Abhay Vakil who is currently seen in <em> Salaam Zindgi </em> is going to head his father’s business after his death last month. He is not quitting television but waiting for a meaty role to come his way. “I lost my father last month and now his business has going for a toss. I need to concentrate on that first,” says Abhay.

Abhay Vakil is one helluva lucky actor in tellydom who did not have to wait for roles to come his way. The actor has recently returned from USA after shooting for an International film (Eye Fight) and is all set to shoot for a new show on Sahara One titled <em>Zaara.</em> Produced by Edit Two, the actor plays the main lead opposite a new face on television Samiksha Jug (lead actor from South Indian film industry) and Bunty Grewal (model turned actor). Zaara will be a family drama woven around a Muslim family with the backdrop of love and passion.

Tellystars generally aspire for Hindi films but there are a select few who are lucky enough to bag a good film, that too an English film! Abhay Vakil of <em>Palkhi</em> fame is one of them.
