'Ekta’s Kasturi gets a new life!'-article

Looks like the K factor will continue to rock on Star Plus for a long time to come.So much so that even post KBC (sometime in April) the channel has already zeroed on Ekta Kapoor's Kasturi in the 9. 30 slot. Interestingly, this show has been in the pipeline for a long time and it promises to be a rather ambitious project.

A source from the channel, on condition of anonymity reveals, "Kasturi is at the scripting stage. Earlier on it was supposed to be in the afternoon slot, but we don't want too many changes too soon. So the show will be in the same slot as Karam Apnaa Apnaa." As of now, Karam… will soon be pushed in the 8 pm slot on Star One with KBC occupying the primetime slot on it's home channel.

Meanwhile on the Kasturi front, it's probably going to be a love triangle and sources reveal that Sanjit Bedi has been roped in as the second lead. Because of production delays, many who were earlier a part of the show have also decided to call it quits, one of them being Rajat Bedi. The production house is now hunting for the lead and a lot of Balaji loyalists are being considered for it. Saket Sawhney, who has handled many Balaji shows in the past, is handling this project.
