The reboot version of Ekta Kapoor's hit show 'Kasautii Zindagii Kay' is all set to hit the television screens on September 25. While the producer is yet to announce the name of the actors who will be playing Komolika and Mr Bajaj, she recently revealed how did she zero in on Parth Samthaan and Erica Fernandes for Anurag and Prerna's roles.

During the show's launch event in Kolkata, speaking about Erica's casting, Ekta had said, "I think this thing is unbelievable and even Erica doesn't know about it. I came for a holiday to Kolkata with 2 of my friends, 2-3 years back. I remember somebody had put up a promo of Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke Aise Bhi on Facebook. One of my friends and I saw the promo. And I instantly made a call to someone and asked, 'who's this girl?' They said her name is Erica. I wanted to cast her since the day I saw her in promo. And then I offered her the show as soon as hers ended."

And what promopted her to cast Parth Samthaan? "I saw Parth’s picture and I was like, “This boy... look at the depth in his eyes!” Men don’t have it. These days good looks are all about big biceps, six-pack abs, walking around with a strut and talking about how many women they’ve been with. I mean, come on! You need to have depth. You need to have class. Parth was the Anurag I wanted today," Ekta earlier revealed to Telegraph.
