Coronation Street characters Sunita Alahan and Karl Munro are about to embark on a steamy affair, it has been reported.

The new Rovers barmaid, who is portrayed by 45-year-old actress Shobna Gulati, will reportedly enjoy a string of secret sex sessions with pub boss Karl (John Michie) behind his unknowing partner Stella's back.

Coronation Street boss Phil Collinson told the Daily Star: "There [have] been suggestions about Karl's wandering eye but we're going to see it for ourselves. Sunita is not someone you would expect, which makes it even more brilliant.

"It'll play out for quite a while, but all hell will break loose when Stella finds out."

Gulati recently hinted that romance could be in the air for Sunita in 2012, saying: "I think [this will be a big year], because she interacts with different people. And I think Sunita may be puckering up - maybe not with [husband] Dev!"

Stella is played by former EastEnders actress Michelle Collins, who came under attack from various fans when she first tackled the Manchester accent.

"The stick she got at the start was really unfair," Collinson said. "But she didn't cave in and now fans have accepted her in this new role."

LOL

Sunita did look hot in the bar.

Fantastic

It's about time they started using Sunita without Dev hanging onto every one of her scenes.

Great news, I like the character of Sunita, Dev isn't good enough for her.

But poor Stella They will have to line up someone nice for her instead then, I was unsure about Michelle in the role at first, she's a great actress, but I thought I would only be able to see her as Cindy Beale, but she's done well and I hope she stays around. Leanne's gonna need her.....

Hopefully this will make Sunita more exciting, Shobna is wasted in the Corner Shop

Not another affair, no doubt the Corrie writers will try to inject lots of comedy for the OMGZ ISN'T IT SO FUNNY reaction.

If anyone deserves to have an affair, it's Sunita.

Better than EastEnders version (constant crying and misery) and Hollyoaks version (constant dry humping)

I would rather watch their versions and Emmerdales for that matter.

If we were talking about Gavin Blyth's (RIP ) Emmerdale sure, but Stuart Blackburn's Emmerdale is terrible

Shobna far outshines Jimmi Harkashin, I have to wonder how much longer Dev will last
