New Delhi: Star Plus’ ‘Ishqbaaaz’ is one of the most popular shows on the small screens. The romantic saga, which enjoys a massive fan following on social media stars Nakuul Mehta and Niti Taylor in lead roles. Speculations have been rife that the show will go off air and make way for Shaheer Sheikh and Rhea Sharma starrer ‘Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke’.  However, the channel and the makers are yet to confirm the same.

WHAT! ‘Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke’ to REPLACE ‘Ishqbaaaz’? Here’s the truth

As per the latest buzz, the makers are planning to spice up things by introducing Shivaansh’s ex-girlfriend in the show.

According to a report in an entertainment portal, popular TV actress Ridhi Dogra will enter the show as Shivaansh’s (Nakuul Mehta) former girlfriend.


Ridhi will play the role of an actress named Rewa in Ishqbaaaz and her entry will bring in a major twist in the show, as per the report in Pinkvilla.

Shivaansh will be in two minds and Rewa’s entry is expected to be a solid blast from the past. We wonder how her entry will change the lives of Shivaansh and Mannat who are yet to start their ‘Ishqbaaazi’.

Ridhi was last seen in the show ‘Who Apna Sa’ where she will played the role of Nisha. The ‘Maryada: Lekin Kab Tak’ actress was recently in news after she announced her separation from husband Rakesh Bapat after seven years of marriage.
