Ever since Ekta announced the second season of hit show Kasauti Zindagi Kay, audience can’t hold back their excitement to know who’ll play who. The first promo of the show introduced that Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke actress Erica Fernandes will essay the character of Prerna but maker of the show decided to keep the identity of male lead hidden. But later on news was leaked in media that Parth Samthaan will be essaying Anurag on the show. Though it was leaked but neither Ekta nor Parth gave the confirmation to the buzz till the second promo of Kasautii Zindagi Kay went on-air unveiling the male lead of the show.

Currently team is in shooting in Kolkata. In an interaction with media Ekta Kapoor revealed to media that Erica was always in Ekta’s mind even before she thought of remaking the show. Ekta said, “I think this thing is unbelievable and even Erica doesn’t know about it. I came for a holiday to Kolkata with 2 of my friends, 2-3 years back. I remember somebody had put up a promo of Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke Aise Bhi on Facebook. One of my friends and I saw the promo. And I instantly made a call to someone and asked, ‘who’s this girl?’ They said her name is Erica. I wanted to cast her since the day I saw her in promo. And then I offered her the show as soon as hers ended.”

Now you know that Erica didn’t audition for the show but Ekta offered her to play Prerna in remake of her hit show. On being asked how she zeroed on Parth Samthaan, Ekta said, “As for Parth, I auditioned many guys but none had the eyes that speak like his does. I saw his picture and casted him.”
