The Sony show that sees the entry of Akashdeep 'Ansh' Saigal shortly, is fast becoming a nightmare for its scriptwriters.
Entering the track around the same time is Mouli Ganguly, while Narayani Shastri stages a comeback as Taashu in the long running serial too. Lead protagonists Abhay (Anuj Saxena) and Kkusum (Mansi Joshi Roy), needless to say, are unwilling to let go of the spotlight too.
As things stand, Abhay is about to be disowned by the Kapoor family after a confrontation with Kkusum sometime this week. Abhay, who returns from Shimla, will attempt to reconcile with his family, offering to solve the Kapoor family's financial problems. Kkusum will however step in and blame him for the 'khandaan's problems in front of Kumud, Kali, Kshitiz and Garv. She even blames him for the fatal attempt on Mahi's life and for the attempts on her own life.
Abhay's attempts to pacify her are to no avail, as even his father insists that Abhay is to blame for all the ills plaguing the family. Abhay clarifies that he fled to Shimla on the wedding day, as he received a mysterious call from Shimla from a woman who claimed to solve all his financial worries. The mysterious caller turns out to be Taashu herself. Abhay is unwilling to divulge anything more, and this turns the family off even more.
Anuj aka Abhay Kapoor will walk out of the house. In real life, Anuj Saxena is leaving for a week to Europe on a business trip.
More on Kkusum. Chetan Hansraj's track is going to be sidelined, as the actor is going on a 45 day leave for his feature film, while Mauli Ganguly enters the track as Soham's love interest.
The show's makers are currently working on Akashdeep's look and entry as Trishul in the show. Making matters more complicated is the fact that while other Balaji shows like Kyunki... and Kasautii... will be making a generation leap in March, this show won't.
