Why did Kitu Gidwani leave Shaktimaan?
Kitu further says- ‘I had left Shaktimaan then, perhaps I felt that this show was not made for me. I thought I should do something else. I wanted to do something where I am the lead. I liked the comedy scenes in Shaktimaan, I had a great time during that time. But, then I felt that I could do much better. Sorry Shaktimaan fans, sometimes mistakes happen. Yes, I still regret my decision. If I watched it today, I would have done 100 episodes, but no problem. Sometimes mistakes happen.
What did Kitu Gidwani say about Mukesh Khanna?
Along with this, Kitu Gidwani also talked about Mukesh Khanna. He said- ‘Mukesh ji is very passionate. Are down to earth. I had no problem with them. Like him, I also have opinions. At that time he did not even know how to talk to actresses properly. I think he must have been very hurt by my leaving the show, that’s why he never called. Yes, director Dinkar Jani had definitely asked the reason behind my leaving the show, but Mukesh never asked. I feel sorry for hurting them. I was so obsessed and confused that I never called anyone. I am also a human being, different things come to my mind.
