Karan Wahi Recalls Backlash After Replacing Karan Singh Grover in Dill Mill Gayye
Actor Karan Wahi recalled facing significant backlash when he replaced Karan Singh Grover in the 2009 television show Dill Mill Gayye. Fans initially rejected Wahi, criticizing him for taking over Grover's role and even damaging his car's windshield. The rivalry intensified due to Wahi's pairing with Jennifer Winget, Grover's then-partner. Despite early hostility, Wahi said the audience gradually accepted him within a few months before Grover returned to the show.
