Colors
TV
has
now
announced
officially
that
the
actor
Gunjan
Utreja
will
be
playing
the
main
lead
in
their
show
Madhubala
Ek
Ishq
Ek
Junoon
opposite
the
show's
favourite
actress
and
Madhubala,
Drashti
Dhami.
Gunjan
recently
expressed
his
happiness
over
being
a
part
of
the
popular
show,
but
also
expressed
his
apprehension
of
being
compared
to
the
previous
lead
actor
and
the
famous
RK,
Vivian
Dsena.
He
recently
said,
"Comparisons
with
Vivian
are
inevitable
because
RK
was
a
character
people
recognised
the
show
with.
But
I
am
not
here
to
compete
with
him.
And
I
am
not
RK's
replacement.
I
am
walking
into
the
show
as
an
entirely
new
character,
Abhay
Kapoor...
AK,
the
superstar,
who
will
be
seen
romancing
Madhubala,
RK's
daughter."
The
29-year-old
talking
about
how
he
got
this
opportunity
said,
"Just
two
weeks
back,
I
suddenly
got
a
call,
and
after
some
look
tests
I
was
in!"
There
were
many
names
making
rounds
as
either
being
approached
or
being
finalised
to
play
the
role
of
AK
on
the
show.
The
names
included
Karanvir
Bohra,
Shaleen
Malhotra
and
even
Karan
Singh
Grover.
But
the
luck
was
at
Gunjan's
side
and
so
he
bagged
the
role.
So
let's
wait
and
watch
how
the
magic
works
for
this
pair,
and
whether
or
not
the
chemistry
that
sizzled
the
screen
between
RK
and
Madhubala
will
replicate
again
with
AK
and
Madhubala
again.
