"I was offered the role of Shabd in Maayka"-Ajay Krish.

Its been very sad. We're all missing Neha and Krishu.. Krish is the cutest kid I've ever seen. He's grown up in front of us. On the last day of his shoot, I came on the set, Krishu ran towards me and gave me a hug. I actually broke down that day. And about Neha, well, she's made her choice. She needed a break. We all took breaks in between. Neha was the only one working from day one.

Its only me and Andy on the sets from the previous generation. Everyone else is new. Even the creative team changed again. It will take a while to adjust with everyone.

Neha and I got along well. There was great understanding between us. Our chemistry as actors clicked well, which made things easy. As fas as Narayani is concerned, she is a fabulous actress, we will have to work on re-creating Sid and Mamta chemistry as I haven't worked with her before. But I am sure that in due course of time, we will work things out.

The story had its share of flaws. Mamta's, Akshay's and Sid's character were butchered. Akshay and Sid were negative and then positive again. Sid was completely lost after his return. He didn't know what to do, he didn't know what was going on. He became negative and then positive and had his share of love interests, but then was always a loner in the end.

(laughter) well, Sid was married early too. But yes, he is settled now. I pity that guy, first he had Mamta, then Anamilka, then Masuma, then Mamta again. Its been one roller coaster for him.

Oh gosh, I am so paranoid with that. The media has been linking me up with everyone. First Neha and then Neha Marda who was playing my sister, and then Masuma. I wasn't linked up with Anamika, well may be because she was on for a short time. But yea, I don't know where people cook up stories from, I wouldn't be surprised if some channel links me up with the girl who is playing my daughter in the show. (laughter )

May be end of this year or starting of next year. (Pause)

I am not going to reveal more than that right now.

It is difficult. Playing a father to a little boy like Krish was easy. I am trying hard to play a grown up guy. I've tried to work with my appearance on screen and trying to act like a father.

Well, I am talking to a few people right now. I cant really talk about it till things are confirmed. But yea, I guess it wouldn't be wrong to talk about this that I was offered the role of Shabd in Maayka. But the reason I opted out was that it was the same channel. Production houses manage the dates well with two shows running, but when it comes to different production houses, dates clash and it just gets messed up. I've seen my co actors facing that problem, so decided to opt out of it.

Well, my most favourite is the scene before the accident, where I hand over Mamta's hand to Akshay and the temple scene with Mamta during Sid and Mamta's trip to Pune.

Ha, no way. We all get along fine. Anand and I have never had any issues whatsoever. And with the production house too. Come on ya, there are arguments here and there whereever you work, but the way a few newspapers have put it, it has been completely blown out of proportion.

Yea, I was really not sure. Infact this my first interview regarding the leap. I wanted to be a part of the leap, only if the story is promising. And as far the story is acceptable, everything's cool.

Where is Masuma - No idea

Is she coming back - I honestly don't know

Who was shot in the fight sequence before the leap -
No clue. Well, Sid and Akshay are on TV, so we aren't shot, don't know if they killed Masuma or she'll be back.

Why was Mamta in and out of Sid's house more than five times in two weeks? -
that's the story, like I said, her character hit rock bottom.

Well, we are not done yet as Ajay Krish has sent an Exclusive Message to his fans in India Forums...

Sadly, Ajay Krish does not seem to be enchanted with the way the story is progressing or playing a father to a 20 year old. We only hope that the creative team now really work to come up with a stellar storyline. We wish all the best to this suave actor for his upcoming projects.
