Anupamaa is one of the most loved shows on Indian television. Since its launch in 2020, it has kept the audience's hook with its exciting storyline and relatable theme. But, recently, the show has undergone many changes. Anupamaa has attracted a lot of attention lately, but not for good reason. The abrupt departure of several well-known actors of the show's has undoubtedly caught viewers' attention. The announcement of a leap that followed led to the departure of the majority of the cast, including Madalsa Sharma, Nidhi Shah, Nishi Saxena, Kunwar Amar, and others.
In an interview with Filmy, Madalsa, who portrayed 'Kavya' on Anupamaa, talked about how her relationship with Rupali Ganguly deteriorated over time. She even accused the actress of talking behind her back. However, Paras Kalnawat and Nidhi Shah also hinted at Rupali Ganguly. Although they did not mention any names, they claimed that they were having several problems on the set of Anupamaa, which ultimately caused them to leave the show.
In a podcast with Bhaktiyar Irani and Ali Asgar, Paras, who portrayed 'Anupamaa's youngest son, 'Samar', talked about how he was fired from the show more than two years ago. Paras said in the same podcast that it had been two and a half years since he left the show, and he was the first to do so. He said that the experience was abrupt and perplexing, and he wasn't sure if he was being rejected or resigned.
Paras wanted to quit, but he pointed out that the contract merely permitted the producers to terminate employment, not quit. He also mentioned that they didn't have an escape clause, which he said could result in unfavourable conditions, and that they appeared to take pride in doing so. In his words:
“It’s been two and a half years now; I was the first one to leave. It was all of a sudden. I didn’t know if I was quitting or being thrown out. I wanted to leave, but they don’t have a policy where you can quit. They can only fire you; they get satisfaction in doing that. There is no exit clause; if you want to leave, the terms go bad."
In addition, Paras stated that he hoped his plot would get better but that 'a certain person" was to blame. Although he wanted his character to grow, he disclosed that it had been abruptly interrupted by someone, and he knew who was to blame. Because of the show's popularity, he said, the channel did not step in. He said no one would confront her if that person had problems filming with him, suggesting that everyone was aware of the culprit. He said:

"I wanted my track to grow, but someone had abruptly ended it. I know who it was. But because it was the number one show, the channel never intervened. If someone said she had a problem shooting with me, no one would question her. Everyone knows who had the problem."
Nidhi Shah also said that 'a person' was the reason she had reached her breaking point. She clarified that they no longer wanted to do the sequences together at one point because they were so monotonous, which caused them to argue frequently. They would rather stay apart on set, she acknowledged. She added that her scenes were deleted and that she usually experienced problems with her hair and wardrobe because she was frequently provided with nicer attire. In her words:
"There had come a trigger point; it was a person. Our scenes were repetitive, and we kept fighting. At one point, we just didn’t want to do the scenes. There was a time when we just didn’t want to work with each other on the show. We would just want to stay away from each other on set too. My scenes were cut too, and there was an issue with my clothes and hair as well. It happened to me a lot because I was given better clothes."
When asked directly about facing issues with Rupali Ganguly, Nidhi said, "She is a talented actress, and I’m not just being diplomatic. Out of the ten of us, a couple created issues." In addition to discussing themselves, Nidhi illuminated the fact that Sudhanshu Pandey was terribly ill but had to film long sequences with copious amounts of talk.
