TV heartthrob Parth Samthaan is garnering headlines for his power-packed performance as the angry young man Mahid in Seher Hone Ko Hai. His quiet eyes and subtle expressions have made girls on social media swoon over his character, amid accolades and appreciation for the show. His cute and romantic chemistry with Rishita Kothari is also being widely appreciated.
However, like every coin has two sides, amid the show topping the TRP rankings, reports of an alleged feud between Parth and Rishita have surfaced. Several media reports claim that their cold off-screen chemistry has led to issues on the set. The reports also suggest that Parth and Rishita have unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Adding fuel to the fire, rumours about an on-set rift and the show allegedly going off-air had been circulating for days. Now, the actor has stepped in to set the record straight.
Taking to his Instagram handle, Parth confirmed that the show is not going off-air. He wrote, “Amidst the current situation, although I was quiet all this while, all I know is God protects and supports the one jiski niyat saaf hain. I choose peace and love. Peace for my mind and love from you people (which I have always received from your end), #trulyblessed, and lastly, the show is NOT going off air anytime soon… in fact, the best is yet to come. So chill maar bhidu.”
Reports also suggest that Jannat Zubair will be replacing Rishita Kothari. However, no confirmation regarding this has been shared by Parth or the production house.
The controversy began after Parth alleged that he had been receiving hate and negativity on his posts, with trolls even dragging his family into the matter. The actor then decided to take a short social media break and returned on Tuesday, May 5, 2026.
While he was away, several reports claimed that his co-star Rishita Kothari and her boyfriend Mridul Meena were behind the trolling and negativity. Mridul later took to his Instagram handle to shut down the rumours and address the issue, as Parth’s fans targeted both him and Rishita online.
At the same time, speculation about an alleged disagreement between Parth and Rishita intensified after fans noticed that the two had unfollowed each other on Instagram. Reports also linked Mridul Meena to the situation, though he denied any involvement. Rishita acknowledged that misunderstandings may have happened but did not confirm any serious dispute. The production team has also not issued any official statement connecting the controversy to the show’s future.
Earlier, Rishita Kothari had also responded to the situation, saying that much of the narrative was built without proper verification. Speaking to News18, she shared that the phase strengthened her belief in staying grounded.
“I believe when your intentions are clear and your journey is honest, time becomes your biggest ally. Truth prevails, and this moment is a testament to that,” she said.
In another interview with News18, Rishita added that the controversy reinforced her belief that truth does not need aggressive defence, as it eventually finds its way to the surface. She admitted that it was difficult watching unverified claims unfold but maintained that she stayed grounded in her own reality.
