Mallika is a terrorist!

Mallika is a terrorist! The sexy Mallika of Jassi…, will now play a rough and tough terrorist in Star Plus' Saara Akash. Rakshanda Khan who recently sizzled in Star One's Happy Go Lucky, will now be seen in a new avatar. "I would love to play an out an out action role, and this is the closest that I have got," says Rakshanda. This versatile actress has come a long way from playing the scorned Mallika in Jassi…to playing the self confident Tanya in Kyunki… and she is now looking to play different types of characters. She finds the role to be different because of the kind of background the terrorist comes from. "This is not a glamour doll kind of a role. I always wanted to be part of an action role and this was quite akin to one, so I accepted it," says Rakshanda. Marriage made in TV heaven? This looks to be one of those rumoured but not true stories. Rupali Ganguli (Monisha of Star One's Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai and Gayatri of Star Plus' Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii), who has just been "married off" on a popular television chat show, is declaring her single and still ready to mingle status to whoever is willing to listen. On the show, Rupali was even stated to be going against the media trend of marrying colleagues and instead going in for a non-media person as her life partner. Reacting to the "news", a rather amused Rupali said, "Maybe my mother wants to get rid of me. But seriously, I haven't found one (a marriage partner). No one is even hinting his interest in me." There's still hope for some prospective grooms out there. So will this daily dose of entertainment prove to be an overdose of controversies? What's up with Tasneem? Tasneem Sheikh, the notorious Mohini of Kyunki... is elated these days. Not only because she is performing an item number in Kkavyanjali with Ali Hassan but also because she got a call from her favourite director Ravi Rai. We quiz her about it and she very politely offered the new staple line in the industry- 'too early to talk about it'. Hmmm, so do we expect to see Tasneem in Ravi Rai's next project? Ali to be Gen Next in 'Kyunki…' The word has been circulating for a long time that Kyunki... will take a leap of another twenty years. But it will not happen until people are emotionally prepared to let go off Sudha Shivpuri in Ba's garb. But for now, we have a hint that Ali Hassan (Aryan of Kahaani) will be a part of it. "Shhhh..," is all Ali says. Abhijeet Sawant in 'CID' India's first Indian Idol seems to be omnipresent on Sony. He sang a lovely romantic number Thum Ja in Jassi and now it seems he will also be a part of CID. Will he be a part of ACP Pradyuman's brigade? No, not really. We hear this latest heartthrob will actually be on the victim's side and will seek ACP Pradyuman's help. Sweety to launch comedies Comedy seems to be Rakhi Tandon's favourite genre. This girl who played the silly Sweety Mathur in Hum Paanch is gearing up to launch three comic serials. To be produced under the banner of her home production RT entertainment, the serials are expected to launch by the end of this year. When asked more about the serials, this curly haired lass kindly offers, "It is too early to talk about it now". With Hum Paanch making a comeback on Zee, the greatest Shahrukh fan ever on telly seems excited to play the bubbly, naughty girl. RT entertainment has produced serials like Heena, Professor Pyarelal, Cincinnati Bublaboo, Dulhan, Har Mod Par and Hum Hain Dilwale.
