Zee TV's new show, Phir Subah Hogi produced by Panglosean Entertainment, Rajesh Chadha and Saurabh Srivastava will see the comeback of Narayani Shastri to fiction after a gap of 2 years. She was last seen in Real TV's Namak Haraam.

As TellyBuzz exclusively reported, the show will focus on a social evil prevailing in Madhya Pradesh. It discusses a certain custom wherein daughters born in the family are forced to go through a ritual wherein they get sold to rich Thakurs, who derive pleasure by being with the teenage girls.

As per our source, "Narayani Shastri will essay the role of a girl who gets sold to a Thakur. Varun Badola has been tipped to play the main negative lead in the show. Presently, he is in talks to play the role of the Thakur who forcibly weds Narayani Shastri. However, Varun has apparently got another plump role in his kitty, that of the main negative lead in Star Plus' latest offering, Sajda Tere Pyar Mein. It's now to be seen whether Varun becomes the next big baddie on Star Plus or Zee TV."

We contacted Narayani who told Tellybuzz, " Yes, I have been approached for the show but nothing is confirmed yet."

The show will have its launch in the end of March or early April. The lead faces have not yet been finalized.

This is really a second Agle Janam...I am tired of these type of shows with the same old boring and stupid concepts...Pls Zee tv...whatever you want to do...you can do...but pls don't do anything to Pavitra Rishta and Ram Milaayi jodi...I mean they must not get replaced or their time changed!!!! Anyways...Varun should choose Sajda Tere Pyar mein rather then these boring types of shows...Sajda is a far better show with a fresh new concept...anyways...welcome back narayani!!!

This topic has been done to death. Time to move on Zee. Come up with something original rather than the same ghisa-pitta drama of sexual exploitation.

So some show on zee is getting an axe for this
i like zee as it is dont want any changes
and i see this show flopping badly coz the whole rural exploitation against women has become an overdone plot
and its looks like a joke now instead of awareness
and all for money!!

dear god! ... not another show on crime against girls ... yes, yes, we know the logic - you want to spread the message and create awareness

but we also know that this is complete rubbish ... i don't remember one serial on crime against woman that actually had anything positive in it or had a good message ... it was just an excuse for cringe worthy scenes and vulgar dialogues

... So zee, pls don't pick up serious topics ... you suck at them ... can you not show anything happy or positive ?
