Barun Sobti to do Sony show ?


 

 

It seems Barun Sobti’s lady luck is shining bright. Quick on the heels of his soon to be launched romantic web series Tanhaiyan (Four Lions) withSurbhi Jyoti (Qubool Hai fame) on Hotstar, he may be doing a show forSony TV as well. Details of the same are sketchy so far, but if sources are to be believed it might be with Surbhi again. The promo of the same will also be cut soon. 

Barun who hit it big with Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon went through a rough patch after he quit the aboveStar Plus show (2012) due to ill- health. He tried his luck in Bollywood, which didnt click. His only release till date Main Aur Mr. Riight sank without a trace back in 2014. Two of his other film projects are also yet to see the light of day. One of them is 22 Yards,a cricket film and the other is John Abraham produced Satra Ko Shaadi Hai.

The silver lining on the film front was his football flick Tu Hai Mera Sunday(Co stars Shahana Goswami and Vishal Malhotra etc), which was screened at Cannes Film Festival and also won accolades at the recent MAMI film fest.

Everybody is betting big on digital and Barun has a huge online fan base, so chances of its success are high. We sure hope that Barun’s new TV show is something different and not saas bahu routine, cos he is a talented actor.

Barun had tried to come back to the tube earlier this year as well with Zee TV project Satya Kiran,which sadly did not take off due to internal reasons. Here is hoping he gets lucky this time.

We tried to touch base with Barun,but he was not available for comment
