Ajay Balhara in Star One's Kya Yahi Pyar Hai

Star one and Cinevistaa's forthcoming show, another love story titled Kya Yahi Pyar Hai, (loosely based on Hollywood flick Maid in Manhattan), will feature Ajay Balhara as parallel lead.

Finally, the channel and production house has zeroed in on their female lead, and it is new comer Aditi who's debuting with this show. As reported earlier, Siddharth Shukla of Babul Ka Aangann fame will essay the role of the male lead.

Ajay Balhara who was earlier seen in Imagine's Radha Ki Betiyaan Kuch Kar Dikhyayengi confirms the news and says, "Yes, I will be portraying the character of Rajdeep, a General Manager of the hotel. He is a very charming, suave and well-educated fellow who always carries a smile on his face. Most of the people would like him!"

According to our source, "The story basically revolves around new comer Aditi. She plays an underprivileged girl who only has her six year old nephew who she can count on. She tries to bring him up with all the love and care. But she realizes that she needs to go out and get a job to handle things financially. She gets a job in the hotel where Rajdeep aka Ajay Balhara is the General Manager and Veer aka Siddharth Shukla is the owner of the hotel. This is how the three separate lives coincide."

We spoke to Palki Malhotra, Fiction Head, Cinevistaas who said, "I cannot say anything on the show until a formal press conference is organized by the channel."

If sources are to be believed, previously, Neha Jhulka and Gunjan Walia were approached for the role of the female protagonist. But it is now bagged by newcomer Aditi. Also, the shooting will begin around next week and the show will be launched in the month of October.
