Ek K baad…

Ekta Kapoor talks about her new 'family show' which will replace Kasautii Zindagii Kay Back to Section Stories Posted On Saturday, December 08, 2007

Vickey Lalwani Ekta Kapoor After much speculation, it is final that Ekta Kapoor's Kasautii Zindagii Kay, one of the channel drivers on Star Plus, will be pulled off air. But Ekta has nothing to lose as she retains the 9.30 pm slot! The last episode of Kasautii will be telecast on January 17 and will be replaced by Ekta's, yet untitled, new show from January 20. Ekta confirms and says, "Kasautii... is coming to an end. My new show is a love story set against a family background." According to our sources, Shweta Tiwari's (Prerna of Kasautii...) nakhras are largely responsible for Kasautii being wrapped up. Says creative head Doris Dey, "Well, there were certain issues with some artistes. But that's not the reason why Kasautii... is going off air. It was a creative decision taken in the best interest of the show." Doris, who is also the creative head on the new show, gives a peek into the story, "The story is based on the families of two friends. One friend stays in Punjab, while the other stays in London. We are looking at Deepak Qazir to play the man in London, and we have chosen Virendra Saxena (who played Mona Singh's father in Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin) to essay the role of the head of the family in Ambala." While Ekta is scouting for a fresh face to play the female lead, she has roped in Apoorva Agnihotri to play one of the two male leads. Says Doris, "We are in talks with Apoorva. The slot for the second male lead is still vacant. The heroine will be played by a new girl. We are auditioning many new girls. The show will go on the floors in the next ten days." The new Balaji will be shot in Ambala, London and Mumbai.

Well, I am glad she admitted it!!!!!!! 😳 😳

lols i guess she means that shweta missed rehersals or soemthing

well finally ekta herself is confirming it

Shweta has family issues and there have been many rumours that she arrives late for shootings etc.
The new show replacing KZK looks kind of interesting.

my wish is that cezanne will shoot for the last episode

ok arent all her shows have a family base? how does that make it diff??


thanx for postin!

First of all, all her stories are family base.

This new show sounds boring and im not a huge fan of Apoorva. Nobody can replace the effort, talent and hardwork

Shweta
Ronit
Cezzane
Hiten

These artists are being replaced by Apoorva. That is a joke. Apoorva is a joke compared to them.

well its a new show and it sounds ok well kinda 😕 well we will have to see and find out and hopefully they will shoot a mega episode with MANOJ n TINA in it 😳 😳 😳

It cannot and will never be better than Kasauti.

Ahem, I think before directing personal comments towards actors which should consider even with great actors this show is nothing. Like human beings the show has degraded over time. It isn't as popular as it used to be. Once upon a time there was no show that could beat the top star shows. Today it is struggling to maintain the top spot. What is the point, even if it has good actors? Remember Apurva won the best actor award when he was acting in JJKN. He has a huge fan following, exactly what Star Plus needs at the moment. For me the actors you mentioned are balaji camp actors, loyal to Ekta. These actors will probably more balaji shows. Whereas Apurva is a non balaji actor and will probably only do one balaji show. So testing isn't a bad idea! 😊
