They say life goes on and we say so do soap operas. So all you wannabe actors get your act together, Ektaa Kapoor has reported to have launched a talent-hunt for the new set of characters and the new character in 'Kyunkii' is taking a 20-year leap this June.

''Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, the flagship soap from Balaji Telefilms Ltd, which has been ruling the TRP charts for the last five years, is all set to take a 20-year leap this June. The leap, therefore, makes way for a host of new characters to make their appearance on the small screen.

In our endeavour to search for new faces, creative team of 'Kyunki...' is stepping out of the country's "glamour capital" Mumbai,''a spokesperson of Balaji telefilms told here.

As part of its talent search, Balaji Telefilms will conduct auditions across several cities of North India.

So, while the auditions for selecting actors for the show will be held in New Delhi on April 29 and 30 at Noida's Marwah Studios, they will be followed by auditions in Shimla on May 1 at Chaura Maidan College.

Auditions will also be held in Chandigarh on May 2 at the Dev Samaj College for Girls.
