Cut it short!
That seems to be the anthem of the leading ladies on television right now. After swinging curtains of tresses that was the norm a while ago, actresses are going in for the absolute short look.
Take a look at Urvashi Dholakia in Kasautii Zindagi Kay. She has swapped the fancy hairdo she sported in favour of a tomboy look. The intricate bindis and long earrings however stay intact. Urvashi seems to be vying for attention as the vamp of the series with rival Apoorna (Geetanjali Tikekar) who has taken to wearing a brown wig that cascades over her shoulders!
Across channels, on Zee TV to be precise, Niki Aneja has abandoned the simple look she sported and is now being seen as a trendy lady too. This has happened post her accident, in which she has lost her memory!
Will the short hairstyle bug bite the rest of the soap brigade ? Wait and watch!
More on Meher!
If you haven't been following this UTV soap on Doordarshan, now's the time to tune in....Meher's going in for a twist in the tale!
A quick recap - Meher's lost her husband Irfan and to protect the millions he's left behind from her scheming twin sister Shabana, Meher plans to tie the knot with her own brother in law, Zayed. To make matters worse, Zayed thinks Meher is Shabana.
If that grips your curiosity enough, turn to Doordarshan on Thursday at 8.30 pm to find out if Meher can win back her identity and perchance, her devar's respect too....
[V] are like that only
With the flavour of the month being reality shows, it's little wonder that the reality genre is receiving some good press.
But with competition building up, comes the inevitable round of mud-slinging. So while Sony claims that its talent hunt is above the clutter,- "nothing like [V]'s hunt" to be more specific. Well, well after that jibe, Sony had it coming.
[V]'s head honcho Amar Deb's repartee to that remark? "Unlike others, we are not sitting 'idle'"(that's a jibe at Sony's Indian Idol, for those a little slow on the uptake). "We have the real heavyweight jury, exclusive to us, unlike some over exposed Nigam." The heavyweight referred to here is of course, singer Adnan Sami who is championing the cause of V's Super Singers.
And what does Deb have to say about the competition? "I don't know why they are even bothering to get into the arena, may be they should just pack their bags and leave." Ouch!!!
Family first for Deepshikha!
Bet you didn't know this. Deepshikha refused two plum assignments when she was expecting her second baby recently. The lady who delivered early this month tells us, "I refused Sonal Sehgal's role in Kasautii Zindagi Kay and Aditi Govitrikar's role in Kkehna Hai Kuch Mujhko. I could not commit to these, since I won't be venturing out for at least 40 days hereafter." Well, who says that the bhartiya nari's modernization has made her throw caution to the winds? Husband Jeet Upen's pub is raining till late every day. And of course, the family is complete. Say cheers!
The party continues….
Manish Goswami's Kittie Party may be over, but the ladies have combined to ensure that their reel party becomes real. The entire Kittie gang will now have a kittie, sorry, a kitty party every month. Reason? A very strong bond that developed between the group which they didn't want to weaken. This gang is a helluva lot concerned about each other. A case in point: Deepshikha in hospital during her delivery stay got her lunch from one kitty member, evening snacks from the second, dinner from the third... Well, we would love to be a fly on this kitty party's wall. The laughter, screaming, bitching... and the non-vegetarian jokes (which are a norm in most such get-togethers)... who doesn't want to hear them?
Maddy's hopping mad…..
Rajesh Khera (Maddy of Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin) is spitting fire. Recently, he was offered four good roles- three from UTV (Kehta Hai Dil and two Hungama projects) and one from the Sagars. But what were they offering him for his services? Peanuts, he says. Despite the perception that the TV industry is growing by leaps and bounds, Khera wants to know: Where is the money going? Why are the actors expected to come at cheap rates? Are the big bucks meant only for those few selected female protagonists? Point noted, Khera. Thankfully, films have given this baldie (by choice) a better deal. "I have short roles in Tango Charlie plus Ram Gopal Varma and Sanjay F Gupta's forthcoming films. But the money has been good and paid on time," he stresses. Hmmm...
Pari's going places
Guess who is Tony and Deeya Singh's current favourite. Not Mona Singh. Not Parmeet Sethi. Not Rakshanda Khan. Apoorva Agnihotri and Gaurav Khera? No way. Manini De! De has been signed to play Miss Talwar in Singh's Baal Baal Bache which is coming up on Sahara shortly. Do we hear them singing Pari Jaissi Koi Nahin?
