The TV show based on the life of the historical couple Jodha-Akbar has been surrounded by controversies ever since it went on air. And now, buzz is that Paridhi Sharma, who plays queen Jodha, is planning to bid the show adieu.
An insider says, "Rajat Tokas, who plays Akbar in the show, and director Santram Verma are good friends and they share a smooth working relationship. But Paridhi and Rajat don’t see eye to eye, and she has been having a tough time during shoots. Santram apparently has been making her work at odd hours. He even makes her wait unnecessarily at times."
The source adds, "Earlier, when Ekta Kapoor was producing the show, Paridhi had asked her to intervene to resolve the matter. But nothing really changed. As she is not producing the show anymore, things have gotten worse. Paridhi is now contemplating quitting the show."
