ETimes TV has learned that talks are underway, nearing finalization between Aakash and the production house for this yet-to-be-titled project, promising an entirely new avatar for the actor.
Sources close revealed, “Aakash Ahuja, known for his role in ‘Faltu,’ is in the final stages of negotiations to lead a new show on the same channel. While the show’s concept remains undisclosed, it is anticipated to bring forth a distinctive storyline, showcasing Aakash in an unprecedented character portrayal.”
Limited details are available about the forthcoming show at this stage.
Aakash Ahuja previously portrayed the character of Ayaan Mittal in ‘Faltu,’ where he was paired opposite Niharika Chouksey. Expressing disappointment upon the show’s conclusion after nine months, Aakash conveyed his emotions to BT, citing disparity in opportunities for other underperforming shows while their consistently performing series met an abrupt end.
