Actor Paras Kalnawat, who shot to fame with daily soap Anupamaa as Samar, will no longer be part of the show. The makers have terminated his contract. Paras has been accused of ‘breach of contract’ by the production house. The reason is that the actor has signed another show for a rival channel. Paras has signed a dance reality show, Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. The actor will be seen in season 10 of the reality show.
The production house has released a statement which mentions that on account of breach of contract for signing up a show on another channel, Paras Kalnawat’s services as an actor have been terminated.
Check out the statement released by the production house:
The statement released by the production house read, “Paras Kalnawat’s services as an actor for Anupamaa terminated by Directors Kut Production. Producer Rajan Shahi who is known for producing hit shows Anupamaa and Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai on Star Plus has taken a stand to terminate the contract of actor Paras Kalnawat, who played Samar in Anupamaa on account of breach of contract for signing up a show on another channel’s show without any prior intimation. Directors Kut and Rajan Shahi have always been accommodating to actors and never stops any actor’s growth.
