Recently there were reports stating Shefali Jariwala will be stepping into the shoes of Saumya Tandon in Bhabhiji Ghar Par Hain, as she has decided to quit the show due to the ongoing pandemic. However, soon after the news started making rounds on the internet, Shefali Jariwala came in forward and denied her involvement in the show. Shefali said, "It’s not at all true. I really don’t know how my name came into the picture when there has been no discussion at all". On the other hand, a source close to the production revealed, "Saumya has apprehensions on coming to the set and shooting in the pandemic as her kid is very young and she is concerned about her health. But she hasn’t decided to quit the show. In fact, Saumya will start shooting again by the end of this week". A few days Saumya’s personal hairdresser was found COVID positive due to which the show makers advised her to take some days off. However other cast and crew members were allowed to shoot in her absence. The producer of the show even visited the sets to ensure the proper measures are being taken.
