Actors Who Quit TV Shows Only To Make A Comeback In The Same Role

The diva of small screen became a household name after her show Pavitra Rishta became an overnight success. However, owing to some personal differences with the show, she called it quits. Gautami Kapoor was signed to play her role but after a brief period of time, Ankita came back. To add more spice to the story, she was seen portraying two roles, that of a grandmother and her granddaughter.

The honourable incumbent Minister of Human Resource Development, Mrs Smriti Irani gained immense popularity when she played the role of an ideal wife and daughter-in-law in the show Kyunkii Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. However, not everything was hunky dory in the paradise when she quit the show because of some differences with producer Ekta Kapoor. Gautami Kapoor, the production house’s safety net, was roped in to play the role but the audience was not convinced and Smriti irani had to be called back.

Even though she was seen in some serials before F.I.R, this was the show that made her a star. Her role of inspector Chandramukhi Chautala earned her much fame. However, when she got a chance to do something different in a love-story, she said good bye to F.I.R. The production house decided to give the show a leap and roped in Chak De fame actor Chitrashi Rawat to play the role of Surajmukhi Chautala, the daughter of Chandramukhi Chautala. However, when the popularity of F.I.R began to dip and Kavita’s new show failed to do any wonders, she made a comeback and the whole leap was cast aside as a dream sequence.
