But with this piece of information, seems like that controversy is finally over for the show.
TV actress Jannat Zubair who is seen as playing ‘Pankti’ was uncomfortable in doing intimate scenes. Actress’ mother also lashed out at makers and asked them for no kissing scene between 16-year-old Jannat and Ritvik.
At first, makers were not ready to compromise and started looking for Jannat’s replacement. But guess what? Maamla has been settled and Jannat will continue to play the lead role.
Confirming the news to Spotboye.com, Jannat’s mother said, “"Yes, we had a meeting with the makers and they have accepted our terms and conditions. Henceforth, Jannat will not do any intimate scene as has already been mentioned in our contract. She is just 16 years old and we don't want her to engage in any sort of intimacy.”
She further added, “We respect the script’s demand and to tell you, we allowed her to do a few scenes which involved Ritvik kissing Jannat’s hand. In fact, we used to apply wax and make-up on the body so that the sensation of touch is minimal. We know we are part of the glamour industry where such things are normal, but it’s just that my daughter is young for it".
Well, this is definitely a good news for all the Pankti and Ahaan (Ritvik Arora) fans.
