Mega talent hunt for actors for 'Kyunki's 20-year leap

New Delhi, Apr 26 (UNI) Wannabe actors and singers in India never had it so good what with a host of talent hunt shows on various television channels providing them a window of opportunity to enter the "Mumbai dream world".

Adding to the host of talent hunt shows, television producer Ekta Kapoor has now announced the launching of a mega talent hunt for actors to essay the Next Generation of the Virani family in the popular soap opera 'Kyunki Saas bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi'.

''Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, the flagship soap from Balaji Telefilms Ltd, which has been ruling the TRP charts for the last five years, is all set to take a 20-year leap this June.

In our endeavour to search for new faces, creative team of 'Kyunki...' is stepping out of the country's "glamour capital" Mumbai,''a spokesperson of Balaji telefilms told UNI here.

As part of its talent search, Balaji Telefilms will conduct auditions across several cities of North India.

So, while the auditions for selecting actors for the show will be held in New Delhi on April 29 and 30 at Noida's Marwah Studios, they will be followed by auditions in Shimla on May 1 at Chaura Maidan College.

Auditions will also be held in Chandigarh on May 2 at the Dev Samaj College for Girls.
