Reena Kapoor and Aamir Ali will have a lavish wedding in Woh Rehnewali Mehlon Ki' (Sahara One).
The Rajshri Productions' show 'Woh Rehnewali Mehlon Ki' (Sahara One) completes its run of 300 episodes this week and will have actor Reena Kapoor (Pari) getting married to Saumya (Aamir Ali) in a lavish ceremony.
Reena who earlier essayed the role of Pari's mother Rani in the show didn't imagine that she would be asked to play the daughter too. Reena says, "Post the 20-year-leap, I did not wish to play an older character.
So I had decided to opt out of the show. But Kavita Barjatya (creative producer and sister of film director Sooraj Barjatya) offered to cast me as the 21-year-old Pari. It is challenging to play a daughter who though looks identical to her mother, has a distinct personality."
Reena continues, "Pari is savvy and street smart while Rani was bholi bhali. Contrast to Pari who is exuberant, Rani was sober. Following an accident Pari walks with a limp. She has been brought up by her foster mother Surekha (Shagufta Ali)."
But how would the engagement and wedding episodes, filmed on the lines of 'Hum Aap Ke Hain Kaun' grab eyeballs in comparison to the other equally dramatic soaps? Kavita is not perturbed.
She says, "There is mystery and intrigue woven in the celebrations. Pari will be getting married to Saumya (Aamir Ali), son of the conniving Kaamya (Kamya Punjabi). In the past Kaamya had tried to create a rift between Rani and her husband Prince (Arjun Punj)." Kavita continues, "Kaamya pretends that by accepting Pari as her bahu she is atoning for her past sins. But she will soon show her true colours."
Incidentally, Reena is married to software engineer Karan Nikher who has recently shifted base from Delhi to Mumbai.
