UTV seems to be on a roll now, after the launch of
its new show Maayke se bandhi… Dor on Star Plus!! After remaking the
popular Tamil show Kolangal, UTV will now be making the Hindi version
of yet another super hit Tamil series, Metti Oli.
Metti Oli is an award winning show televised on Sun TV, which has had a run of more than 800 episodes. It is the story of five sisters who live with their father. The casting process is on for the show, and is expected to go on floor by next month. The Hindi version we hear, will have a backdrop of Haryana, to be precise, Panipat.
Our source states, "Lot many known names have been approached. Anjali Abrol who was last seen in Star Plus' Raja Ki Ayegi Baraat, Smriti Kalra of Zee TV's 12/24 Karol Bagh and Aanchal Sabharwal are few names who have been considered".
We contacted Anjali Abrol who says, "Yes, talks are on but nothing has been finalized.
Aanchal Sabharwal states, "I have been approached for the show and I have given a look test too. But I have not got any confirmation from the production house".
Smriti Kalra remained unavailable for comments!
We tried contacting Mayuree Chaddha, Fiction Head, UTV but she remained unavailable.

If Smiriti to be a cast of this show, I agree with my friend Kalyani aka Kalabhi, that she should be given a different role (in terms of sacrificing) from that of Karol Bagh. After reading about Metti Oli, I would like Smiriti to be the youngest daughter, Bavani and not the second daughter, Saroja.All the best to Smiriti and also Neil, a unique pair.

Metti Oli was one of the most popular shows in tamil some years ago.. very excited and looking forward to seeing the hindi remake of it. Casting Smiriti in the show is a very good choice, we all would love to see her again on television. Good luck to Smiriti.
