"The production house and channel wanted to rope in a well known name as leaps are always a risk. Ashoka is one of the top rated shows on the channel and the young Ashoka, played by Siddharth Nigam, has quite a fan following," the source said.

"Hence, they wanted to take a name like Gautam who has a tremendous fan following and has also proved himself as a versatile actor on television," the source added.

However, the source shared that as 'Suryaputra Karn' has got extension and hence Gautam won't be able to take up this offer.
