New face of `Kkusum'

AFTER 645 episodes, Nausheen Ali Sardar, the face of "Kkusum" (Sony TV, Monday-Thursday, 9 p.m.) has changed. Manasi is the new Kkusum. The story revolves round a middle-class girl with strong values, whose only aim in life is to give her family the best of everything. The queen of soaps, Ekta Kapoor has been trying to revamp "Kkusum" as the serial was not doing too well. Ekta tried all the tricks including her famous fast-forward formula (the focus shifting to the next generation) to push the TRPs. Ekta believes that a popular serial needs to be re-invented after 500 episodes. Now the big question is whether Manasi can make it more interesting.
