MUMBAI: Popular actor Karan Mehra, who is still remembered for his character portrayal of Naitik in Star Plus’ top-rated show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, is back in the news.

As we know, Karan ended his flourishing journey in the show, and the makers then brought actor Vishal Singh on board to play Naitik’s character. However, Karan and producer Rajan Shahi continue to share a cordial relationship.

There are reports that recently, at an award function, Karan and Rajan happened to bump into each other and even shared a hug. It was also mentioned that there are chances of Karan returning to the show to play Naitik’s part.

To get clarity on the reports, we buzzed Karan, who refuted the rumours and shared, 'Well, we are in touch and exchange messages, but I couldn’t meet Rajan Sir that day. It is strange how such news is formulated.'

When asked if he has been approached to return in Yeh Rishta, he replied, 'Abhi tak toh aisa kuch bhi nahi hai'.
