Dheeraj Dhoopar, who recently quit Kundali Bhagya is now a part of the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 10. Meanwhile, the actor is all set for his upcoming show Sheirdill Sheirgill. However, during a recent interview with BT, the actor revealed that this was not the reason why he quit Kundali Bhagya.
He said, “I quit Kundali because I wanted to grow and see things from a newer perspective. I acted in Kundali for five years and the show has made me what I am today. But people should know that I did not quit the show because I wanted to do Jhalak… My parents have always taught me to take risks and I have also learned that you need to exit something to start a new adventure. Jhalak and Sheirdill Sheirgill happened simultaneously and my baby also arrived so everything happened at the same time. But this misconception that I quit the show because I was offered these shows, is not true.”
Dheeraj also added that this is not the first time that he quit a show while it was doing well. He added, “I did Sasural Simar Ka for five years and then quit the show, and soon bagged Kundali Bhagya. So, this is not the first time that I have quit a show when it’s doing well. If you don’t take breaks or don’t try newer things, how will you grow? How will your career graph look?”
Sharing his views on the content on TV shows. Dheeraj said, “We have to adapt to what audiences want. If I romanced a makhhi on a show and people liked it, we have to show that to them. Sometimes, you make great content and it does not get you numbers and sometimes you make content that’s average and it brings in good viewership. So what the audience likes is a great mystery.”
