“It is challenging to direct a hit series like Kasautii Zindagii Zay”

Says show’s director Muzammil Desai.

Director Muzammil Desai, who has shows like Tere Liye, Dil Hi Toh Hai and Kumkum Bhagya to his credit, now has Ekta Kapoor’s baby Kasautii Zindagii Kay in his kitty.

Muzammil, who dons the director’s hat for Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2, says that helming a series that has been a hit in the past is quite challenging.

“Directing a series which has been a hit is a big challenge. It is not just a challenge, but is a bigger responsibility for one to reach the trademark that is already set. We have all grown up humming the tune of ‘Kasautii Zindagii Kay’ and the day I was told that I am directing this show, a mixture of feelings ran in my blood,” Desai revealed.

He also went on to add, “I got determined and way too focused to put it all my efforts and to try to make it a bigger hit. The hopes and the expectations of my mentor Ekta Kapoor ma’am, my team, my family and my viewers filled in the zeal and enthusiasm to make it what it was. I wish and I hope that I stand strong on the hopes that I have for the show.”

The original Kasautii Zindagii Kay, ran for seven long years and starred Shweta Tiwari, Cezzane Khan and Ronit Roy.

Its reboot, which premiered on Star Plus on September 25, stars Parth Samthaan, Hina Khan and Erica Fernandez in the leads as Anurag, Prerna and Komolika respectively.
