Talking about the same, Ashi said: “I have been a part of this beautiful show since its inception and I couldn’t have been more grateful. The show has taught me a lot of meaningful things, and teachings of life. It has given me immense love, and the kind of warmth I have received from the fans, it's unparalleled.”

“We have hit 750 plus episodes and it can be said that it was a rollercoaster ride, with loads of emotions. And now, I am saying goodbye with a heavy heart because I will miss each and every person associated with this show,” she shared.

Ashi added: “I am very content with my journey from Meet to Sumeet, as I have given more than my 100 percent, and have received loads of love from all.”

Syed shared: “The show ‘Meet’ will always be special and close to my heart as it is my debut show on television. The show had its successful run for two years and I am glad that I got the opportunity to be part of it.”

“Even though my journey with the show was for only five months, I have learned countless things from each and every person on set. I will miss the fun I had while shooting and will cherish the bond I have made in this show,” he said.
