There is a different Paani in Star One's Paani Puri. Homi Wadia, who was playing the role of Mr. Paani in Paani Puri is replaced by veteran actor Tiku Talsania. Tiku was last seen on television in the show Hum Hai Na on Doordarshan.

A source from the production house informed, "Tiku Talsania was the first choice for this role. However, he couldn't take up our show owing to lack of dates. Now the production house is facing the same problem with Homi Wadia as he has to honour his theatre commitments. Homi and the production house couldn't arrive at any solution. So the producers approached Tiku Talsania. This time, he had dates for the show."

Tiku Talsania says, "I am having a great time working in this show. I have shot two episodes and I enjoyed myself thoroughly. It's great fun to work with Sumeet Raghavan and Bhavna Balsaver. The comedy that I will be doing here is very subtle. It is a nice role."

Tiku will make his debut in the show on September 27.
