August 30, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Ashita Dhawan who is very well known as Malti Bhabhi of Rajan Shahi's 'Bidaai' on Star Plus in a recent talk owed her fame to Rajan Shahi as she says he is the only guy to get the credit for it. When asked the reason, Ashita very proudly says, "Today wherever I go, I get recognized as Malti and not by any other character of mine which I have essayed before years. And I should not forget that the chance to essay a noticeable character like Malti Bhabhi was given to me by Rajan Ji."

"Today many people call me up, they contact me, they take my interviews and they give me love and attention, why? Just because the man had given me such a kind of role that everyone recognizes me. I have done many daily soap and reality shows before but no one was recognizing me as Ashita Dhawan. But after doing Malti Bhahi of 'Bidaai', I made a different identity in the society." adds overwhelmed Ashita.

So if some one offers you a show with good storyline, would you leave 'Bidaai'? "No, never, not on any cost, because as I said 'Bidaai' is my identity and I owe my fame to Rajan Shahi."

That's very honest of you Ashita, Good luck!
