Ssudeep Sahir to exit Parineetii ahead of 20-year time leap
Ssudeep Sahir
Ssudeep Sahir
, who became a part of
Parineetii
in March, is all set to bid farewell to the show. His track is nearing its conclusion as the series prepares for a significant 20-year leap. While other cast changes are yet to be officially confirmed, Ssudeep's exit has been finalised.
A source associated with the show informed us, 'Yes, Ssudeep's track is ending, and he will wrap up his shoot soon. His portrayal of Prithvi, a sharp and shrewd businessman, was well received by the audience and added a strong layer of intrigue to the narrative. However, with the upcoming leap, we felt it was time to take a step forward and explore a new storyline that offers fresh dynamics.'
Ssudeep remained unavailable for comment.
In an earlier conversation with us, reflecting on his role, Ssudeep had shared, 'It feels great to be back with Parineetii, a show that has consistently captivated audiences with its gripping storytelling. What made this project particularly special for me was the opportunity to portray a grey-shaded character for the first time. Prithvi is unlike any role I've played before — he's unpredictable, layered, enigmatic, and carries an aura of command and mystery.
As a businessman, he is strategic and calculated in his decisions, always playing his cards close to the chest. But beneath that sharp exterior lies a man deeply driven by vengeance. I was genuinely excited for the audience to experience the many twists and turns he brought to the show.'
Parineetii features
Anchal Sahu
,
Tanvi Dogra
, and
Ankur Verma
in the lead roles. Ssudeep's entry into the show marked his return to the small screen after a three-year hiatus following his performance in Tera Yaar Hoon Main. He was particularly enthusiastic about joining Parineetii because it gave him the chance to break away from his string of positive roles and explore a more complex, grey-shaded character.
Ssudeep began his acting journey in 2003 with Kyun Hota Hai Pyaarrr and has since been a part of several notable shows, including Ayushmaan, Jabb Love Hua, Santaan, Main Lakshmi Tere Aangan Ki, Shastri Sisters, and Woh Apna Sa.

This trip to Switzerland marked the first time that their sons traveled in business class. In the video, Ayushmaan revealed that it was his and Aaryamann's first trip in business class. 'Guys, me and Aaryamann are traveling in business class for the first time. So basically, our parents had a rule that they will never give us a business class ticket. They said, 'You have to earn it',' he shared. To this, Archana immediately interrupted and said, 'And now, you have earned it'. Parmeet also congratulated his sons and said, 'Well done boys.'

In a conversation with Rashmi Uchil for her book Raising Stars: The Challenges and Joys of Being A Bollywood Parent, Soni spoke about an incident when she could not buy three business class tickets when she was traveling with her daughters, Alia and Shaheen, to Dubai. 'Once, we were travelling to Dubai and could not afford three business-class tickets. I told my children, 'I will travel first class, and you guys travel economy.' They made a face. When I went to check on them, I saw the lady in the seat right in front of them had reclined her seat, and these children had hardly any space in front of them. I told my children, 'Why don't you ask her to straighten her seat? Are you guys okay?' They were miffed and retorted, 'Why are you asking us how we are doing? We will not tell her anything.' The lady in front of them was a senior citizen and they felt bad telling her to straighten her seat. It wasn't a big deal at all,' she said.
