Karan.[/tps_footer]
