Ronit Roy to replace Sudhanshu Pandey in Anupamaa: Report
In an earlier interview with Screen, Pandey said, "The reason why I announced my exit on social media was because I felt responsible towards my audience. For those who were wondering where Vanraj had gone, I had to tell them that I was not going to be a part of the show. I didn't want them to be later shocked or heartbroken. At least I told them personally, and they didn't come to know from other sources."

Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway Were 15 Minutes Away From Manhattan Tower Where Gunman Killed 4
Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway were filming The Devil Wears Prada 2 near a deadly mass shooting in Midtown Manhattan. Gunman Shane Tamura killed four before dying by suicide. Oscar winners Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway were shooting scenes for The Devil Wears Prada 2 just 15 minutes away from the Midtown Manhattan skyscraper where a deadly mass shooting took place on Monday. The cast was working at 1221 Avenue of the Americas and had wrapped filming at least three hours before gunman Shane Devon Tamura entered 345 Park Avenue, opened fire, and killed four people before dying by suicide. Miranda Priestly and Andy Sachs are filming their upcoming comedy drama The Devil Wears Prada 2. As Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway reprise their iconic roles in the second instalment of the movie, directed by David Frankel, they have already been spotted shooting on location in New York City. The horror unfolded just a few blocks away. A man who killed four people, then committed suicide in a New York skyscraper, may have been targeting the NFL offices there because he blamed the American football league for brain injuries he said he suffered, Mayor Eric Adams said on Tuesday. The revelation that the killer, identified as 27-year-old Shane Tamura, carried a note referring to the degenerative brain disease chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), offered the first possible motive for the shootings that brought central Manhattan to a standstill. The attacker shot a police officer outside the tower on Park Avenue, then opened fire in the lobby, before trying to head up to the National Football League's offices, armed with a semi-automatic rifle. 'The note said that he felt he had CTE, a known brain injury for those who participated in contact sports. He appeared to have blamed the NFL for his injury," Adams told CBS News. Tamura had never actually played for the professional league but was reportedly a high school football standout in California. The note asked that his brain be examined for CTE damage, The New York Times reported. The bloodshed sparked a massive police response in the heart of the city which is not far from where a disgruntled gunman had shot and killed the CEO of UnitedHealthcare in broad daylight last December. New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Tamura had a history of mental health issues. President Donald Trump on Tuesday called the mass shooting a 'senseless act of violence" carried out by a 'lunatic". view comments First Published: July 29, 2025, 21:37 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
