Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai New Cast Promo: Rohit Purohit and Garvita Sadhwani join the show as Armaan Poddar and Roohi Poddar respectively

Just a day ago, reports of a major change in cast on the sets of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai left fans shocked. It seems that producer Rajan Shahi was left disappointed with Shehzada Dhami and Pratiksha Honmukhe for their misbehaviour towards the crew. Despite several warnings when they refused to change it, they were fired from the show despite playing lead characters. Now the latest update on that front is that Samriddhii Shukla, who plays the protagonist Abhira, will now be joined by Rohit Purohit and Garvita Sadhwani.

In fact, the makers have also unveiled a short promo of the two actors dressed in ethnic Rajasthani attires. For the unversed, Shehzada Dhami and Pratiksha Honmukhe essayed the role of estranged lovers Armaan Poddar and Roohi Poddar, whose relationship turns even more complicated with Armaan marrying Abhira after the demise of her mother Akshara and Roohi marrying Rohit over extreme family pressure. The latest promo features Rohit Purohit and Garvita Sadhwani playing holi with flowers considering that the festival is round the corner where they showcase the intense love between the two, leaving audiences surprised about their chemistry.
