Bhumi Pednekar has exited Netflix's 'The Royals' as the show transitions from a romantic comedy to a family drama. This change comes as the creators aim to focus on the royal family's dynamics, featuring actors Ishaan Khatter, Zeenat Aman, and Sakshi Tanwar. A source revealed that the decision was made organically, with no conflicts involving Pednekar. Following her departure, she is set to take on more complex roles, including a troubled cop in the upcoming season of Amazon Prime Video's 'Daldal' and co-starring with Imran Khan in his anticipated Netflix comeback film. 'The Royals', which centers on an erstwhile royal family, was one of Netflix's most-watched shows in 2025, despite mixed reviews. As of now, there are no updates regarding the returning cast or the release date for the second season.
