Aishwarya Sharma is reportedly poised to embark on a new chapter in her career, potentially headlining Ekta Kapoor's upcoming YouTube series, following reports of her separation from actor Neil Bhatt. The news arrives amidst swirling rumors of a divorce between Sharma and Bhatt, who tied the knot in 2021 and were celebrated as one of television's admired couples after sharing screen space in "Ghum Hain Kisikey Pyaar Meiin". Reports suggest that the couple decided to part ways due to irreconcilable differences after nearly four years of marriage.
While neither Sharma nor Bhatt has directly addressed the divorce rumors, the situation has kept them in the public eye. News reports surfaced in November 2025, citing an insider who claimed the couple had been living separately for a while and had officially filed for divorce, with formalities expected to commence soon.
Amidst this personal upheaval, Sharma is reportedly in talks to play the lead in Kapoor's new show, a project that signals Kapoor's continued expansion into digital content. The series is being developed specifically for Balaji's YouTube platform and is expected to follow a long format structure, focusing on character driven storytelling. Sources indicate that the makers are keen on casting her as the face of the show. The role being considered for Sharma is said to have strong emotional layers and broad audience appeal.
Adding to the speculation, Varun Vijae, known for his roles in shows like "Sasural Simar Kaa" and "Anupamaa," is rumored to be a contender for the male lead opposite Sharma. However, there has been no official confirmation regarding the cast, storyline, or release timeline.
The potential casting follows Sharma facing online criticism, with some accusing her of bullying on set. Sharma responded to these accusations via Instagram, calling out the trolls.
Earlier in 2025, after rumors about her separation emerged, Sharma slammed the speculations stating that she has been silent not because she's weak, but because she's been protecting her peace. She further added that she has not given any interviews, statements, or recordings and asked to stop spreading news in her name.
Despite the attention surrounding her personal life, Sharma has remained focused on her career. The actress has not publicly commented on the status of her marriage.
