Preetika Rao, who became a familiar face on Indian television through her lead role in the show Beintehaa, is once again in the spotlight. But this time, it’s not for her work. The actress, who starred opposite Harshad Arora in the popular series, recently reacted strongly to a fan post that shared romantic scenes from the show.
While fans have always admired their chemistry and continue to celebrate it online, Preetika is no longer comfortable being associated with those on-screen moments. A particular fan page posted clips featuring intimate scenes between her and Harshad from Beintehaa. What followed was an unexpected outburst from the actress.
Preetika lashed out at the fan page, expressing anger and frustration. She made it clear that she had already asked fans not to share such content. Yet, her request had been ignored, and that stirred emotions she could no longer hold back.
The situation intensified when Preetika made a serious personal accusation against her former co-star. She accused Harshad of having inappropriate relationships within the entertainment industry. Her post read, “For putting these videos on your page when I have repeatedly requested you not to post my videos with a man who sleeps with every women he finds in the industry!”
She told the fan page that they were acting against her inner will. She warned them that they would eventually face the consequences of this. “Pls note: You are doing something AGAINST THE WISH of my Soul! The KARMA is yours!!!! Face it !!!” she wrote with intensity.
Preetika also pointed out that the romantic moments between her and Harshad were a tiny fraction of what the show portrayed. She said it hurt her to see those moments being amplified when they were only part of the script. She added, “In Beintehaa out of 95% of no touch & we had 5% of such scenes, and you are blasting this all throughout against my wishes! SHAME on YOU Mark My Words You are taking upon yourself a Very Serious Karma!”
Since Beintehaa ended, Preetika and Harshad have not appeared together in any project. Their off-screen relationship has remained a mystery, and now it seems there is no connection left between them. They do not follow each other on social media, which further confirms the distance.
While the scenes in Beintehaa may have been fictional, the impact they’ve had on the actors is very real. Preetika’s voice this time wasn’t part of a script. It was raw, personal, and deeply felt.
