At SRK's mercy

Viraasat might wind up because of the channel's preference for KBC

Time up: A still from Viraasat

Soon after Shah Rukh Khan signed in on KBC, the channel has decided to go in for a lot of re-shuffling of other shows. And one of the immediate casualties would be Viraasat. According to Star's creative head Shailja Kejriwal, "Viraasat would be one of the shows, that has to go, I guess… at least for 13 weeks when KBC starts. Whether it comes back or not, remains to be seen. I agree the show wasn't a success as we thought it would be."

Rohit Roy, one of the lead actors in the show refused to consider the possibility that Viraasat going off air. While Viraasat is getting ready to wind up, Rohit sounds optimistic. "Until I'm officially told about the closure, I'll give my best to the show. It's the only soap I've been acting in and I don't want to be jobless again," he says. It all depends upon Mr Shah Rukh Khan. We're at his mercy," he laughs.

Rohit adds, "In fact, in the next two months (until KBC starts) my track is going to undergo a sea change. I'll be more of an angry young man, the way I had been projected in serials like Swabhimaan and Sarkarrr."

What about stories of endless fracas among the marquee names in Viraasat? "You mean Amarr Upadhyay, Aman Verma and I being constantly at war? Not true! It was the nature of our characters to seem belligerent, which spilled over as gossips, I guess," says Rohit.

Talking more about his female co-stars, Rohit says, "In fact Sangeeta and Nikki Aneja are my two favourite co-stars from the industry. Sangeeta is an angel. She's an Arian just like me and we get along like a house on fire."

because of virasat, I left all the show watching. This is the best show. If I do not watch, I do not sleep. I think KSBKBT (Tulsi) must go and leave this show alone. What do you think? 😭
