Mumbai, November 11, 2024: Sony SAB’s ‘Wagle Ki Duniya – Nayi Peedhi Naye Kissey’ continues to bring relatable stories to life, and its recent episode sees Rajesh Wagle’s (Sumeet Raghvan) boss, Kiara (Anju Jadhav), caught in a horrifying financial scam.

Will Rajesh save Kiara from the scam on time?

We hope to not only entertain but also educate our audiences about staying vigilant and taking wise action in difficult situations. Through this storyline, we hope to raise awareness about financial scams and encourage viewers to stay informed and cautious.”

Karuna Pandey, whose real-life experience is the inspiration behind the story, said, “I truly appreciate how Wagle Ki Duniya is addressing such relevant and relatable issues. Having personally experienced a scam like this, I felt it was essential to share my story. If my experience can help others avoid falling into similar traps, then bringing it to life on the show is more than worthwhile.
