Kanchi Singh is an Indian television actress. She made her debut as a child artist in TV show Kutumb. Currently, She is playing the role of Gayu in the Star Plus popular show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. According to the sources, Kanchi will soon be leaving the show. Earlier, Hina Khan, Karan Mehra and Rohan Mehra also left the show. Now the latest artist to quit the long-running show ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’ is Kanchi Singh. The actress joins the show last year to play Gayatri (grown-up Naira’s sister)
Sources reveal that “Kanchi wasn’t happy with the way her track was shaping up. Her character was sidelined and after much contemplation, she decided to call it quits. She will shoot her last episode around the end of September.”
On this Kanchi confirms, “Yes, I have quit the show. I didn’t see any future for my character. I totally understand that shifting focus from a popular couple — Kartik and Naira — to any other character could be detrimental to the show, but my character was completely sidelined in the bargain. I wish the ‘Yeh Rishta…’ team all the best. I’ll always be indebted to producer Rajan Shahi, who launched me in the industry. I would like to play meaningful characters now and have decided to take up only lead roles.”
Asked if she has confirmed with her beau Rohan Mehra, Kanchi replies, “We keep our professional lives separate. Just like him, I discuss my professional life only with my family. He has nothing to do with my decision to quit the show.”
