Naman ShawRivalry between two channels can often prove costly for actors and Arjun Bijlani is the latest victim of this. The actor was finalised to play the new hero (the new Kunj) in the show'Tashan-E-Ishq'. But the team working on the show replaced him quickly on learning of his participation in the upcoming season of the dance reality show 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa', which airs on a rival channel. Confirming that Arjun was caught in the crossfire between two channels, a source associated with the show said, "Sidhant had to exit the show for the same reason. He was keen on taking up a dance reality show that he was approached for. It becomes difficult for an actor to balance two shows at a time. They didn't want a repeat of that with Arjun."
"In the past too, there have been cases where channels have stopped their actors from taking up reality shows on a rival channel," says another source.
