In an interview with India Today, Jitendra Kumar, who has impressed the audiences with multiple versatile roles, revealed that when such news came out and he saw it all over social media, there was a lot of panic. He said, “The last season ended on Abhishek's transfer and that also spurred the buzz further. There was a misunderstanding, and honestly, main bhi pareshan ho jata tha (I would get troubled) answering the same questions.”
"At one point, I was like aur mat poochon, bandh karo yeh (don't ask about it, end it now),” the Jaadugar actor added.
Jitendra Kumar, who is seen reprising his role as Sachiv Ji in Panchayat Season 3, also added that as he had already started shooting for the third season of the show, the rumours did not affect him much.
