Konfusion with 'Kkusum'

While Kasauti.. team went to Malaysia for shooting, Kkusum too had similar plans. However, the unit changed its plans from shooting at Malaysia to Australia. But now looks like it will continue shooting at home.

A leap was also being planned in the serial. But there is a speculation that the actors won't agree to it. There is no end to what the rumor mills are spinning. It goes off to the extent to say that the show might go off air, as there isn't much substance in it anymore.

A scene from 'Kkusum'

Confusion has become synonymous with Kkusum. Shwetta Kawaatra had walked out long back. Recently Narayani Shastri announced her leave. And now Moulie Ganguly playing Vidhi has called quit. Now who will be the next to announce a walk out?

Nothing seems to be going right with Kkusum. The show that rocked off as 'aam ladki ki khaas kahani' (a simple girl's special story) is losing its focus. It started with Kkusum and Abhay, shifting between the senior lead actors and sometimes on the younger generations.

Characters have either walked out, or have been replaced. The buzz that Manasi Joshi Roy will be replaced was the talk of the TV fraternity sometime back. Various actresses like Shilpa Saklani, Ayesha Julka and Sangeeta Ghosh were considered but finally Manasi is continuing and she is not taking any break.

Where there is a wave that character 'Mahi' played by Poonam Narula is being brought back in the show, no one knows when she will be starting to shoot. Our sources tell us the actors have no clue what will be the storyline now.

Where Kkusum actors complain that Sony has been concentrating on Jassi since many months, Sony has been busy pulling up its socks to face Millee on Star Plus. In an effort to counter its hype, Sony has planned Kumud's wedding in a Marathi style with celebrities dropping in.

Kkusum was an important show for Balaji Telefilms. It used to be talked about in the same breath as Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. Will it loose its loyal audience to Mille or will it be able to get back its lost glory?
