TV show <i>Madhubala</i> to take leap, Vivian D'Sena quits
The chemistry of the lead couple – Vivian D’Sena and Drashti Dhami was much appreciated in the show.
Mumbai: The story of popular TV show Madhubala - Ek Ishq Ek Junoon will take a leap forward by a few years in February, and it will lose its male lead Vivian D'Sena, who plays the role of superstar Rishabh Kundra aka R K.

However, the show will introduce new characters.

"Come February, Madhubala - Ek Ishq, Ek Junoon, will undergo a leap. The leap will be a natural progression which will present a fresh storyline and perspective to the strong audience base who have loved the show and watched it consistently since it first launched," a spokesperson for the channel said.

"As is norm, we will see the inclusion of new characters following the leap who will support the show's story as it moves forward," the spokesperson added.

Though the channel has not said anything about Vivian leaving the show, the actor took to microblogging website Twitter to reveal that he is quitting the show.

"Hey guys the news you all have heard is unfortunately 100 percent true. Madhubala is taking a leap and I won't be a part of it after the leap," he tweeted on January 22.

He has thanked his fans for loving him and his character in the show.

"Guys thanks a ton...R.K. was never possible without you guys. Whatever I am today is only because of you all. Don't worry I will be back with a bang," Vivian added.

Madhubala - Ek Ishq, Ek Junoon, which went on air in 2012, features Drashti Dhami in the title role. Recently, the show introduced a new character KRK (Keval Ram Khuswami), R K's twin brother. But it seems even the double role failed to grab the audience's attention.
