Is Manasi Joshi-Roy on her way out from 'Kkusum'?
----------------------------------------------
The rumour mills are working overtime that Manasi Joshi-Roy will no longer play Kkusum in Kkusum- Balaji's show on Sony. We hear, Shilpa Saklani is one of the front contenders for the role.
Uff! Is this going to be a Mihir Virani-like saga, the character from Kyunki.... who changed not once but twice?
When contacted, Manasi said, "I am fit and fine. I am putting all my energies from 9 am to 6 pm, and at times, go even beyond if need be. I am still shooting. There is no replacement coming."
On the other hand, Saklani offered, "I have been offered (a long pause) but I don't know which role. Let's see. Ekta is a little caught up with a few things. Plus I haven't yet given my consent."
Over to Ekta's trusted lieutenant, Nivedita Basu. "We have offered Saklani a role in Kkusum but that's another character, a negative role. Kkusum is not changing," Basu squashed the rumours.
Prior to Manasi, Nausheen Ali Sardar enacted this portrayal. Today, she is doing Star Plus' Kalcchakra which has thus far failed to garner any appreciable response.

Okay...so the change wasn't going to happen...which it did...and Shilpa was offered a negative character...does that mean that Kkusum's gonna become negative...I mean I know she's taking revenge but that's only negative for the bad people...she's still a positive character...hmm...confusing?
