Gurmeet approached to play the lead opposite Sanaya in Nautanki Telefilms' next on Colors

Gurmeet Choudhary is surely on a roll, when it comes to getting offered the best of roles on TV. Post his successful stints as leads in Star One’s Geet Hui Sabse Parayi and Zee TV’s Punar Vivah, the actor is being flooded with interesting offers. As reported by media earlier, he was approached for the sequel of Gunahon Ka Devta to be produced by the Producer of Lapataganj on SAB TV, Ashwini Dheer. We now hear that the talented actor has been approached by Nautanki Telefilms for their upcoming show on Colors. As we know, Saurabh Tewari’s next on Colors already has the vivacious Sanaya Irani as the lead. And the hunt is presently on for the lead guy, who will play a BSF officer. Amongst lot many known faces approached for the show, Gurmeet happens to be one. We hear that the makers were keen on casting him as the lead opposite Sanaya. A reliable source states that Gurmeet has been in consideration for a while. However, he usually quotes an exorbitant amount, as the man is keener on doing films now. Yet another source though told us that Gurmeet was indeed approached for the new show on Colors, but he did not fit well into the role. If sources are to be believed, Ashish Sharma, last seen in Zee TV’s Rab Se Sohna Isshq is also in talks presently for the lead role. The yet untitled show will launch on Colors post the culmination of Bigg Boss sometime in December 2013, and will take the 9.30 PM slot. We tried contacting Gurmeet, but he did not reply to our calls and text messages till the time of filing the article. Let’s see who bags the role opposite Sanaya in this Colors show.
