However, even before Shehzada Dhami, the role of Armaan was offered to someone else. Yes, speaking to Telly Masala, Saavi Ki Savaari actor Farman Haider revealed he was offered the role of Armaan before. Samridhii Shukla who plays the lead role of Abhira in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai was seen opposite Farman in Saavi Ki Savaari.
Farman revealed he was offered Armaan’s role in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai but he rejected the role. He said that he had signed Aaina show and hence, he told the casting director of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai that he has already signed her show and cannot leave that in between.
He was also approached for the show again when Shehzada was terminated and Rohit was finalised. Farman said that he did get a call but not directly from the producer but through some co-ordinators. However, he said that he can only finalise things if he was free and cannot be leaving an already running show.
He also said that if he gets a chance again, he would love to join Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. He further spoke about Shehzada, Pratiksha’s controversy. He said that only the actors and the production team knows the truth and no one else should comment on it.
