Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar returned to television with the Indian version of the world-famous US show Wheel of Fortune, creating strong buzz initially. Now that it is going off air, reports are rife that the show is ending due to TRP struggles. However, that is not correct. The production house and channel have confirmed that Wheel Of Fortune is going off air because it has run its course for the season one. Meanwhile, Rajeev Khandelwal is all set to step in with a new show replacing Akshay's show, marking his comeback to TV after many years.
Akshay Kumar’s Show Wheel Of Fortune To Go Off-Air
Some reports claimed recently that Akshay Kumar's game show, Wheel of Fortune, is going off-air. However, an exclusive source close to the production has cleared the air, stating that the show is not being cancelled but just coming to an end.
It is going off-air simply because the current season has reached its natural conclusion. As the season wraps up, the show is scheduled to go off-air by the end of this month. Fans can rest easy knowing that the decision is part of the standard seasonal cycle and has nothing to do with the show's performance or viewership numbers.
