After weeks of dilly-dallying, Karan Singh Grover has finally agreed to come onboard to play Mr Bajaj in Ekta Kapoor’s popular show, Kasautii Zindagii Kay, according to reports.
The actor, who began his career from television, was approached to play the iconic character a couple of weeks ago. However, he was in two minds about making his comeback to television after bidding it goodbye in 2013.
Now, it is confirmed that Karan Singh Grover has agreed to reprise the role played by the powerful performer Ronit Roy in the original show which first aired almost two decades ago.
“Things have eventually fallen in place for Karan and he is all set to fly to Switzerland to start his shoot for Kasautii Zindagii Kay,” a source close to the development reveals to an entertainment portal.
Kasautii Zindagii Kay is the reboot version of Ekta Kapoor’s hit show of the same name. The original show had Shweta Tiwari, Cezanne Khan, Urvashi Dholakia and Ronit Roy in lead roles, while the new version stars Parth Samthaan and Erica Fernandes as the lead pair.
Just like its predecessor, the latest version of the show has also struck the right chord with the audience. It is currently the most popular show on Star Plus.
