TV actress Donal Bisht, who recently replaced Jasmin Bhasin as 'Happy' in Star Plus show 'Dil Toh Happy Hai Ji', is receiving positive response from the viewers for her performance in the show. But Donal Bisht's happiness was short lived as 'Dil Toh Happy Hai Ji' is going off-air next month. The talented actress is obviously disappointed as the show is going off-air only in two months of her joining. Donal was brought in as Jasmine's replacement with a promise that the show will run for an year. Keeping in mind the dismal rating, the channel has decided to pull the plug on the show.

Reportedly, 'Dil Toh Happy Hai Ji' will end in the first week of August.
Speaking about the same, Donal Bisht told a leading daily that, "I wasn’t expecting things to turn out like this. It’s heartbreaking and I felt bad when we were informed that 'DTHHJ' will go off air. I had quite a few offers, but I chose this show, so it’s disheartening when the unexpected happens. However, I would like to believe that this has happened for the better."
Revealing that she as hesitant to take up 'Dil Toh Happy Hai Ji' and said, "I was a little reluctant to step in for someone else. Being a part of the industry, you do get to know how a show is faring and about its future. I had asked the producers about the chances of 'DTHHJ' going off air, but they were confident that it would not end."

She further told Bombay Times that, "I was promised that the show would run for at least a year, but it’s ending in two months of me joining. Besides, when the protagonist is replaced, it’s usually for the betterment of the show. Considering all these, I took it up. In fact, the makers were planning to shift the set from Naigaon to Film City in October. However, the industry is unpredictable and so is the fate of TV shows. The channel has decided to shut it down even though the ratings haven’t dropped."
For the uninitiated, 'Dil Toh Happy Hai Ji' went on-air in January this year amid huge expectations with Jasmin Bhasin and Ansh Bagri in lead roles. However, the show failed to fetch expected ratings since beginning and is now bidding goodbye to the viewers next month.
