We had earlier reported that Kritika Kamra had been approached to play one of the siblings in Balaji Telefilms' new show on Sony, Pyaar Ka Bandhan. She had also been offered the other Ekta show on Sony, Bayttaab Dil Kee Tamanna Hai, but things did not work out for the actress.

The latest on this is that Kritika Kamra has been finalized to play one of the siblings in Pyaar Ka Bandhan. And as reported earlier, Mahesh Shetty will be playing the eldest of the siblings.

According to our source, "Kritika Kamra will play Prateeksha in the show. Mahesh Shetty essays the role of Milind while Lavanya Tripathi, of Channel [v]'s Get Gorgeous fame will play the youngest of the siblings, Aaraina, the main lead of Pyaa Ka Bandhan. The actor to play the role of Chotu aka Aziz has not been finalized yet".

Kritika Kamra confirmed the news, and said, "Yes, I am playing Prateeksha in the show. I am cutting short my vacation, and am getting back to Mumbai very soon to be part of the promotional activities".

We called Mahesh Shetty who is right now out of Mumbai, busy shooting for his other new show on Sahara One Agnisakshi, and he said, "I have been busy with my shoot for the Sahara One show. I will have to get back to you once I reach Mumbai and have a word with them".

Pyaar Ka Bandhan airs from Monday to Thursday at the 10. 30 PM slot on Sony. The show is expected to take a leap in the coming week.
