It's official! Daily soap Jothe Jotheyalli has finally found its new 'Mansi'.
Nayana will be seen as the new 'Mansi' in Jothe Jotheyalli. The actress has replaced Shilpa Iyer in the show.
Although the channel airing the show and the makers have been tight-lipped about Nayana stepping into the shoes of Shilpa Iyer in Jothe Jotheyalli, a close source from the team confirmed the news to ETimes TV.
Nayana has joined team Jothe Jotheyalli and will soon be making her appearance in the show. This is the actress' second outing post-delivery of her first baby. She returned to acting with 'Inti Nimma Asha' after her toddler son nearly turned a year.
On the other hand, Shilpa Iyer walked out of Jothe Jotheyalli recently. The actress quit the show midway. Although rumors were rife about the actress quitting the show, Shilpa officially announced her exit from the show by sharing a video on her Instagram handle.
The actress in the video has mentioned that she chose to quit the show mid-way due to personal commitments. Stating that she had often been questioned about her exit from Jothe Jotheyalli for nearly two weeks, Shilpa mentioned that it was a tough decision for her to call it quits. In the video, the actress also mentioned that she will no longer be seen as 'Mansi' in the show. She also thanked viewers and fans for supporting her throughout the journey of Jothe Jotheyalli.
Having said that, Shilpa also dropped a hint that she will soon be back on Kannada TV to entertain the viewers again with a new project. However, she did not reveal anything about her upcoming venture.
