After a shocking turn of events, the producer of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai terminated the contracts of two key actors from the show, Shehzada Dhami and Pratiksha Honmukhe. The reason behind the same has been stated as the actors' unprofessional behavior. Pinkvilla exclusively reported that the producer Rajan Shahi reached the sets of the show and asked the said actors to leave the sets. Sources suggest that the actors were given fifteen minutes to leave the sets.

Right after the news of the producer throwing out the two key actors, Rohit Purohit and Garvita Sadhwani were announced to replace Shehzada Dhami and Pratiksha Honmukhe.
