Parth Samthaan on replacing Shivaji Satam

With the news of him replacing Shivaji Satam coming in, Parth opened up about taking up the role and, in conversation with Saas Bahu Aur Betiyaan, shared, "Yeh ek iconic show hai jo chala araha hai (This is an iconic show which has been going on) Sony Entertainment Television par. When I discussed it with my family, they thought I was joking. But when I told them I was doing it seriously, they were very proud. It`s actually a very big responsibility to fill in such shoes, such humongous shoes of ACP Pradyuman, since I`m replacing him as ACP Ayushmann. It`s a new character, a new story. We will take the story forward with new thrill and suspense. I never thought I would be part of such a collaboration. This is a cross-collaboration for me... I`m glad to be a part of such an iconic show."
