VESTED INTERESTS: Aamir Ali Malik (above) and Iqbal Khan
There is a new kahani mein twist for Ekta Kapoor and it's not happening on-screen in one of her soap operas. Two of her actors want to act in two separate serials and are fighting to get into them.
"It's a bizarre situation," laughs Kapoor. "The boys are creating such a problem." Ekta wants to sign Aamir Ali Malik (who had acted in Yeh Kya Ho Raha Hai) as the lead, Angad in Kaisa Yeh Pyar Hai on Sony TV.
While she wants Iqbal Khan of Fun2oosh to play the role of Gayatri Gill's fianc in Kahanii Ghar Ghar Kii on Star Plus.
"But the problem is that now Aamir wants to play the fianc and Iqbal wants to play the male lead in Kaisa Yeh Pyar Hai," groans an irritated Kapoor.
"The reason being Iqbal feels that the Sony show and role is better. while Aamir doesn't care about the lead role, he just wants 15 days off every month to act in films," adds Kapoor. This disagreement leaves Kapoor in a fix.
Kaisa Yeh Pyar Hai is an angry love story, something more radical than what Kapoor has attempted before. It's about the love between Angad and Kripa. Kripa believes in love while Angad doesn't. Angad indulges in drugs, sex and alcohol .
Kripa comes to stay with his family and falls in love with his lover boy image.
She realises that in spite of what he does he is not a bad guy. They fall in love but soon split. He later falls in love with her once again, but due to her earlier experience she doesn't believe in love anymore.
In Kahanii Ghar Ghar Ki, next week the politically powerful Gill family will meet the Agarwals.
The twist occurs when it is discovered that Shruti — Parvati and Om Agarwal's daughter might not be their daughter after all.
In fact, Gayatri Gill from the Gill family might be theirs while Shruti might belong to the Gill family.
The serial will go into flashback mode with the pregnancies of Parvati and Gayatri's mother, in the pre-operation Bluestar days.
When the riot broke out, the babies got exchanged…or did they? Kapoor is not revealing anything right now.
