IWM buzz: Ankit Arora's wait is over, to enter Prithvi Vallabh

Ankit Arora will be seen in a pivotal role in the Sony historical show.

Versatile actor Ankit Arora who has recently donned negative roles in Chandrakanta and Chakravartin Ashoka Samrat will soon be seen in Sony TV and Writers' Galaxy's Prithvi Vallabh.

Ankit who has been shooting for a while, will now enter the story line is what we have been told.

Ankit will play the role of Vikramjeet, the younger brother of King of Bhillum who would aide Mrinal (Sonarika Bharodia) in her fight against Prithvi (Ashish Sharma).

A credible source tells us, "Ankit's character will be manipulative, and will fall for Mrinal and her beauty. In order to gain power he will also be seen playing mind games with Tailap (Jitin Gulati).

When contacted, Ankit confirmed the news saying, "Yes, I have been shooting for a while now, but my entry is slated to happen now. I have earlier played negative characters in Ashoka and Chandrakanta. But this negative role is quite different from what I have played. I essay the role of Vikramjeet. I am looking forward to this role.

Here's wishing Ankit all the very best for this biggie!!
