Zaynah to play Antara..

The wait is finally over, as the channel and production house have found their perfect kid to play the special child in Zee's upcoming show, Aapki Antara, produced by Drishthant Productions!!

As it was reported earlier, the promos on air showed a different girl Apple Reetoria Rishi as the central character. But it was heard that the production house and channel were looking for more options.

According to our source, "The wait is over now, and a little girl by name Zaynah will be seen as Antara in the show. There will be two more kids who will be important to the story line; one will be Antara's elder brother and the other a kid living in the same society. The boys to play the two roles will be Arav Velhal and Raj Simaria. All the kids are relatively fresh to television, and have been part of few ads".

The show has Prabhleen Sandhu, Darshan, Sujata Kumar playing pivotal roles.

We tried calling Producer Monish Sekhri, but he replied with a text message that he is busy in a meeting.

If sources are to be believed, Antara plays an autistic child in the show. However, when we had earlier raised this question to the producer, he had rubbished this.

The show launches on Zee TV on June 1st, at the 8.30 PM slot..
