Zee TV’s popular historical love drama Jodha Akbar has been enthralling viewers with its royal tales of the great Mughal family.

With the leap taking place sometime back, in addition to the love story of Jodha (Paridhi Sharma) and Akbar (Rajat Tokas), the plot of Salim (Ravi Bhatia) and Anarkali (Heena Parmar) too has taken force in the popular Balaji Telefilms show.

Although viewers have been loving the on screen (and off screen) chemistry of Ravi and Heena, we have been informed that auditions are on to get a new Salim in the coming days.

Yes, that's how the scenario on the sets of Jodha Akbar looks like.

Shared a source, “A lot of expectations have been riding high on Ravi and with the makers not satisfied with his act, they have decided to get a new face to add spice and bring back the falling numbers. The creatives are planning a short leap, wherein Salim would age and thus a new face will take the stride further.”

Tellychakkar.com has found out that popular young TV actors are being auditioned at the moment and the finalization is set to happen in the coming days.

We buzzed Ravi on the same, but he denied the news stating that it is a rumor.

Producer Ekta Kapoor also did not revert to our text message till the time of filing the story.

Well, our eyes and ears are on this replacement news for sure. We will update you in quick time as and when it happens.
