Another jolt to Aroona's Doli

March 30, 2007

As if constant delays weren't bad enough, actor Anuj Saxena has now walked out of the show after shooting 10 episodes

Inteha Ho Gayi... intezaar ki: Aroona Irani
It looks like this bride and groom will continue waiting for a while longer. Though it has been long-in-the making, there's fresh trouble for Aroona Irani's soap, Doli Saja Ke, slated for SaharaOne.

The inordinate delays have resulted in actor Anuj Saxena quitting the show even before it is slated to go on air by April-end.

Busybody

Saxena has shot for more than 10 episodes, so a re-shoot with a fresh incumbent could prove daunting. It is learnt that Irani has submitted four audition tapes to SaharaOne to pencil in on the replacement.

Says Saxena, "I opted out of Doli Saja Ke out of choice. Presently, I am very busy with other commitments, so it was better to part ways.

My production house Maverick is presenting the film Dulha Mil Gaya (starring Shah Rukh Khan, Sushmita Sen and Fardeen Khan), besides some other projects."

Kahani mein twist

No Time: Anuj Saxena
It is learnt that Saxena had an amicable parting with the channel. Earlier, the actor was seen in SaharaOne's shows like Asha Parekh's Kuuch Pal Saath Tumhara, Raja Mukerji's Prratima and Kinnari Mehta's Solhah Singaarr.

"May be a few months down the line something interesting may come along. I will look at it," adds Saxena who has featured in soaps like Kkusum and Rishhton Ki Dor in recent times.

Doli Saja Ke is a family saga about the trials and tribulations of a father and daughter.

Somewhat similar to the Anil Kapoor film Lamhe, the story takes off after the wife dies giving birth and the father becomes indifferent to the offspring.

Saxena plays the role of the husband who loses his wife (Surbhi Tiwari). The daughter (Barkha Bisht) is considered unlucky and has to live with the curse of being responsible for her mother's death.

Jaya Mathur essays the role of the second wife. Manoj Bidvvai and Arzoo Govitriker also feature in the drama.

Irani has produced shows like Des Main Nikkla Hoga Chand (Star), Rabba Ishq Na Hove and Mehndi Tere Naam Ki (both Zee) and Vaidehi (Sony).

Incidentally, she was also slated to produce Dor, starring Muskan Mihani, for SAB, which never took off despite a long shoot schedule.


'Doli Saja Ke will not replace Kituu'

Off We Go! Kituu Sabb Jaantii Hai

Manish Goswami's Kituu Sabb Jaantii Hai will be yanked off air next week.

But the new show in the 10 pm slot will not be Aroona Irani's Doli Saja Ke.

Says Kalyan Sundaram, programming head, SaharaOne, "The last episode of Kituu will air on April 6 but we are not replacing it with a soap.

Comedy Champions will air during that hour. Doli Saja Ke will air April-end."
