One does not have to look too hard to find controversies from the Balaji camp. Infact, they churn out as many controversies as serials. A couple of months back, they launched a talent hunt to spot Nimmo for their forthcoming show Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka. Though Ekta Kapoor's exhaustive hunt yielded Nimmo, the show has not been equally lucky in its search for the lead man. Cezanne Khan, who was roped in to play Nimmo's love interest walked out of the show citing date problems. Cezanne' loss was Hiten Tejwani's gain. But not for long -- Hiten will not be playing the role either. Confirming the news, Hiten says, "I have just been informed by Balaji that I'm not a part of Nimmo. It was their call. By the way things are proceeding; I can see that it is not working out. I'm just following instructions." According to industry insiders TV actors are just not interested in acting in a serial which will only have a hundred episodes. It's obviously more lucrative to star in never ending That's the real reason for the walk-outs. The big question then is who will be the man in Nimmo's life? All eyes are on Eijaz Khan of Kkavyanjali fame. "We're yet to decide between Eijaz and Hiten. Most probably it will be Eijaz Khan. Due to his Kkavyanjali commitments, he is yet to confirm his dates and how he will divide his time for both the shows," says Nivedita Basu, deputy creative head of Balaji Telefilms. Meanwhile, Hiten is not one to be caught brooding on his loss. "I'm fine with it. My plate is full with two shows Kkavyanjali and Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. Above all, I'm an optimist." | ||
