Dad Boney Kapoor was also of the same opinion

Mithun Chakraborty, Janhvi Kapoor and Govinda
Mithun Chakraborty, who features in the promos of the upcoming small screen show, Chikoo Ki Mummy Durr Kei, was not exactly the first choice. The makers were keen to rope in Janhvi Kapoor (and pay her a bomb) as it is a mother-daughter relationship saga. She did not evince interest as she does not want to do television at this stage of her career, nor did the show’s concept appeal to her. Dad Boney Kapoor was also of the same opinion. As dance is also integral to the drama, the makers then turned to Govinda, who is known for his dancing prowess, but he turned down the offer. It was then decided to approach the disco king to grab eyeballs. Chikoo Ki Mummy Durr Kei features Patiala Babes actor Paridhi Sharma in the lead role. The small screen is increasingly turning to veteran stars for their promos. Rekha was part of the Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyar Meiin campaign and also features in the promos of the upcoming Salman Khan-hosted Bigg Boss 15.
