Ekta Kapoor‘s Kasautii Zindagii Kay is unarguably one of the most popular shows of Indian television. The final episode of this dramatic love saga between Prerna (Shweta Tiwari) and Anurag (Cézanne Khan) was aired on 28th February 2008. Now, a decade later, Balaji Telefilms has decided to launch a reprised version of the daily soap. The teaser was released recently and it has received a mixed response from the audience.

While many are excited with the comeback of their favourite show, some are a tad disappointed as they think the old one’s magic can never be recreated.

I’m sure the producers were well aware of this. Hence, they’ve zeroed down on two of the most loved youngsters from the TV industry to play the new lead pair – Erica Fernandes and Parth Samthaan.

The former’s face is pretty visible in the video but the guy cannot be seen clearly here. So we’re not too sure if it is Parth after all. However, most reports suggest that Erica and Parth are your new Prerna and Anurag. Names like Shaheer Sheikh and Ssharad Malhotra were also considered for the male lead.

I guess we’ll have to wait a little longer to be able to check out the new cast. The show is scheduled to air on Star Plus from August this year.

Also, is it just me or even you are equally excited to find out who will play the new Komollika?
