Zee TV's Kumkum Bhagya takes 7-year leap; Mishal Raheja roped in as Ki

Mumbai: Telelvision's numero uno
show Kumkum Bhagya has been ruling
viewers' hearts and receiving an
overwhelming response to its
interesting plot and affable characters.
Produced by TV Czarina Ekta Kapoor
and featuring actors Shabbir Ahluwalia
and Sriti Jha in lead roles, this
immensely popular Zee TV primetime
drama explores various facets of
emotions, relationships and has been
achieving roaring success on the
ratings charts since its launch. The
show's starkly contrasting lead
characters- the flamboyant rockstar
Abhi (Shabbir Ahluwalia) and the prim
and proper, bespectacled girl-next -
door Pragya (Sriti Jha) have, over the
past 3 years, emerged as one of Indian
television's most loved and iconic
couples. Touching unparalleled highs
in the course of its glorious journey,
Kumkum Bhagya reached the 1000
episodes mark in January this year.
The show's ardent fans are in for a big
surprise as the show will soon take a
leap of 7 years for the first time in its
1000+ episode run. Promising to
change the dynamics between Abhi
and Pragya in unimaginable ways,
television heart-throb Mishal Raheja
will be seen making his entry in the
show to essay the role of King Singh.
A successful rockstar, King Singh is a
loud and boisterous person with a
flamboyant, larger than life personality.
He is known for his quirky style
statement, much like a boxing star,
while performing on stage. Above all
else, King Singh needs the spotlight
firmly fixed on him as he is in love with
himself. After conquering the hearts of
his fans in London, King Singh is all set
to take Indian audiences by storm
with his music.
Speaking about his entry on the show,
the talented actor Mishal Raheja said,
"It feels great to be a part of a hugely
successful Balaji Production like
KumKum Bhagya. I love the
atmosphere on the sets; the adrenalin
rush is incomparable! King Singh's
character is very cool and quirky but
he has different layers to his
personality which makes him
interesting to essay. He will be
instrumental in challenging Abhi
(Shabbir Ahluwalia) by becoming his
biggest rival. It feels great to be a part
of such a beloved show which has
been widely accepted by audiences all
over. I am really looking forward to
entertaining the audiences.
With Mishal's entry, Abhi (Shabbir
Ahluwalia) and Pragya's (Sriti Jha)
relationship will witness many more
tumultuous turns, making one wonder
if the lovebirds will ever re-unite!
