A source close to the actor reveals that the actor was feeling that since he is playing Kartik for so long, it will limit the kind of roles that will come his way in the future. Therefore, quitting the show came at the right time. Mohsin had started reaching out to various producers almost 6-8 months ago. He had kept producer Rajan Shahi in the know of his plans and everything went on smoothly, with his exit making way for a new storyline which only takes the Star Plus show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai to a new, exciting level.

The source revealed that Mohsin and Rajan Shahi have plans for another slice-of-life family drama that the producer is planning and Mohsin will have an important and powerful part in that. However, things are at a nascent stage right now. But what is definitely happening is a couple of OTT projects. “Mohsin has been an avid consumer of content on OTT and has been impressed with the kind of movies and web series that are being made on digital. He feels that doing an OTT project next will help him detach from the Kartik image and showcase his versatility. So that is something that’s on his priority right now.” Also Read - Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Producer Rajan Shahi moved to tears on Shivangi Joshi's last day; says, 'Have never come across a human and dedicated actor like you'
