The producer as asked about his decision of not giving any pay cuts to his team, when all other producers are practicing it. "Yes, it's true we are not doing any pay cuts and I will try my best that in future too, we don't have to resort to such measures. I will also not be forcing any of my actors to come on the set and shoot if they are uncomfortable due to the situation outside. It will be their decision and I will respect it," concluded Modi. 

While many of the shows are resuming shoots, fans of this longest running show are also eagerly waiting to see fresh episodes. Meanwhile, Sodhi's fans can heave a sigh of relief as the producer has denied any such development.
