Kumkum Bhagya continues to be a cult show as it has quite the fan following and has come through despite all the leaps and new actors. Akshay Bindra and Pranali Rathod are the leading actors in the show. Amid recent rumours of the show going off-air, we had a quick chat with Akshay, where he spoke about being a part of the show, rumours around dating Pranali, fan response to the new pairing, and more.
Talking about what it’s been like to lead such a legacy show, Akshay Bindra tells us, “Well, it has been overwhelming to get a lead in such a big franchise of Balaji. It’s like a dream come true.”

Talking about his off-screen bond with Pranali Rathod and how their Holi videos sparked dating rumours, Akshay Bindra tells us, “We both are good friends, and we do a lot of masti on set. I am still single and I am ready to mingle. Haven’t found my real-life heroine yet.”
Ask him if it bothered him when rumours about the show going off air came in, and Akshay Bindra said, “No, it didn’t, because whatever has to happen will happen for the good only. Plus, this is Kumkum Bhagya; it is Ektaa Ma’am’s baby; she wouldn’t let it go off air so soon.”
While he didn’t reveal much about what’s to follow on Kumkum Bhagya, we also asked him if he thinks it’s unfair to actors when fans don’t accept new pairings, and he has a very sensible response. Akshay Bindra doesn’t feel it is unfair and said, ’It’s not unfair as they connect with the previous characters, and it’s difficult for them to accept the new ones. But with our hard work and performance, we’ll manage to make them like the new jodi.”
