YRF TV has many new shows in the pipeline to be launched on Sony TV. Shows like Bhagya now re-titled Kismat, season two of Mahi Way and Khotey Sikkey (earlier called Duty Bound) all set to hit the screen soon. Khotey Sikkey which is done with its shoot will be launched by January 21. A bi-weekly it will air on Fridays and Saturdays. The news is like other channels, Sony too is entering the early prime-time slot now. The show will have different cases solved in each episode and will be a 26-part series. A channel source says, “The new show is likely to get the new slot of 7 to 8 pm.” Sony wrapped up Crime Patrol on December 26 and hence the 11 pm slot is vacant in the weekends besides the early time slot. The prime time is full up with Comedy Ka Jubilee and CID. Khotey Sikkey is a fresh and interesting concept, which deals with urban crime. It has a fresh cast, which includes five teenagers and a duty-bound cop, Inspector Damodar played by Vikas Kumar of Powder fame. Another known face is Hasan Zaidi who was seen in Sabki Ladli Bebo. He is an alcoholic and drives fast which creates a lot of problems in his life. Puru Chibber seen in Rishta.com, Seven and in the movie Band Baja Baraat plays a flirt, loves to gamble over girls and other things. Fresh faces like Sukmini Sadhana who plays a superstar’s sister in the show, is a typical South Mumbai girl, desires to be a model, a little aloof and refrains from getting emotionally attached. She is intelligent and loves to blow up money. Mark Parikh who plays a computer hacker and Dilkhush who plays the youngest khotta sikka, is adventurous, who loves thrills and weapons and is a bit na?ve. Says a source, “Initially the five teens will not be connected; they will be seen indulging in different crimes which make them land up in jail. All five are rich and spoilt and it’s crime which will lead them to work with the cop, and thus they will help him to solve the cases.” Hasan confirmed the news with us and Kumar remained unavailable to comment.
