Dimple Jhangiani, last seen as the lead opposite Gaurav Gera in Mrs Pammi Pyarelal, recently rejected a role in Iss Pyar Ko Kya Naam Doon... Ek Baar Phir. When asked why, she simply says, "It wasn't the lead role." We hear the role has now gone to Neha Sargam, who played Sita in Ramayan.
Reveals our source, "The part offered to Dimple was that of a girl associated with Shlok's (Avinash Sachdev) past. It may not be the lead role, but is certainly intriguing and pivotal."
Says Dimple, "I would have loved to do the show, but I was on stand-by for another show to play the lead. I was in a predicament. The makers of IPKKND wanted me to start shooting immediately, while the other production house was taking time to finalise. It was a huge risk but I decided to wait. I would have done that cameo had the situation been different. It was a strong character with shades of grey, something I haven't done before. But obviously, I would rather wait for the lead role than cameo appearances."
