Apparently, Riya aka Ekta will be shown killed while the time of conceiving her baby. Ekta confirmed this news to the same portal and said,  

“Yes, I am quitting the show owing to good personal reasons.”

She is best known for her role of Suhani in Bade Acche Lagte Hain on Sony TV but she rose to fame with her Zee TV show Rab Se Sona Ishq. She participated in dance show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 6. The actress was seen missing in action on the show since quite some time. She was diagnosed with dengue last year and ever since then her appearances were a rare sight on her show. It was even said that the actress was planning to tie the knot owing to an Instagram post of hers. The actress later had stated that it was just a prank played by her and her onscreen sister-in-law Charu Asopa. Apparently, her on-screen chemistry with her reel husband Shivam aka Karam Rajpal is loved by many.

Going by her statement of leaving the show for personal good reasons, does it hint at her wedding to be on cards soon? Only time will tell.

TV stars who play relatives on screen but ‘couples’ in real life

Reel to Real life couples

Everybody is aware of the beautiful Bollywood couple Nargis and Sunil Dutt. Their story is nothing short of a fairy tale romance. In 1958, they got married in a secret ceremony and didn’t make the news public for nearly a year. Even after getting married, they stayed with their respective families. They’d meet late into the nights and communicate through letters and telegrams. In 1959, after making the news of their marriage public, they held a reception, and moved in together. But for many, the news of their marriage came as a shock as they played mother and son on screen in ‘Mother India’.

In the television industry where the daily soap actors meet each other every day for no less than 8 to 10 hours, the attraction will lead to the interaction and then the bonding is bound to happen, right?
