Tuesday, April 17, 2007

The long awaited change in the Star Plus hit show, Kasuatii Zindagi Kay will finally happen, Yes, Hiten Tejwani will step into Cezzane Khan's shoes at the end of the month. "We will indeed begin shooting in a few days", confirmed the Sindhi actor. Will it not be difficult to step into the shoes of somebody, who has played Anurag Basu for all these years? "See I know it will take some time for the viewers to accept me. But surely over time, I will win them over with my acting abilities", he says.

So how will the change over be effected? "Right now, I honestly don't have an idea. When Star informs me, I will let you know, I have not done any kind of preparations. Neither have I got the time to watch any episodes. I will plan my action on the briefing, Balaji gives me. One thing is for sure, that I will play Anurag in a completely different manner than Cezanne", he adds.

Any fears about entering a group which has been together for years? Hiten asserts confidently, "No yaar, I don't believe in any groupism. I just do my work and go home. Besides, I am on very good terms with Shewta Tiwari(Prena) and Ronit Roy(Mr. Bajaj). And last but not the least remember this is a Balaji production, which I have always considered home"

As Hiten, what's his take on Anurag, getting married again and again? "Even in Kyunki, I have had multiple wives, so it's cool. All these twist and turns are necessary in a soap, though we may personally agree with it or not", signs off this very busy actor.
