Samridhii Shukla did an EXCLUSIVE interview with LatestLY, during which she spoke about a number of issues. We asked about Shehzada Dhami's statement that touching the feet of the top producer is mandatory on the sets. Samridhii Shukla told us, "Rajan Sir has given people on the sets employment for seven to eight years, and some even for 15 years. Yes, there are people who touch his feet when he enters the sets of his show, but this is purely out of respect. He has provided them with a stable livelihood and made their lives. They show their sentiments in that manner. This includes technicians and hair and make-up artists. But there is no compulsion on any star/actor to touch his feet. This is not there."  Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Rajan Shahi Removes Shehzada Dhami, Pratiksha Honmukhe From the Show Due to Misbehaviour on the Sets.
