Vaibhavi scores 85.33% in spite of personal tragedy
Pune: At a time when her father's inhuman death was headlining different narratives in the political corridors of the state and the Centre besides people converging at her village and home, Vaibhavi Deshmukh, daughter of Santosh Deshmukh, remained focussed to appear for the Class 12 exams. Her father, the Massajog sarpanch, was allegedly abducted, brutally tortured, and eventually murdered on December 9, 2024. According to the police, the murder took place after Deshmukh confronted people who were allegedly trying to extort money from a windmill company at the firm's premises. With 85.33 per cent in the Science stream in HSC Class 12 exams conducted by the state board from February 11 to March 11, Vaibhavi has showed grit grappling with the grief of her father's untimely and tragic death. Deshmukh's murder had sent shockwaves across Maharashtra, triggering both political and social unrest. As the case unfolded and garnered public attention, so did the story of Vaibhavi's perseverance. Her subject-wise scores include 63 in English, 83 in Marathi, 94 in Mathematics, 83 in Physics, 91 in Chemistry, and 98 in Biology. Despite not being able to prepare better for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Undergraduate (NEET) exams due to her involvement in ongoing legal and justice-seeking efforts with her uncle Dhananjay Deshmukh, she did not allow adversity to derail her board exam performance. 'My father would have been proud of my Class 12 results. I appeared for the NEET exam held yesterday, but I don't expect a high score. I demand death penalty for those who murdered my father and arrest of an accused still at large,' she said. Deputy chief minister Eknath Shinde said, 'After losing father, Santosh Deshmukh, Vaibhavi overcame immense emotional and social challenges to score 85.13% in her exams. Her success is more than just academic — a symbol of strength, resilience, and hope.' Baramati MP Supriya Sule said, 'Vaibhavi Deshmukh, the brave daughter of the late Santosh Deshmukh of Massajog, has achieved remarkable success in her Class 12 exams under extremely adverse circumstances. Her triumph is truly inspirational. Heartfelt congratulations and best wishes for her future journey.'

Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin actor Vaibhavi Hankare on being replaced by Bhavika Sharma: It's incorrect to…
Actor Vaibhavi Hankare has exited the TV show Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin. Reportedly, due to low ratings, the makers have rejigged the story and cast the former lead, actor Bhavika Sharma, opposite actor Param Singh. Vaibhavi, who entered the show in February, is a bit upset with the way things unfolded. A source from the channel shares, 'The makers feel bringing in Vaibhavi didn't resonate well with the audience, especially the loyal fan base who have been enjoying the show for five years now. The team had no option but to end her role and work on bringing back Bhavika Sharma, who was the lead of the show last year. The option of rejigging the cast was better or else they would have had to end the show." Talking to us, Vaibhavi shares that it's a mere assumption that she was shown the door due to low TRPs. 'A wrong message is being spread, and I had no choice but to state my perspective. My role was introduced as a new entry in the show. I gave my everything to the role of Tejaswini and played it to the best of my ability." Vaibhavi adds that she has taken the change in her stride, 'It is sad to end my role on such an abrupt note, but that's the nature of our work. We don't always get to decide how long we will stay or if the show will work or not.' Actor Bhavika Sharma remained unavailable for comment on her reentry into the show.
