Shama Sikander

Shama Sikander, who kick-started her career with Yeh Meri Life Hai, about two years ago is set to make her comeback on the small screen with Kaajjal Sabbki Aankhon Mein Basi. The actress will be sharing screen space with Apoorva Agnihotri in the show.

According to Shama, the character she will now essay is an interesting one and completely different from what she had done in Yeh Meri Life Hai earlier. Shama informs, "Unlike a girl from the city, here I am playing village belle, Chameli. She runs a dhaba and is in love with Raju Rangeela (Apoorva Agnihotri)."

Chameli talks in a Haryanvi accent and the actress had to take help from one of her friends to master the art. "As I am from Rajasthan, I had a tough time picking up the typical Haryanvi accent. Then, one of my friends came to my rescue, helping me learn the language and I think I have almost mastered the accent by now," Shama says.

"Post Yeh Meri Life Hai, the offers were not at all exciting. So I preferred to stay off from those run of the mill scripts. Chameli's character is so different and that's why it's going to be my comeback vehicle," she says.

As far as working with Apoorva Agnihotri she is already showering praises on her co-star. "I have shot for just one day and Apoorva is fun to work with." When it comes to Surveen Chawla she prefers to be politically correct. "I hardly interacted with her on the sets of Kaajjal. I have done several stage shows with her and she comes across as a good person contrary to reports," she adds.

Are there any projects on the anvil? "I am just concentrating on Kajjal for the moment. Very soon, I am going to do another daily soap. I am also considering some projects from Balaji too," she says.

Kaacon Sethi, executive producer of the show adds, "She fits into the character very well. The track of Apoorva and Shama is the next best thing to look forward to."

Mona Vasu
Mona Vasu is all set to make a comeback of sorts to television (post Millee). The actress will be seen in Ek Ladki Anjaani Si opposite Ajay Gehi. Mona will be playing a schizophrenic patient who has had a mysterious past with Shakti Anand aka Nikhil in the show. It has been reported that Ami Trivedi was being considered for the role but was replaced by Mona Vasu.

"Mona plays this girl (Sonam) who will be Ajay Gehi aka Aryan's girlfriend. She has had a past with Nikhil and every time she sees Nikhil, she gets into this psychotic mode. Why she does so will be the mystery in the coming episodes," says Misha Gautam, the Creative Head of the show.

Post Millee, Mona has done a cameo on Shh Koi Hai and she will soon be going to Dubai for a Pakistani serial titled Rukhey Naina. "I am most probably doing it. I am on the verge of confirming the deal," says Mona, not wanting to reveal much about her role.

Ajay Gehi
The actor will don a flowing skirt, kurta and crimped hair look in the show. Shooting will commence from tomorrow and the show will be on air from 9 April.

On being asked about getting to work with Mona after so long, Ajay Gehi says, "Yes I have heard that Mona has been considered for the role of Sonam. She will play my girlfriend who is suffering from schizophrenia. The old tracks in the show will come to a standstill while the new track will focus on the lives of the four of us (Ananya, Nikhil, Aryan and Sonam)."

ya ur right..already they are kind of depressed..i mean ami was really feeling the pinch as she has told in the article about it and also amit equally deprerssed..well even though the show is coming to a natural happy end,but in reality it is not so..i mean all of them were already depressed about the show off air and suddenly mainsh health goes wrong..all are heart broken especially ami and mait..i mean to think of it their first show as lead and one of the best shows to end in a delicate position would be really pissing them off and also their fan..and also they are also quite sad that they are unable to help or convinve their fans..poor ami and amit...hope the channel jerks 😡 bring them back again...for a new show...i am sure mainsih when he comes back he might think about it... 😉 as he is also very emotionally attached to the crew and its actors...hope that happens 😆
