The story is sooo very Parineeta...I bet this Mahen Babu(Btw this was Saif's dad's name in Parineeta)wants his hands on Gauri's father's property and wants to make it into a shopping complex or at least a hotel!!That is y he wants to get Gauri married to this shashank dude so that Gauri's father will transfer the name of the property to Shashank as Dowry...Gauri will find out he is the plot of cheating Gauri's father and will look for support in Shiv.
And come to think of it,Gauri will fall in love with Shiv who is Mahen's son...Take note that Saif was the rich guy's son who was in love with simpleton Lolita in Parineeta...
This silly guy who plays Shashank is really silly...In his interview he said he didnt want to reveal anything else abt his character but he also added that Mahen is a man who uses everybody who gets in his way...
