Mohan Joshi who was essaying the character of Nityanand Tewari to the 'T' in Star One's Dhoondh Legi Manzil Humein will now be replaced by talented theatre actor Anil Maggo.

Our source states, "Mohan Joshi was perfectly fitting the role of Alka's father, but the actor had date problems as he had to juggle between his film shoot and the show. The creative team has been giving his character a break as and when the actor was not available. But this could not go on for long, as the politician's character happens to be one of the pivotal roles on the show".

Hence the decision to replace him with yet another known name was worked upon. Anil Maggo who is a theatre artist has worked in shows like Grihasti on Star Plus and Phulwa on COLORS.

We hear that Anil Maggo who started his working career in 1977 truly cherishes the opportunity of playing the character of Nityanand Tewari in the Star One show.

We tried calling Mohan Joshi for a comment on the same, but he remained unavailable.

Anil Maggo's entry sequence will be aired in Tuesday's episode..
