As some people have already pointed out, Mr. Bajaj was probably the first anti-hero in Indian TV serial world, He did a lot of shady things but he still managed to not fall in the black category. He was vindictive and manipulative without being sleazy. Ronit Roy brought the complex character to life. He did a lot of frustrating things, but we just couldn't hate him. Also, from what I remember, Anurag from KZK1 was a good person but he was spineless. Bajaj on the other hand never lacked a spine. He never wavered in his decisions and was steadfast in his support for Prerna.

Komolika was very stylish and entertaining in all her villainy prowess. We hated to love her and loved to hate her. It was amusing how she used to kaan-bharaao all the characters to create tamasha.

Also noteworthy are the dialogues given to these two. I feel like the writers gave the best lines to Bajaj and Komolika and Ronit Roy and Urvashi Dholakia delivered them perfectly.

I don't have high hopes from this season, but I still wish that they don't miscast and butcher iconic characters like Rishabh Bajaj and Komolika.



Other reasons which i felt
1. Prerna and Mr. Bajaj had a better chemistry than Prerna Anurag

2. Even though Prerna and Bajaj have misunderstandings and fights at time i always feel they both respect each other and their relationship😳

3.But Prerna Anurag relation was like, every time Prerna got hurt because of Anurag, he doubted her, never tried to understand the truth before accusing her and i feel there was no respect and trust between them.May be love and friendship was there but it was always like taking each other for granted!!even we even lost count on how many time they slapped each other!!😆

4.Yes another reason was the BG music, BG song and dialogue of prerna n Bajaj.Which made their relation even more beautiful ❤️
5 .I love the way how Prerna calls him Mr.Bajaj

6.Ronit and Shweta just nailed these characters and gave life to these characters..You cannot at once feel there can be any one else who can play Prerna and Rishab those days.Once scene you will not find once scene where you are not able to connect with these characters.👏.
Cz was also good as anurag but the writers messed up his character and we felt he was spineless😕

KZK Season1 Prerna Mr.Bajaj always!! ❤️ and Sneha and Bajaj as Father Daughter
KZK Seanson 2. Lets see how it goes...I like the new anurag and parth is doin good..and feel they have improvised his character also...,lets wait

People loved kmolika because there was no-one on tv back then to be such stylish diva. Urvashi started wearing strapless blouses modern sarees which became rage with that heavy makeup. In Indian wedding women started copying those bold blouses. Even bw heroines weren't wearing such blouses. She dared to have different haircuts which included boy cuts. She changed the fashion game forever


moreover such scheming vamp was new thing on tv. U know kmolika wasn't bad first it was anurag who failed his marriage. Yes she got married to him but it was anyrags spinessless who couldnt take stand for prwerna.
She wanted his love. But he married her and didn't touch for a year. he Always chanted prerna prerna. So people had sympathy for her first.
Bajaj was first anti hero on tv. All these gul Heroes is r just copies of bajaj. He was anti hero he didn't need to manhandle female lead. He got what he wanted. N ronit Roy aced it. Big time.


I didnt watch KZK1 but i really impressed wt Komolika n Bajaj ... Eargerly wait for tis two character entery

Komolika was stylish queen in that era...fashion queen...she dare to bring change in style statement n set a trend...she was never a negative character in the beginning...thanks to anurag and his spineless nature with prerna jaap made her negative and also she was queen of vamp...plotting n scheming as hot season those days...she is still remembered till now...a legend...except for prerna whomever anurag marries...the ladies becomes a vamp komolika...aparna...sampada...i used to love komolika-indraneil banter...they are hilarious togther

coming to Mr Bajaj...he was the first anti hero...he was the first one to set the trend of anti hero that now other production houses copies...another anti hero was sujal from KTH...gul heroes are inspired by bajaj and sujal...rashmi sharmas shows are inspired ksbkbt n kggk...Mr Bajaj has does stuffs that he should not do but we just can't hate him at all...he was dyamic..anurag being spineless never stand or support prerna...he listens to his mom n sister alot never stood for prerna omce while Mr Bajaj supported her in her tough ties and even gave her daughter his name..sneha-bajaj were iconic father-daughter duo...i just ove their scenes together be it the little sneha or jennifer...furthermore RR brought life and soul into the character...he brought the character to a different level that its difficult to find an actor playing this dynamic character Mr Rishabh Bajaj

I agree with you word for word...esp.the bold bits. Indroneel is such as underrated character. His hilarious scenes with Komolika and daydreaming dance sequences with Mitali were so funny and entertaining 😆😆

Oh my word! I agree with each and every word you said. My sentiments exactly. Bajaj-Prerna had great chemistry, which I liked more than Anu-Prerna's. Yes Bajaj didn't play fair...but he did feel guilty for his actions. He may have done really shady things but he tried his best to rectify his mistakes without losing Prerna in the process. Bajaj did really dodgy things but the fact remains Anurag didn't trust Prerna even though she kept appealing to him. Prerna wanted Anu to love her so much that her word took precedence over "material" evidence. Anurag disappointed her in this regard. Bajaj-Prerna built a good dependable friendship over the years and their relationship is just very peaceful and understanding. Even when they have issues they tackle it with tact.

@bold: Those are my thoughts too. So far, I like his Anurag. Let's see how the character arc goes.

