Kasauti Zindagii Kii (Star Plus) will take a giant, 20-year leap, early next week. As part of this, five new characters will be added to the show.
Sneha, Tanisha, Kasak, Abhinav and Vivan will play the new generation characters.
Post-leap, Anurag (Cezzane Khan) and Prerna (Shweta Tiwari) will be seen in a more mature look.
While Anurag sports glasses and gels his hair back, Prerna wears her hair in a bun and will be seen more in sarees and ethnic blouses. Mr Bajaj (Ronit Roy) will have less pepper and more salt in his already greying hair.
Senior deputy Creative Director, Nivedita Basu says, "This leap marks a very important point in Kasauti. Even though the focus shifts to the young lot, Anurag and Prerna's love story will never fade out.
With the entry of these new faces, there will be lots happening in terms of their individual tracks.
Each character has a unique history and their energies will add spunk to the show.
"For example, Vivan, who is shown as Tanisha's cousin, is a boxing champion. His character is quite colourful and brings in a different shade to the story."
But what about Mr Bajaj — will he be overshadowed by so many characters? "No way, he is a very strong character, and of primary importance to the story. His undying love for Prerna will see an interesting turn in days to come," says Basu. | He is Debu and Aparna's, son but stays with Anurag.
He is a total goofball, and loves eating and sleeping.
Anurag adopts him, but Shravan refers to him as uncle. | | | Kasak (Surveen Chawla) She is Prerna and Bajaj's daughter and stays with them. Very ambitious, she is a go-getter. She's shown wearing suits and corporate attire at times. Sports is her favourite pastime. She is an all rounder, who also excels in studies. | | Sneha (Jennifer) The eldest, she is Anurag and Prerna's biological daughter, but lives with Prerna and Bajaj. Since she is Anurag's daughter, punctuality comes to her naturally. She is a die hard romantic at heart and loves her parents dearly. | | Tanisha ( Shubha Verma) Tanisha is Kasak's close friend. Her look is very western and trendy. She loves sports and her attire and accessories are carefully matched. She has an interesting past, which will be revealed later. | | seems from the above info that Tanisha is bajaj-madhvi's daughter. what say? |
