T he actor who essays the role of Mihir Virani in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Rishabh Bajaj in Kasauti Zindagi Kay will be seen in a new role in Balaji's frontrunner show on Kasamh Se (Zee) Playing the NRI Says Ronit Roy, "I was being considered for this role for quite a while now. I finally agreed to do it since it offers me an opportunity to infuse freshness into my acting career. "My career has been slow for the past two years. Now, I've woken up from slum- ber." He adds, "I play an NRI businessman Aparajit Dev. It's not a cameo but a full- fledged act. There is a story behind the comeback, which I can't detail at this point. But my presence will greatly influence the rela- tionship between the lead protagonists Bani (Prachi Desai) and Jay Walia (Ram Kapoor)." His co-actor on the show, Kapoor, adds, "I can only reveal that Ronit is going to be one of the strongest char- acters on the show. His return to India is going to impact my marriage to Bani. "Now, would that be for the better or worse is the for the viewers to guess. You have to watch the show to know that. But let me tell you, it's a mix of both." Generation leap Roy states, "There are cer- tain changes lined up in Kasauti.. as the show will go for a generation leap very soon. Kyunki..is going as strong as ever and I'm also perfroming in a cameo in Kayamath." Besides acting, Roy runs Ace securities. He says, "Since I'm busy acting, it's my brother-in-law who takes care of the business." Any plans of getting into production? He replies, "I might do that in the future. Right now, I harbour no such plans. I hardly have time to even join my broth- ers's (Rohit Roy) produc- tion or to sign up a new show."
