K Street Pali Hill

Vipul Gupta (aka Drone) has shifted from Ekta Kapoor's upmarket address <em>K Street, Pali Hill</em>. Vikaas Sethi (aka Swayam of <em>Kahiin To Hoga</em>) has filled in the vacancy. In what seems to be a very mysterious replacement, Creative Head Sandeep Sikand from Balaji, merely quips, "Star Plus said that they wanted a change in face."

Is the lead protagonist of Ekta Kapoor's late-night thriller <em>K Street, Pali Hill</em> unhappy because she has to cool her heels a bit too much on the sets of the serial? Another buzz doing the rounds is that Jaswir Kaur herself reoports late on the sets and keeps others waiting. Whatever the version, the truth's that there's trouble brewing at the upmarket address <em>K STreet, Pali Hill</em>. Last week, the girl in question threatened to leave the show.

Not Parvati. It's Avantika, who's going to get bumped off in the bomb blast engineered by Sasha in <em>Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii</em>. That spells the end of Avantika, Nivedita Bhattacharya in real life, who luckily, has another role running in Balaji's other show <em>K Street Pali Hill</em>.

A look at how TV stars observe the holy month preceding Eid Aamna Shariff loves the aroma that permeates her house once Ramzan is on. "That's because there's always something special cooking each day of the month," she sighs longingly. Rakshanda Khan looks forward to the bowls of fruit custard that she relishes without any gastronomic regrets each evening. Nausheen's piece de resistance is sevaiya and biryani, Aly Khan's epicurean delights begin with khajoor and chat.

The insecurities, hectic pace and round-the-clock happenings of Indian television have had their toll on one more actor. But evicted from Ekta Kapoor's K. Street, Pali Hill, Aly Khan is not taking it lying down. Vickey Lalwani caught up with the livid actor: "I am flabbergasted that I have been removed from <em>K. Street, Pali Hill</em> without anyone bothering to inform me. I was busy getting ready on a shoot when some insignificant person from the sets came over and broke the news to me.
