A few years ago, every second show on Indian Television would be called a dramatic show but that’s not the case anymore. There are a few selected shows that are dramatic in true sense with the right blend of emotions. Accordingly, the Twelfth Indian Telly Awards has nominated a few of them. The list reads as follows:

Shaleen Malhotra, the action hero of Indian television is the one who plays the character of ACP Arjun in Star Plus’ Arjun (4 Lions Films). “He is the one who has redefined the concept of action on small screen,” said a TV fan. Personally, Shaleen, is well trained in martial arts and kickboxing. He is crazy about bikes and lives by the word 'adventure'.

Now, this is one actor who has impressed everyone in a small span of time via his acting histrionics enacting Amit in Sony Entertainment Television’s <em>Amita Ka Amit</em> (Swastik Productions).

Of late Tellychakkar.com has been regularly writing about the different actors and shows that have been nominated in The Twelfth Indian Telly Awards. Taking this trend forward, today we write about the shows that are nominated in the ‘Weekly Serial’ category.

After watching Mudit Nayar on screen, you will realize that the future of television industry is indeed in good hands.

Yes, we are talking about the beautiful looking girl, Shamin Mannan, who entered the hearts of TV viewers with her debut performance as Bhoomi in Colors’ <em>Sanskaar Dharohar Apno Ki</em> (Anahita and Cinemantra Productions).

The Government of India’s main motive behind coming up with television programmes was to educate the audience at large. However, with privatization coming into the picture, TV got commercial and saas bahu dramas started airing across the GECs. This is when the educational and awareness programmes were put on the back burner. But there are a few makers who do make shows based on social messages and real-life occurrences and we think that they need to be motivated. Therefore, the Twelfth Indian Telly Awards has nominated a few shows under the category, Programme with a Social Message’.

Earlier, in the day we wrote about a few bold and beautiful ladies of the television industry who are disliked by their on-screen families for their evil minds and deeds.

The Twelfth Indian Telly Awards has put these men in the category of Actors in a Negative Role. Here, have a look at the list…
