The latest on Ekta's ambitious project Mahabharat is that Gauri Tejwani has been finalized as Draupati. Further, this will be the first time a show of hers that won't start with the letter K.
Our source informs, "Gauri's name is been finalized and now they are only discussing the payment. Her features and personality are quite suitable to Draupadi, who was not aggressive but assertive so it was felt she would be the best choice for the role."
According to the source Ekta was thinking of two names. "She had Anita Hasnandani and Gauri Tejwani, both her favourites, in mind. But she also kept her options open. So if both could not do it she was supposed to have a nationwide hunt to find out the appropriate Draupadi."
The show is going on air in August and Ekta is working very hard on it. "She does not want to leave any stone unturned so she is personally working night and day with her creative team. She is consulting her numerologist and tarot reader for an auspicious date for the launch of the show. It will be telecast on Friday – Saturday," reveals the source.
It is being said that Hiten Tejwani will be playing Karan and Aryan Vaid Duryodhan. The shooting will being in Mumbai so the hunt is on for some outdoor locations.
