Zee TV's long running show Maayka is all set to shut shop on August 14th..

Zee TV's long running show Maayka, produced by Creative Eye is slowly but surely nearing its end!!

According to our source, "The buzz about Maayka going off air has been there for the past six months. Eventually the date has arrived when the show will finally bid adieu. 14th August will be the last airing date for Maayka, and the buzz is that Contiloe's Rani Lakshmi Bai will be replacing it from 17th August".

However, as we reported, Zee TV has yet another show in the pipeline, Karol Bagh of Sunshine Productions which is scheduled to launch in August. So its still not clear about the replacement for Maayka.

We tried calling Dheeraj Kumar of Creative Eye, but he remained unavailable for comments.

When asked Abhimanyu Singh of Contiloe about the status of his show, he said, "The channel has not given us any launch date as of now".

We tried calling Ajay Bhalwankar, Programming Head, Zee TV but he remained unavailable for comments.

However, one of the actors from Maayka confirmed to us that the show is indeed nearing its end..

Zee's Maayka which has an emotional tale to tell the viewers of late, with Shabd (Vivan Bhatena) going bankrupt will see a big twist wherein Mahi and Shabd's family will end up coming to the streets. According to our source, "Shabd's property will be auctioned in the coming episodes, as a result of which the entire family will be literally on streets. On the other hand, Jeet (Romit Raj) who has got lost in the success of name, fame and money will provide a cold shoulder to Mahi and Shabd; and his arrogant behavior hurts them even more. Soni who can very well see thro' the change in Jeet because of money is helpless, but is determined to show him that family values more weightage than money. In the meantime, Mahi will be so much hard-pressed for money that she will also believe that she has given away the 'Lakshmi' of her house in the form of her second daughter to Soni. This will lead to an interesting plot wherein Mahi will go to get her daughter back. In the meantime, Jeet's character will see a different shade, which has not been seen before. Ultimately, he will end up facing failure, and this is when Soni makes him realize that money is not everything in life". We called up Vivan Bhatena who accepted the fact that the story is moving towards showing a tiff between the two couples. "Shabd's family will be in poverty, after losing all their property. Also, there will be a phase where we want our kid back, but I don't know how this track is going to proceed". "Mohini who has struggled in the recent past to give her daughters a Maayka, slowly realizes that her daughters are not happy; and she will be a helping hand to them in their times of distress", adds our source. So lots to look forward to when it comes to the drama quotient in Maayka…
