Where is the year old Miilee headed? While the producers insist that the show has been granted a year long extension, the channel insists on waiting till March to take a decision on Miilee's fate. Meanwhile, the lead of the show, Mona Wasu, seems adamant about quitting the show and moving to films by the end of May. "Yes, we have got an extension for a year and I am very happy about it. The story is now concentrating on the college track and now Miilee has become a youth icon of sorts," says co-producer Raman Kumar, who points out that Rahul's character played by Ajay Gehi will be back on the show in April. While Kumar is confident of an extended run, Star India's creative head Shailja Kejriwal has a different story to tell. "The fact is that there have been no discussions on the issue. We will take a good look at the show till March and then take a decision," points out Kejriwal, adding that Mona Wasu's contract expires only in April, and thus there's no question of her talking about quitting the show. "I have a contract till 6 April, but I have agreed to work till May end. After that, I am quitting the show. I don't know what they will do, now that the show has got an extension. Maybe they will look for a replacement or work on a different track altogether," says Mona, pointing out that she had let both the channel and the production house know of her decision to quit in December 2005. "I had given myself time to work in television...now that time's up and now it's best for my career that I move to something else. I want to do films, as well as devote time to myself," sighs Mona, who seems to have made up her mind on the issue. Another thread that seems to be still hanging loose is the Rahul, aka Ajay Gehi issue. Is he in or out? No one seems to be in the know. While Raman Kumar points out that Ajay will return in April, the actor has no idea of his comeback. "They haven't asked me for any dates and I have no clue about what's happening. Anyway, If they call me, I will decide only after I have had a meeting with both the channel and the production house. I will decide on a comeback only if Rahul's character comes back in a big way," opines Ajay. Asked if he has got a raw deal as far as Miilee was concerned, Ajay is forthright in his opinion. "Definitely. In the beginning, Miilee was supposed to be a love story, with Rahul's character getting as much importance as Miillee's, but I don't know what happened! The character didn't shape up as it was supposed to. I don't know who to blame!" sighs the actor, who seems to have no clue about the fate of the show that launched him on TV. Knotty affair, this!
