Ashish Chowdhry to quit Ek Mutthi Aasmaan; Shaleen Malhotra to replace Ashish Chowdhry?

After Rachana Parulkar, Ashish Chowdhry is all set to make an exit from the show Ek Mutthi Aasmaan, Shaleen Malhotra might replace Ashish as Raghav Singhania.

DJ’s Creative Unit’s popular show Ek Mutthi Aasmaan is gearing up with various twists and turns in its storyline. After Rachna’s exit from the show now the male lead of the show Ashish Chowdhry has called it quits.

Yes you all heard it right! Ashish will no longer be seen as the suave and rich businessman Raghav Singhania in the show. The latter confirmed through a tweet stating, “So yeah;last day!Will miss #EMA shoots tomorrow on.Its time 4 some attention 2 office work,some new assignments,family-time n bodybuilding!”

Well, with Rachna and Ashish’s exit, we are sure fans must be wondering who will be the new leads of the show. But to their respite as updated you earlier Asha Negi Pavitra Rishta’s fame will essay the role of Kalpi.

Now for the male lead, the name which was doing the rounds for quite sometime now was of the dashing actor Shaleen Malhotra who is better known as Arjun from Star Plus’ crime series Arjun.

As per our reliable sources we got to know that, “Shaleen has been approached by the production house to play the character of Raghav in Ek Mutthi Aasmaan and he might be the final choice of the makers. He is yet to get the confirmation from the makers.”

We tried calling Shaleen Malhotra but he remained unavailable.

With the dipping TRPs of the show Ek Mutthi Aasmaan will the show be able to pull off and win the attention of the audiences? Will Asha and Shaleen’s chemistry show the magic like Rachna and Ashish’s chemistry?

It’s a wait and watch game now. Till then keep reading this space.

    The only reason that I watch Ek mutti Asmaan is because of Raghav and kalpi, now that they are both out of the show I am not interested in it anymore. However I do wish them all the best, and to those who replaced them, I know they would do a good job, but at the end of the day they are not Kalpi and Raghav…… Sorry, for me No one can take their place.

    It was such a good show. Thought this show will pass very important values like morality, right from wrong and most important new kind of friendship in new Era.

    ek mutti asmaan you’ve made a mistake! even if you want to make any changes not now when everyone is enjoying the series. purvi has been a good actress in pavitra rishta but one cannot be good in another person’s position and let me tell you in a Nigerian proverb our country, you cannot eat your time and eat somebody’s time. which means the way you shine in your place you cannot shine in somebody’s place. purvi is also one of our favorite but don’t expect her to be perfect as kalpi in this role. what raghav did was also a wise decision and that has made an easy way for everyone to completely stop watching ek mutti asmaan. I think this will lead to a destruction of ek mutti asmaan.

    on behalf of so many people that we are watching ek mutti asmaan together, we are very displeased about the replacement of Kalpi and that has discouraged us from watching this series henceforth even though she is replaced by a good actress, she cannot be a second kalpi to kalpi’s fans. these changes would change the excitement of ek mutti asmaan totally

    Yea Mahi Sammy, below, but let’s see how long Asha will last, she is popular unlike Shirina, she might get the boot soon too. They only bring in Asha to raise TRP, but if they don’t give her the boot because she more popular than shirina, she might quit for the crawly storyline, I wad some comments from some of her fans, they seem very shallow and dumb. Abusing Rachna as if they know the girl.
    I am so glad Rachna and Ashish both out of that crappy crap.
    Wish them all the best and hope they get something fantastic and lush EMA out the door for good.
    But, sadly, where in Bollywood would one get some PH and CVs with good sense to bring out something with substance and not the usual crap. Ekta comes up with the most amazing serials, but then turns it into total crap after a nice long run.

      Kris, the thing that confuses me is why the crap do people think TRP is low because of Rachna. It must be some Asha Negi fan that hates Rachna.

      Asha Negi is nice but I haven’t seen much of her acting except for lots of depressed and sad looking faces.

      How can two people with two different physical appearance play the same characters. EMA creative must be some ignorant people.

    w/out the regular kalpi and raghav the show will be absolutely uninteresting. their chemistry was sooo great ! how can the channel publish that the trp is falling with such great acting of the pair? their acting was also superb. wish both a great future ahead. ashis is already an established actor, wish rachna to establish herself soon enough

      acting kya hoti hai shayad ema makers ko maloom hi nahi . varna rachana ko yoon badnaam na karte.app such kah rahi hain bina rachna ashish ke show mai rooh hi kahan rah jayegi.

    Paige, my dear, I agree with both your comment here and totally think the same as your comment on the update page,
    Well, what they talking bout viewers of fans will be wondering who’s gonna replace Ashish,???
    DUh we don’t care two hoots who replace or don’t replace, this show could go off air for all I care, or anyone else for that matter.
    How many fans do they have anyways, maybe a few gullible people who are evenly hooked on serials and don’t care what crap they shove down
    Well this is one X fan gone for good.
    Good luck Rachna and Ashish, you guys can do much better than that, hats off to you Ashish for not sticking with that crap. Better things await

    EMA here is your doom…..Enjoy!!!! Yes get Shrini whatever to try and save you from drowning….

    Next time you producers and writers come with a show, please only remember not to take viewers for fools & stupid….and by the way have you ever heard this now…

    ‘Customers are King’….so next time try to understand and respect the wishes of your viewers. Even big actors as Salman, SRK, Aamir know this….so learn!!!!

    Slap your viewers, then be prepared to receive not only double but millions of slaps in return….

    Asha is too old to replace Rachna. A good actress but doesn’t fit the brief me thinks.
    Asha – I am shocked to hear both Rachna and Aashish are leaving. We’ll maybe not given the way the script was going. Darling – don’t set yourself up for failure. EMA is a sinking ship! Heard of the Titanic???

    WELL DONE ASHISH…my respect for you has gone sky high!!! Now I know that I can bury EMA for good because my two favourite people have left the show. Ashish, you are a SUPERB man and actor and you deserve better than what they have reduced your role in EMA. To us the viewers, they raw-deal you and Rachna because you and Rachna were the crowd pleasers, the favourites and LOVED PROFUSELY by ALL VIEWERS.

    I know that you will get better —far better opportunities —than that. You will see. I respect you so much and will continue to love you. My prayers are with you and Rachna that both of you will find greater purpose in life, in your families, in your careers and get bigger and better opportunities. I am so happy. HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY that you have quit this lame EMA. Well done and I gave you a standing ovation for that, my good man! That is character. And I respect you for that! Believe me, I am praying for all success in life for you. One day, if I ever visit India, I hope to find you and Rachna and pay you a visit and say that “Hi, I’m the person who prayed for your success and life”. God bless you, Ashish. And God bless you too Rachna. You guys will taste greater success in life. I believe that everything is controlled by God and things happen for a reason. Sometimes, in order to be moved higher, you have to let go of where you are! Love you LOTS. Be assured of my sincere prayers! Much respect! God bless you!
