Piya Ka Ghar to bid adieu

Reth and Piya Ka Ghar, two of the channel's steady and stable shows, will be bowed out by mid February. On the cards is a reshuffle of its existing shows like Paalkhi, and the recent entry of new properties like Kasamh Se and Mamta.

Sources say the channel plans a complete revamp of the noon band shortly.

Piya Ka Ghar, launched in 2003, has the distinction of being the longest running shows on Zee, having already clocked 730 episodes. Sighs producer Sheel Kumar of Shreya Creations, "Piya Ka Ghar was my first show as a 'proper family drama', and it's done exceptionally well. It's sad letting it go, but I guess, all good things eventually come to an end!"

Narayani Shastri, who carved a niche for herself as the long suffering Rimjhim and later doubled up as her daughter Megha for a while, says, "Of course, we are all feeling very bad, but I guess, it had to end some time."

Narayani currently is toying with some offers in hand, but does not intend to take any up till she's had a short break.
