Hiten Tejwani

Early next week, the Nanda household will have a new entrant in the form of a liquor baron.

Playing the wealthy and flirtatious Yug Mittal in Kkvayanjali (Star Plus) is none other than Kyunki's Karan (Hiten Tejwani).

The creative head for the show said, "Yug Mittal is a cool dude. He has his own take on life and loves being a casanova. He's into the party scene and loves to flaunt his wealth."

Apparently, the coming week will see the Nanda family try their hand at the liquor business.

Mittal's entry on the show will be seen as a plot in giving them tough competition. Tejwani, who plays Yug Mittal, sounded excited about doing something where he has a different look.

"What got me interested was Mittal's personality. I was excited at this opportunity to play an interesting character who has so much to offer to the show," said Tejwani. Describing Mittal's look, he says, "I will be wearing tattered jeans and a blend of casual and formal attire. This is a completely new look for me."

So is Mittal single or does he already have someone in his life? "He is very much single and available. He doesn't have trouble getting good-looking girls for himself.

He is not so much of a flirt but a romantic at heart."

With this role, Tejwani will now be seen on three different shows: Karan in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Abhinav in Kesar and now Yug Mittal in Kkavyanjali.

Ask him whether he fears burnout with three dailies, and he says, "I have done this in the past. It's not new for me.

Maybe they will relieve me from Kesar. I am not too sure about anything right now. But I didn't want to say no to Kkavyanjali since the role was something I hadn't done in a long time."

Other crossovers on the show

With Tejwani's entry Kkavyanjali could very soon turn out to be a crossover special.

Some months back Kahiin To Hoga's baddie Rishi (Shabbir Ahluwalia) entered the show as Vansh.

Also K Street Pali Hill's pony tailed Vikram Kapadia made a mark as Saket.
