The New Year will see a new addition to the cast of SAB weekly sitcom F.I.R. The new member to this gang is none other than actor Ali Asgar.
According to sources, Ali is going to play the character of Hanuman Prasad Pandey that was earlier played by Shiv Pandit.
Despite several attempts, Ali Asgar remained unavailable for comment.
Confirming the news on Ali's entry, an actor says, "Yes, it's true that Ali will be part of the show. However, I don't think he's going to play Shiv's character. We haven't started to shoot with him yet. "
Shiv Pandit had left the show show in September, 2008. However, since F.I.R is a weekly show it normally has a good bank. Besides, the shoot had stalled during the strike period. As a result, the need to have an immediate replacement didn't arise.
