New Delhi: Star Plus’ popular show ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’ has managed to entertain the viewers with its drama-packed episodes. The show starring Mohsin Khan and Shivangi Joshi in lead roles is doing quite well on the TRP charts despite competing over nine years. The daily soap is currently focusing on the pregnancy track of Naira and fans are loving it. Speculations are rife that one of the actors of YRKKH has decided to leave the show. We are talking about Rishi Dev who plays the role of Naksh in the show.

A report in an entertainment portal suggested that Rishi wants to look for better opportunities and also focus on his growing YouTube channel.

“Rishi has already had a word with the production house and channel, and is on his way out. The reason for this move is that he wants to look for greener pastures and allocate more time to his growing Youtube channel, RIMORAV VLOGS,” a source told IWMBuzz.

Rishi, who has been part of shows like ‘Balika Vadhu’ and ‘Bani-Ishq Da Kalma’, replaced Rohan Mehra on YRKKH in 2016. The actor has played the role of Naksh for two long years and his chemistry with his on-screen wife Mohena Singh (Keerti) is quite popular.


'Yeh Rishta', over the years has seen several replacements, be it Vishal Singh replacing Karan Mehra or Deblina Chatterjee stepping into the shoes of Kanchi. The show originally started as the journey of Akshara (Hina Khan) and Naitik (Karan Mehra) and later shifted base to Kartik & Naira's story.
