Pammi not to exit 'Kareena Kareena'

Pammi not to exit 'Kareena Kareena'

Pammi (Pushti in real life) stepping out of Zee TV's Kareena Kareena? That's what the buzz is.
Last night, we saw Tushar (Sandeep Rajoria) seeing through the vamp's gameplan and discovering that RJ Kareena and Mrs Sood are in fact, the same individual.

But Pammi's fans (and we hear she has as many as Kareena (Kulraj Kaur) need not despair.

When contacted, Pushti said, "This is news to me! Yes, my track has virtually come to an end. But vamps seldom die on Indian television. As far as I know, there'll be another track where I 'll screw up Kareena's day-to-day life once again."

But when will that happen, Pushti? "Well, I may not be shooting for the next 15 days or so. But I believe another track for me will be ready by then," she counters.

Whether that's wishful thinking or not, we should know in the next few days. Vamps seldom vanish in a serial on Indian television. But of late, Nivedita Bhattacharya was bumped off in 'Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii'. Ditto for Gitanjali Tikekar in 'Kasautii Zindagii Kay'.

Maybe here on, Pammi has little role to play in the story?

"No way," says producer Ajay Kapoor, "Pammi is a fantastic character. So what if she is not shooting for the next few days? Serials are not shot in sequence order. Pammi will resurface to harass Kareena yet again".

As for now, Pushti is busy with The 'Great Indian Comedy Show' on Star One, Jassi... on Sony, and the soon-to-be-launched Millie.
