To be aired in the weekday primetime slot- ''Viraasat - Nafrat Ke Khel Mein, Do Dilon Ki Chahat'' will see leading faces of small screen in a high-powered drama at 2100 hrs.

''Viraasat'' is a multi-starrer family drama and has a strong line-up of television's most popular faces ranging from Kiran Kumar, Deepak Quazir, Aman Verma, Amar Upadhyay, Jayati Bhatia, Pooja Rawal Ghai , Rohit Roy and Sangita Ghosh. ''Our currently running successful 2100 hrs show 'Miilee' had reached its logical conclusion, so it was imperative for us to launch a show which could fit well into the bigness of primetime 2100 hrs and be a thorough entertainer . With Viraasat that's exactly what we are getting for the viewers,'' Star India EVP, Content, Deepak Segal said.

''Viraasat'' is the story of two people -- Rahul Lamba, played by Rohit Roy, and Priyanka Kharbanda, played by Sangita Ghosh, who are madly in love with each other. However, they are troubled by an age-old enmity between their warring families.
