New Delhi, Dec 31 (IANS) Yash Raj Films Television will be back with its second innings on Sony Entertainment Television, this time with 'Khote Sikkey' - a story highlighting how rich and spoilt children are indulging in crime these days.
The show, which will be dominated by fresh faces, will go on air in January.
'Khote Sikkey' traces the story of an unlikely gang - five privileged youngsters and one stubborn cop who manage to solve various crimes. It will be a bi-weekly show with a new, fictional case in focus every week.
But the basic premise of the show is how the rich in the urban cities are getting richer by the day and their crimes are getting more random and more uncontrollable, said a source.
YRF Television, the television arm of entertainment conglomerate Yash Raj Films, had earlier launched shows like 'Mahi Way', 'Rishta.com', 'Powder' or 'Seven' which were very distinct in their storytelling and quality. But they failed to garner Television Rating Points (TRPs) too well.
However, a sequel to 'Mahi Way' is in the offing, according to sources.

The show which will air on Sony will trace the lives of these five grown-up individuals who are into drugs, use a lot of weapons, drive fast cars, party a lot and interact with people who are involved in nefarious activities. 
After the cast and crew of Dil Toh Bacha Hai Ji spread their smile on the sets of Sony's Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, it is the turn of the 'Khotey Sikkey' to get into action next week!! 
YRF's Khote Sikkey on Sony TV as we know, is the tale of five youngsters who are forced to help the police in stopping urban crime!! We hear that in addition to the five 'Sikkey' striking a super combination of being intelligent brats, they share a common passion off screen, and that is towards 'Music'!!.
A little birdie from the sets informs, "The environment on the sets is very musical and all of them are always in a musical mood. Hasan Zaidi and Sukhmani who essay Mohit and Uttara, are often seen playing their guitars on the set. Mark Farokh Parakh who essays Ayush in the show is a piano player. Apart from the cast, the DOP of the show also is very much interested in music".
"The sound recorder of the show also gets time out to have a musical time with the guys. The entire gang is seen either playing their favorite instruments, or singing whenever they have free time. Vikas Kumar and Mark also fill in as singers, and have a fabulous voice", adds our source.
Recently, while the entire cast was busy taking off their make-up after a hectic day of shoot, they started singing together and it was one big bash that everyone who witnessed it enjoyed..
We contacted Hasan Zaidi and he confirmed, "Yes, we all are music freaks and have lot of fun on the sets. Most of the cast is related to music in one or the other way. While few sing well, Sukhmani and I play good guitar, and Mark comes with abundant talent. So we together have a blast on the sets when free".
Guess the 'Khotey Sikkey' have already started proving their worth in one way or the other...

YRF and Sony TV's second series of shows have kick-started with Khotey Sikkey which tells us the story of inspector Damodar Deshmukh and his five handed army.
Aaradhna Uppal aka Kumud Singhania of Imagine TV's Kitani Mohabbat Hai 2 will now essay a very challenging cameo role in Sony TV's and YRF's Khotey Sikkey.
Sanjay Nath who essayed the role of Pinakin in Imagine's Bandini will be seen in an episodic in Sony's Khotey Sikkey, the tale of five youngsters who get trapped in a journey of helping the police. Sanjay will play the character of Pinto a ruthless yet famous Don in Goa. The episode will be aired tonight. We contacted Sanjay who confirmed the news "Yes I am playing the character of Pinto who is a cold blooded murderer. The character is very strong, and I was never in favor of doing an episodic but when I heard the narration I could not refuse".
Pinto's daughter gets killed by the police which includes the gang of the five Khotey Sikkeys, and the story moves forward when the Don gets back at the police to take revenge..
Sanjay Nath was to play a very important character in Sahara One's Ganga Kii Dheej, but could not take it up due to certain confusions..
Talking about it, Sanjay tells TellyBuzz, "I recently underwent a disappointing phase in my career. I was to do a movie with John Abraham titled 'Force'. At the same time, I was offered the role in Ganga Kii Dheej. The movie got into some problem as John opted out of it, all of a sudden. This is when they relieved my dates from the movie, and I took up the Sahara One show. I had just started shooting for it in Mysore, Karnataka when I got a call again for the movie. They had by then resolved their issue with John and wanted me to get back to them immediately. I took some time to opt out of the Sahara show and eventually lost up on both the offers".

Vikas Kumar is undoubtedly sizzling as Inspector Damodar Deshmukh in Sony TV's Khotey Sikkey and his performance is indeed unmatched.
