She further added, "This was one of the many K series shows that I grew up watching. And little did I know then that I would be a part of it in the near future. Well, we both (Shweta and me) are different actors and there might be a difference in the way we portray one character. But yes, I did my basic homework on Prerna."
For the uninitiated ones, Shaheer Sheikh and Erica Fernandes were rumoured to be dating. In an earlier interview, a source talked about Erica and Shaheer’s chemistry and stated, "It's not easy to shoot with these two. They are very good with each other one moment, they fight the next moment. Every day their equation with respect to each other changes. They have been having a very rocky relationship since the longest time but now it's telling on our nerves. Nobody likes so much of inconsistency and unpredictability."
But by the end of 2017, there were rumours that Erica has apparently broken up with Shaheer due to his infidelity. Erica, who got upset with such rumours decided to openly talk about it on social media. She shared a picture with Shaheer, and captioned it, “I would finally want to break my silence here on all that I hear and see and come across on SNS. This is a humble request to please stop making accusations at the cost of ones character. The relationship we both share is that of friendship and I do not want anyone insulting it or putting false claims to it. Cooking up stuff, defaming someone and insulting someone publicly just to fill spaces, get hits and sell stories is very disrespectful. Therefore I request to stop posting unethical stuff which is far from reality. Thanks” (Also Read: Sumeet Vyas And Ekta Kaul's Official Wedding Invitation Is Out, 15 Days To Go For The D-Day)
