The stars aligned for Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai at the Indian Telly Awards as fan-favourite duo Rohit Purohit and Samriddhi Shukla walked away with accolades that celebrated their hard work, passion, and fan power. At a glittering post-award celebration, the two shared heartfelt notes of gratitude—and their messages lit up social media with warmth, emotion, and unity.
Rohit Purohit’s Humble Gratitude Wins Hearts
Rohit Purohit, who plays the intense and layered character of Armaan, clinched the Fan Favourite Actor title. The win wasn’t just personal—it was communal. Rather than spotlighting his individual achievement, Rohit turned the lens onto his fans. “This is our win,” he wrote, emotionally acknowledging every vote and message that made the moment possible.
Moreover, his tribute extended to the show’s creative visionaries. He lauded YRKKH’s powerhouse behind-the-scenes squad—Rajan Shahi, Rishi Mandial, Raam Pandey, Romesh Kalra—and his co-actors, calling them the “strength” behind each scene. His praise was generous yet focused.
The most touching part, however, was his nod to wife Sheena Bajaj. Rohit credited her belief, sacrifices, and endless support, saying, “This award is YOURS more than mine.” By ending with a note to the audience—“Armaan is yours as much as he is mine”—he reinforced why he truly deserves the title of fan favourite.
Samriddhi Shukla Embraces the Queen Life
Samriddhi Shukla, who embodies the leading lady with strength and charm, echoed similar sentiments. Her caption glowed with appreciation and camaraderie. From the beginning, she made one thing clear—success is sweeter when shared.
She expressed immense gratitude to Rajan Shahi for not only trusting her with a legacy role but also for creating a nurturing environment on set. Her words—“Built to lead. Wired to win. Together, we’re unstoppable”—weren’t just motivational; they reflected her journey.
Furthermore, she acknowledged directors Rishi Mandial, Raam Pandey, and Romesh Kalra with heartfelt thanks. Their guidance, she noted, helped unlock both her performance and joy in the process. By crediting the “dream team,” Samriddhi emphasized that collective effort fuels individual growth.
The posts featured snapshots from a post-award bash—complete with trophies in hand and smiles all around. Among the comments, one stood out: Rahul Sharma, who plays Anshuman in the show, publicly congratulated Rohit with warmth and pride. The camaraderie among cast members didn’t just exist in front of the camera—it thrived behind it too. The success of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai lies in more than its TRPs or long-running legacy. It thrives because of the people who pour love into every frame—actors, crew, and fans alike.
