Leap Alert! Pranali Rathod and Akshay Dev Bindra to play lead roles in Kumkum Bhagya!

Zee TV’s beloved show Kumkum Bhagya, known for its emotionally charged drama and compelling storytelling, is all set for a new chapter. With an upcoming generational leap, the show introduces fresh faces and relationships, bringing a new dimension to the narrative. At the center of this leap is Prarthana (played by Pranali Rathod), the daughter of Rajvansh and Poorvi. Raised by a humble Pandit and his wife, she is soft-spoken, hardworking, and devoted to her family. Despite her simple upbringing, she shares a deep friendship with Raunak (played by Akshay Dev Bindra), a charming and flamboyant young man from an affluent family.

Though childhood friends, Prarthana and Raunak come from completely different worlds—one defined by simplicity and responsibility, the other by luxury and privilege. Yet, their friendship remains unshaken through the years. As life takes unexpected turns, their unwavering connection will leave audiences wondering: Kya sachhi dosti mein bhi pyaar ho sakta hai?

Akshay Dev Bindra said, “Making my television debut with Kumkum Bhagya feels absolutely surreal! It’s a show with a remarkable legacy, and I knew I had to give my best when I auditioned for the role. The moment I found out I had bagged it, I was overwhelmed! The entire team is pouring their heart and soul into creating a storyline that keeps audiences hooked, and I can’t wait to see how viewers connect with this new chapter.”

Pranali Rathod said, “The year 2025 is truly special since I am going to be part of an iconic show Kumkum Bhagya. Prarthana is a new and different character for me, and I’m excited to bring her to life. The show has always been known for its heartfelt storytelling and strong relationships, and stepping into this world is a wonderful experience. Kumkum Bhagya has been loved by audiences for years, and I look forward to them embracing this new chapter with the same warmth and enthusiasm.”

With love, heartbreak, and family conflicts at its core, Kumkum Bhagya is all set to return with a gripping new era.
