Ankit Gupta new show: It's difficult to keep calm as Ankit Gupta is all set to return to the small screen with a grand project. Filmibeat has been sharing spicy updates about his comeback show ever since it was confirmed that he would be seen playing the lead role in Star Plus' new serial.

ANKIT GUPTA RETURNS TO TV

The small screen heartthrob shot to fame after playing the role of Fateh in Udaariyaan. His scorching on-screen romance with Priyanka Chahar Choudhary set the TRP charts on fire. Their sizzling chemistry grabbed several eyeballs for the channel as Udaariyaan became the number two show after Anupamaa and dominated the 7pm slot for over two years.

After the makers took a generation leap, Priyanka and Ankit left the serial. Colors channel immediately offered them Bigg Boss 16 and the duo accepted the offer. They made waves with their presence in the reality show.

Salman Khan also praised Priyanka Choudhary at the grand finale, calling her the 'true winner' of Bigg Boss 16. Although Ankit got evicted in a mid-week eviction, fans expressed their displeasure and demanded that he should be brought back as a wildcard contestant.

WILL ANKIT GUPTA PARTICIPATE IN KHATRON KE KHILADI 14?

Gossip mills suggested that Ankit Gupta might participate in Khatron Ke Khiladi 14. "The casting for Khatron Ke Khiladi season 14 has started and the channel is keen to have Ankit Gupta on board for the show. They are also in talks with Priyanka Chahar Choudhary for the show but things will depend on how the two sides take forward the discussion. The makers are excited to have Ankit in the show as they are aware about his popularity.

However, the Junooniyatt actor has opted to feature in a fiction show. He is no longer in contention to participate in KKK 14, which will be hosted by Rohit Shetty.