KZK 1 discussion made me nostalgic.
Every character had their salient features yes anurag failed many times when he was supposed to trust prerna but I don't remember any scene in which he slapped prerna. Did that happen? If yes then tell me that episode?
Basic difference acc to me was when Anurag Prerna were together, Bajaj led the soil of mistrust between them
On the contrary when Bajaj- Prerna was together, Anurag helped them in sorting differences. Otherwise Bajaj equally, rather more doubted prerna when they were together.

I am very sure you are mildly confused at this point reading all the different view points regarding Anurag-Prerna and Bajaj-Prerna, to be honest this was one of the main essence and a big reason for the longevity of the show. I don't think anyone here would disagree that the show was extremely OTT and by the time it ended had lost a lot of its charm and fann following, but in its heydays Kasautii Zindagii Kay (1) was a trend setter. One can always argue whether the trend it set were good or bad for Indian television serials is another story altogether.
Nevertheless, the reason why Komolika and Rishab Bajaj are two of the most iconic characters of Indian television, is because the actors that played them and the characters that they played were essentially the first of its kind. Despite both of these characters being various shades of grey, with various degrees of over the top behavior both Ronit Roy and Urvashi Dholakia played them with the sort of conviction that made them truly entertaining. Although, one thing must be said that despite Bajaj and Komolika's popularity while the show progressed, during the initial faze of the show it was Anurag(Cezanne) and Prerna's(Shweta Tiwary's) chemistry that pulled the audiences in. They looked awfully good together, it is one of the reasons why despite Anurag's 4 marriages and Prerna being virtually married to Mr.Bajaj throughout most of the show, the serial was still about Anurag and Prerna's trials and tribulation.

As far as I am aware, Mr.Bajaj's character was initially not meant to stay in the show for that long because in the beginning, he almost came off as negative. He turned positive later on. If you look back at KZK1 now then you can call him a grey character but when he first entered, he was borderline negative. The reason why Bajaj and Prerna ended up with so much screentime and story was because Shewta Tiwari and Cezzene Khan literally hated each other and they had some issue on sets to the extent where it was being reported that they couldn't stand each others presence or even look eye to eye. It got to a point where it was difficult for them to shoot scenes together let alone any intimate scenes or romantic scenes. This was the reason that Prerna and Anurag actually never had much romance in the show after the initial phase. It was just a whole bunch of pain all throughout. As far as I know, Ekta said in an interview that "Kasauti mein bohot DARD hai". That "dard" was because her leads didn't get along so it extended the lifespan of Prerna-Bajaj and created extra pain for Anurag as it was easier for Shweta and Cezzene to avoid each other or do scenes where they are arguing. Came naturally to them.
As far as Anurag being spineless is concerned then he was spineless only when he decided to marry Komolika because of his mother. The reason was quite stupid too. His mother wasn't eating or drinking anything until he married Komolika. This better not be how it turns out in this season. I mean we already saw how Anurag this season (Parth) could play with his life and jump into blazing fire just to get a dupatta that his mother wanted for him. So basically, he values her more than his own life. But in KZK1, for this one mistake of being spineless at that moment, this guy paid the price till his last breath. He lived his entire life loving Prerna but Prerna always misunderstood him every chance she got. His life was a painful life. If that is the amount of pain that you have to tolerate for loving one person, then its better to not love at all. It wasn't even worth it because their death was also painful. In real life, it is stupid to be stuck on one person for your entire life. But Anurags entire life was Prerna I guess.

When I saw the taxi love scene between Erica and Parth on Friday and she used the Thornbird analogy saying some people die for love, I literally just shook my head. This scene is a foreshadowing of what Anurags life was actually like in season 1. He lived a life of absolute pain. He got married 4 times but never had a successful relationship. People actually started hating Prerna and sympathizing with Anurag because of what he went through. Oh and if anything went wrong, expect Prerna to blame Anurag and slap him every chance she got. Shweta and Cezzene did the slapping scenes very well. Maybe because they actually meant it. LOL.

Komolika was evil but she actually made me laugh always because she was so OTT that I couldn't help but laugh most of the times. LOL And we all know that her character was known for her fashion statments. Her sleeveless blouses, her bindi's, her sarees, her various hair lengths, cuts and styles were all statements and trend setters

Kasauti was a trend settler.
It had everything in it except story.

Pre marital sex and child out of wed lock was big thing during those days, but Prerna was the one who decided to go ahead with it.


Komolika brought the much needed fashion trend in telly land. Her sarees, blouse, hair style, attitude, expressions everything was talk of the town.


Bajaj was imperfectly perfect. Manipulating and dominating but still droolworthy.


Best part about original kasauti - there was no social media to poke nose. Watch it and forget. Now a days people don't know the difference between real and reel. They start abuse session with actors if they don't like the characters and even actors keep themselves busy talking with faceless trolls.


It was fine and good when it started. Even kamo was not completely black. She was a greedy woman who wanted everything on platter without moving a finger, but she was not into killing, cutting and chopping people. Later it was dragged to infinite years and everyone turned into abnormal shit.


Having said that, there were many blunders which remained unclosed forever. Bajaj's kaands were worst than komolika, but they never bother to expose it. He was a criminal, they tried hard to wash him with Nirma and present him completely white. To some extent they succeeded as there were many prerna-bajaj shipper.


This time Ekta is surviving total on nostalgia that she's going out and bringing all well known faces for every character. All she needed was more expressive Prerna and less expensive komolika.


And kasauti was not about tragedy. Shweta and cezanne failed to differentiate their personal issues and professional priorities which turned it into something else.
