It has been nearly two months since the tragic incident on the sets of the show, Ali Baba: Dastaan-E-Kabul, when actress Tunisha Sharma committed suicide.

Earlier, the makers had decided not to go for a replacement and aired a different track in the show after the bank of episodes ran out. Now, the character of Miriam that Tunisha played before her demise has been offered to Manul Chudasama. The titular role was played by Sheezan Khan, who is currently in judicial custody for alleged charge of abetment to suicide. He was earlier replaced by Abhishek Nigam.

Manul was last seen in Brij Ke Gopal. She said, “I will bring a fresh perspective to the character. I can never replace Tunisha as Mariam.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
