Sony TV shared the first promo of the much-awaited show, Kavya- Ek Jazba, Ek Junoon, starring Sumbul Touqeer. The actress who mesmerised her fans with her titular role in the Star Plus show Imlie is all set to return to the small screen as the determined IAS officer in the new series. Sumbul’s fans were eagerly waiting to witness her acting skills again, and the promo promises to deliver a strong character and gripping storyline.

The first look of Kavya- Ek Jazba, Ek Junoon was shared on the official Instagram handle of Sony TV with an inspiring caption, “Jahaan Maqsad bade hote hain, wahan imtihaan har pal dene hote hain! When your ambitions are big, you have to give tests at every moment)” The promo starts with a crucial episode in the life of young Kavya as she witnesses her father seek justice for her deceased sister in front of a government official. In her innocence, she asks her mother why everyone is ignoring her father’s plea. Her mother tells her the harsh truth that in our society no one listens to the common man and asks, “Hum aapki madad kaise kar sakte hai (how may I help you)?”

The scene shifts to a grown-up Kavya (Sumbul Touqeer) who is now an officer in the municipality of Lucknow. She walks in with authority but changes her demeanour and bends down to approach a crying young girl, repeating her mother’s words. The child embraces her, touched by her compassion.

Her will to help the common man pulled me towards this story that will see her wanting to be an IAS officer. Despite belonging to a middle-class family, she has big ambitions, and the grit that she possesses to face tests, both big and small, to achieve her dream is what made me say yes to the role.”

The release date for Kavya- Ek Jazba, Ek Junoon is yet to be announced by the channel. Sumbul Touqeer was last seen in the reality TV show Bigg Boss 16 and has also been part of the music video Sazishen with Sumedh Mudgalkar.
