Saurabh Tewari's Madhubala - Ek Ishq Ek Junoon on Colors is gaining all the limelight of late, with viewers expecting few big guns to enter the show to add to the drama in the post leap phase of story telling.
While reports of Deepshika Nagpal, Kishwer Merchantt and Fenil Umrigar's entry has already been reported in media circles, we have a bit more information on the addition to the cast.
Talented actress Utkarsha Naik who essayed the role of Manorama in Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon has been roped in to play a pivotal role. Paired opposite her will be Rajesh Balwani who is presently seen in Life OK's Kaisa Yeh Ishq Hai.. Ajab Sa Risk Hai. Also, seasoned actress Neelu Kohli who was last seen on Colors in Na Bole Tum Na Maine Kuch Kaha will have a very important role to essay.
A reliable source tells us that Deepshika who will play mother to the super star Abhay Kapoor (Gunjan Utreja) will be an out and out negative lady. For a change, Utkarsha will play a completely positive role, that of the chachi' to Abhay who is more like a mother to him. Rakesh Balwani will play Abhay's chacha'. Neelu Kohli will be the head of Abhay's family, and will be fondly called Beeji by one and all. Neelu will again essay a positive character, who will be very affectionate towards Abhay.
As per reports, Kishwer will play the wife of Nikhil Lamba (Puneet Sachdev). Fenil has been roped in to play the parallel lead on the show, which will be that of wife to Abhay.
When contacted, Utkarsha said, "Talks are certainly on, but nothing is final as of now. I am waiting to know from them."
Neelu Kohli though confirmed her entry in Madhubala saying, "Yes, I will be heading Abhay's family. This is all that I can say at the moment."
We could not get through to Rakesh Balwani to get his confirmation.
Our efforts to reach Producer Saurabh Tewari were in vain.
We hear that the new cast will start shooting for Madhubala very soon.
