Abhay, the killer!
By Shaheen Parkar Manasi Joshi Roy and Anuj Saxena in KkusumIn a major twist to the long-running soap Kkusum (Sony), the main protagonist Abhay (Anuj Saxena) will go negative.
He will be blamed for Mahi's (Poonam Narula) death and Kkusum's kidnapping. The promos on air already indicate this, but there's more. This build-up will lead to Mahi's re-entry into the soap.
According to producer Ekta Kapoor, "There will be not one, but two twists in the plot. At the moment the focus is on Abhay and the crimes. Once Mahi is back in the soap, there will be the next twist."
Though Kapoor would not like to reveal how exactly Mahi will return to the show (resurface from the dead in true Balaji fashion?), she says, "Poonam is on a maternity break. I have already spoken to her; we just have to work out when exactly she can begin shooting again."
Adds Saxena, "It is a good experience to play a character with both positive and negative shades. Over the years my character has evolved in the soap. Now Kkusum will accuse me for the crimes committed. But I am sure the viewers cannot perceive me to be the killer."
So if not Abhay, then who is the killer? "That you will have to wait and watch," says Saxena.
Incidentally Saxena has also gone negative in Saara Akaash (Star Plus). As Karan Singh, who is actually Falak, is on a manhunt.
