Coronation Street has revealed how it's going to write Jimmi Harkishin's break into the ITV show, as Dev Alahan will have family matters to attend to.
Upcoming episodes will see Dev leaving Weatherfield with his children temporarily to travel to India in order to visit his dying uncle.
Originally, Dev plans to go to India by himself, but he later becomes angry at his daughter Asha (Tanisha Gorey) after she goes to a party against his wishes.
It's not the first time in recent weeks that Dev has struggled with his daughter's behaviour after she was previously caught skipping an exam.
As a result, Mary Taylor (Patti Clare) then recommends bringing Asha and Aadi (Zennon Ditchett) with him abroad.
Dev agrees and leaves Evelyn Plummer (Maureen Lipman) running his store.
What to Read Next
Harkishin previously confirmed that he would be taking a two-month break, explaining that he plans to celebrate 20 years at the ITV soap by going on holiday.
"Corrie bosses have very kindly let me have time off for two months to celebrate my 20th year, which I am very grateful for, so I am going to visit China and Japan," he said in April.
Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights on ITV.
