Partaayyyy hard Jodha Akbar guys. The show has hit the impressive figure of 500 episodes.

Kya baat kya baat (like Mithun da from DID).

This Balaji Telefilms’ venture on Zee TV will beam its 500^th episode tomorrow but the cast and crew have already started celebrating. They cut a cake on the sets yesterday to ring in the celebration.  

We got in touch with the show’s female lead Paridhi Sharma aka Jodha who shared, “It’s a wonderful feeling. It’s all because of our hard work and dedication. I would thank Ekta ma’am (Kapoor) for making this show. I would also thank my family and husband for supporting me. I pray and hope that we keep achieving more such feats.”

Ravi Bhatia, who is playing the role of Salim, added, “I feel blessed to be a part of the show. Jodha Akbar has changed my life. The entire cast is like my family and hope that we keep entertaining our viewers.”

Hang on…more news to dole out here!!!

We have also heard that two new actors have been signed for the project. They are Melanie Pais of Geet fame and very talented Kamalika Guha (who is currently seen in Zindagi Wins).

According to our sources, Melanie will have both negative and positive shades. Positive character will be called Leela and negative Laboni, who would know black magic. Laboni will create trouble in Jodha and Akbar’s life. And Kamalika will portray Melanie’s mother.

Melanie confirmed and stated, “Yes, I have started shooting and I will be seen playing two different roles.”

We tried calling Kamalika but she remained unavailable for a comment.

We wish everyone lots of luck and success!
