Smriti Irani has produced popular serials like Thodi Si Zameen Thoda Sa Aasmaan, Virrudh and Mere Apne, Smriti Irani is all set to present another serial named as Waaris and it will be telecast in the famous entertainment channel, Zee TV. Smriti, who created history by casting the Evergreen Vinod Khanna in Ugraya Productions’ Mere Apne on 9X has once again come up with an ace as she gets the very popular face of Bollywood, the National Award winner Ashish Vidyarthi to play the dad in her Zee show, Waaris.
An actor par excellence, Ashish Vidyarthi who has donned various villainous roles on the silver screen returns to television after a long gap. A well-placed source says, “Smritiji wanted a well-known face playing the father in Waaris. Ashish Vidyarthi was confirmed just yesterday to play dad to Iqbal Khan and Yuvraj Malhotra in the serial”.
Aashka Goradia of Kkusum fame will be paired opposite Iqbal Khan. When buzzed the actress for confirmation, Aashka said, “Talks are on for the show, but nothing has been confirmed yet”. The dancing sensation Bhawna Roy will make her television debut with Waaris. For the uninitiated, Bhawna Roy who is presently seen in the 9X reality show Vodafone Yeh Hai Jalwa in Hussein Kuwajerwala’s ‘Kal Ke Kalakaar’ team was promised a lead role in Smriti’s upcoming serial, and here is Smriti offering Bhawna a pivotal role in Waaris. In addition to Bhawna Roy, Smriti is planning to cast Khushboo Purohit who was seen in Sharad Malhotra’s ‘Toofani Toli’ in the 9X reality show, Vodafone Yeh Hai Jalwa…
