Archana Puran Singh will replace Navjot Singh Sidhu . This is the second time when Archana is replacing him in this show. Cricketer-turned-politician Sidhu commented saying, “For a handful of people, can you blame the entire nation and can you blame an individual? Nations cannot be held responsible for the dastardly acts of terrorists. The terrorists do not have deen, mazhab (sect and religion). There are good, the bad and the ugly. It (the attack) is a cowardly act and I condemn it firmly. Violence is always condemnable and those who did it must be punished.” Post Siddhu’s comment on Pulwama attack, social media criticized him and demanded his removal from the show. "His remarks have not been taken kindly by most. Also, the channel and the show was getting dragged into the unwanted controversy. This is when the team amicably decided that Navjot make a distance from the show. The team has already shot a couple of episodes with Archana," reported Indian Express. According to sources, "the channel is very particular about its credibility. Last year when Anu Malik's name came in #MeToo moment, the channel took a stand and he was immediately shown the door outside. The same action is being taken against Navjot Singh Sidhu. His comment on terror attack is not acceptable. That's why the channel has asked him to resign from the show."
