Jay Productions' Baali Umar Ko Salaam, the story tracing the innocence of first love and the romantic journey of a young girl Naina was to take-off on NDTV Imaginebefore the strike in November 2008, but unfortunately has not seen the light even now.

With the channel all set for a revamp of its programs in the New Year, the future of Baali Umar was uncertain. According to the buzz, there were chances of the show coming on air sometime in March 2009. But now, our reliable source from the production house confirms that, "The show has been scrapped from the channel. Even the sets that was erected has been brought down. This clearly indicates that the show is not happening anymore".

We contacted Kinnari Mehta of Jay Productions, but she clearly said, "We have no idea about this, as we have not been intimated by the channel".

When we messaged Shailja Kejriwal, EVP - Content, NDTV Imagine, she replied back saying, "The show is not happening now".

The show had Ankita Lokhande and Jay Soni playing the lead roles, and with them were Neha Desai and Lavina Tandon.

Well, this certainly looks like curtains down for the promising show!!
