The image sparked widespread speculation about a potential twist in the plot, with many fans curious if Jay Soni’s character, Abhinav, and Abhira’s biological father, might make a dramatic comeback.
Samridhii Shukla, who portrays Abhira in the series, shared the now-viral photo of Jay Soni on her social media account. This post ignited rumors about his possible return to the storyline, causing a frenzy among viewers.
To clarify the situation,Jay Soni, addressed the speculation directly, stating, “I am not rejoining the show. I was on the set for a Star Parivaar segment, and it was just a fun experience.”
Jay Soni played the role of Abhinav, a character who entered Akshara’s life during a critical phase. They met on a bus, and Abhinav helped Akshara get to a doctor, where she discovered that one of her twin babies had survived. Misunderstandings with Abhimanyu led Akshara to believe he no longer wanted to be part of her life, which ultimately led to her marriage with Abhinav. He became a father figure to her son, Abhir, filling an emotional void during a challenging time.
