While the generation leap is in process at Zee TV's Pavitra Rishta in full swing, last minute casting replacements don't seem to end.
 
According to our source "Asha Negi, who was expected to play the character of Purvi, Archana's (Ankita Lokhande) daughter, has been replaced by Shafaq Naaz, last seen as Guni in Star Plus'  Bidaai. It is believed that Asha, who also plays Apeksha in Sony TV's Bade Acche Laggte Hai, will find it difficult to handle both the shows, as Apeksha's character has been slowly building up to be an important one."
 
We contacted Asha Negi who confirms this news, " Yes I am not playing the character of Purvi. Initially, when I was told about this I was a little upset, but Ekta Ma'am made me realize that I would need to concentrate more on Apeksha's character as it was slowly becoming a major one. That's the reason, I've been replaced. I believe everything happens for the good."
 
We surely hope that this optimism continue.
