Prakruti Mishra, the acclaimed Odiya actress who is basically a find of Zee TV’s Cinestars Ki Khoj will play the lead role in Raakesh Paswan’s show tentatively titled ‘Bitti Businesswali’.

Prakruti has featured in SAB TV’s Trideviyaan and the recent Jai Kanhaiya Lal Ki on Star Bharat.

A credible source states, “There was an extensive search for the female lead of the show as they wanted a very apt face. Finally Prakruti has been signed up.”

We buzzed Prakruti but she remained unavailable.

We reached out to Producer Raakesh Paswan and the channel spokesperson but did not receive revert.

As we know, Abhishek Bajaj has been roped in to play the male lead in the show.

This show will in most probability replace Half Marriage on &TV. We have earlier in the day put up the news of Half Marriage’s closure.
