Ekta Kapoor to launch a show on Star One

Balaji Telefilms and Star have had a long running association which started more than a decade ago.

But with Star Plus deciding to end Ekta’s long running shows Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki, the rapport between them got sour. And as we think that the channel has put the final nail in the coffin by ending Ekta’s only two shows airing on the channel, Tujh Sang Preet Lagayi Sajna and Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil, the news is that Ekta is already planning to launch a big show, this time on Star One.

According to our source, “Ekta and the channel have already started the audition process for the new show to launch on Star One. The serial is adapted from the very popular novel Twilight which was also made into a movie. The production house wants to get a fresh new cast for the show, and this will be one of the major projects on Star One”.

As per our source, “Star One has made a deal with the organizers of IPL, and they will be promoting their new Star One shows during the IPL season. Promos of their upcoming shows, Odhani Rang Badalti Jaaye of Yash Patnaik and Geet of Endemol will be aired during IPL, which will be followed by a huge promotion for the Ekta Kapoor show. The show is expected to launch sometime after IPL”.

We tried calling Ekta Kapoor, but she remained unavailable. We could not any answer from the Star Officials too.

What with the first move being taken, we can now expect Ekta to come back on Star Plus too in the near future…
