Hiten Tejwani, who had replaced Sushant as Manav, will be making an early exit from the show, paving the way for latter’s entry. “Manav and Archana will be seen holding hands in the last scene. The serial will thus come to an end, suggesting the immortal love story of Manav and Archana,” adds the source.
The channel spokesperson confirmed the news. Sushant said, “Pavitra Rishta is and has always been really close to my heart. I learnt a lot during the show but moved on to explore and experiment other domains in acting. But as promised back then, I am back on the show after three years to be part of the culmination of a journey that we all began together five years ago.”
