In tonight's episode of Kya Huaa Tera Vaada on Sony Entertainment Television, Tarun confronts Anushka and asks her about the case.

But Anu (Mauli Ganguly) pretends to be innocent and puts the whole blame on Pradeep (Pawan Shankar) saying he used and dumped her for Mona.

Tarun is taken aback by Anu's outbursts and does not believe his sister. For him, Mona (Mona Singh) cannot be wrong. Says RaunaqAhuja aka Tarun, "I don't suspect foul play yet as I also believe Anu is innocent. I'm the good guy".

Meanwhile, Mona plots with Shantabai and makes a secret plan to sneak into Anu's house to find evidence. While all this happening, the show takes a dramatic turn with Taani wanting to call off her engagement to Tarun, leaving everyone shell shocked! But Mona intervenes and explains things to Taani (Priya Chauhan).

Mona's plan with Shantabai seems to be working as she asks Anu for employment and manages to get a job in her house. Shantabai starts searching Anu's house when the Jha asks Mona for proof to show that Shaurya and Anushka were married. Mona is panic stricken and quickly dials Shantabai but there is no response.

Will Shantabai turn against Mona and will Mona succeed in her mission remains to be seen as KHTV takes twists and turns to keep viewers guessing!

Pradeep (Pawan Shankar) may soon bid goodbye to 'Kya Huaa Tera Vaada'. The grapevine has it that he will be shown dead, with the show taking a time leap of 10 to 15 years. But there are also reports that Pradeep's death is just a gimmick and he will be brought back into the show later.

We had earlier reported about Mouli Gangulyaka Anoushka Sarkar planning to quit the show, owing to creative differences. Apparently, Sukirti Khandpal and Siddhi have been approached to play Pawan and Mona's grown-up on-screen daughters — Bulbul and Rano, respectively. Pawan didn't revert to our text message.

TV czarina Ekta Kapoor continues her love for time leaps in her shows. Now her soap "Kya Huaa Tera Vaada" is soon set to be going ahead in time.

The show might witness a leap of nine or 15 years, a source told.

"Kya Huaa Tera Vaada", aired on Sony, features actors Mona Singh and Pawan Shankar in the prominent roles of Mona and Pradeep, respectively.

The current track shows Pradeep being framed by Anushka Sarkar (Mouli Ganguly) for the murder of Shaurya Mitra (Chetan Hansraj), while Mona is trying hard to prove her husband Pradeep is innocent.
Who will remain in the show, and who will exit it post the leap is still unknown.

The news of the leap comes just a day after it was officially announced that Ekta's "Pavitra Rishta", aired on Zee TV, will take a six-month leap next week.

Indian television probably had never seen such outpouring of emotions when Barun Sobti decided to quit the hugely popular show 'Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon'. The show went off the air breaking millions of hearts. Following Barun's 'quitting', are Ankita Lokhande, Shivaji Satam, Pawan Shanker, Sriti Jha and Harshad Chopra, who are all leaving or are on the verge of leaving their signature shows. The reason that the actors offered when it came to leaving their respective shows halfway might vary from 'moving on to better career prospects' to 'refusal to grow old on screen' but it also raises the same old debate, do Indian TV soaps run out of steam after a certain amount of time, causing a sense of fatigue for viewers and lead actors?

In the initial heady days actors were thrilled to be part of saas-bahusoaps and even stuck to the show till it went off air. But times have changed since then as the landscape of the Indian television industry now boasts of more GECs which means a fractured viewership that's changed the rules of telly viewing.

Actors need to stay on
When a lead star quits a show, it sends the producer/broadcaster in panic mode. The most obvious answer is to get a replacement actor. Scarred by the rejection of new actors stepping into shoes of popular leads, producers are wary of treading the same path and prefer to either 'send off' the lead or 'kill him/her off'. Actor Aditya Redij says, "I quitNaa Aana Is Des Laado as I had inhibitions about playing an 18-year-old's father. If the makers keep an actor creatively happy, why will he/she quit?" Aishwarya Sakuja shares, "An actor playing the lead has to be available for a long period as the story line revolves around him/her. But, if an actor feels a sense of monotony, then there are many waiting to be in their shoes."Karan Kundra says, "It is impossible for me to be a part of any show beyond a year. When I started with Kitni Mohabbat Hai, Ekta Kapoor was clear on not extending the story beyond a point and we wrapped season one gracefully and came back with 160 episodes of season 2."

Long running soaps end on a whimper Most top shows, from Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi(1830 episodes), Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki (1700 episodes), Dill Mill Gayye (721 episodes) to the more recent Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon? (398 episodes) started on a high note, showing lots of promise and generating fan frenzy. When it came to their closure, the shows ended abruptly, an indication that the production houses had no choice, but to hurry up with the storylines, upsetting loyal audiences. Producer Sumeet Mittal shares, "Producers have a long story on mind when a daily soap airs. But, if we have to wrap it due to low TRPs, we do try to do justice to it."

We'll be back after a season break Shows with returning after a season break has always worked in the West. Following the footsteps of popular shows like Sex And The City, Grey's Anatomy and Lost, some popular Indian TV shows have also tried the 'second season' experiment In the past soaps, seasons of shows like Karamchand, Baa Bahoo Aur Baby, Kitani Mohabbat Hai, Na Bole Tum have been aired, with mixed results, says, "Yes, introducing a second season is definitely a good option. When shows come back on a fresh note, it definitely works. There is no point dragging the soaps without any relevance. Second season of a show like Na Tum Bole Na Maine Kuuch Kaha is awaited by fans eagerly."

In the end, it's not a jaded story line but a mint-fresh story line evolving continuously with powerful performances that does the trick. But with tracks being changed, altered story-lines, lead characters quitting the show — you never know in which way the show takes a turn.
