A 20-year leap is being planned for
Madhubala - Ek Ishq Ek Junoon that
has been on air for one-and-a-half-
year. The serial that started with a
bang was among the top-rated
shows for a long time and the lead
pair of Vivian D Sena- Dhrasti
Dhami were popular as RK and
Madhu.
However, in the past few months,
the serial witnessed a slide in the
viewer ship and recently RK's
double KRK was introduced to
infuse some freshness. However,
even that doesn't seem to have
helped in arresting the downslide.
Having run out of plots, the makers
are now making a last ditch effort
to save the serial. It is introducing a
20-year-leap in the next two weeks.
"Once the leap happens, there will
be a fresh story line with new
characters. Dhrasti will continue
post-leap, but Vivian's character will
be done away with and he will no
longer be a part of the show," says
the source. The hunt for the new
leads is on.
Producer Saurabh Tewary was
unavailable for comment. Recently,
his other serial Do Dil Ek Jaan had
also taken a 20-year leap, where-in
the lead actors Nikita Sharma and
Ayaz Ahmed were replaced with
Kanwar Dhillon and Shritama
Mukherjee with a new storyline.
However it went off air one month
after the leap! It remains to be
seen which way Madhubala will go.
