Twin trouble - An article

Hi friends,

Twin trouble

< content=10/28/2007 name=date>

The conjoined twins of Amber-Dhara were flown to Ahmedabad in their on-screen get-up, leading to much confusion at the airport Posted On Sunday, October 28, 2007

Ranjib Mazumder Sony TV is going all out to protect the identity of their twin wonder - Amber and Dhara, the conjoined twins and protagonists of Amber-Dhara, Kashmeera Irani and Sulagna Panigrahi. Recently, the team of Amber-Dhara including the two girls were in Ahmedabad on a promotional trip. The team faced an unusual problem at the airport. Since the producers did not want the on-screen conjoined sisters to reveal their identity in front of the public, they were in their on-screen costume, joined at the hips. But the airport authorities did not allow them to board the flight. They were stopped at the security check. Kashmeera Irani and Sulagna Panigrahi Says a source in the production house, "We had strict instructions not to reveal the identities of the girls in front of the public. We protected their identity just as we did Mona Singh's in Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin. Since they were instructed to pose as conjoined twins, their air-tickets were in different names. The authorities did not allow them to enter as they thought we were fooling them. After pleading much with the authorities we had to disclose our purpose of maintaining secrecy. Thankfully they allowed us. It was such a relief." The girls were allotted a middle-seat in the flight. Our source adds, "Although we had back-up plans, we did not want to spill the beans. Finally in the flight too, they sat together and everyone was quite amused at their sight." When contacted, Vikas Seth, one of the producer of the show confirmed the incident. He says, "Actually, we did not want the public to believe that they are separate in real life. Though, they were stopped by the airport authorities, they let us in when we told them the real reason." Weren't they going over-board? "It was a conscious decision so that people believed that the girls are living their on-screen character. In the world of television, characters work more than the stars. For the airport we had back-up plans, but luckily, we were through without any hassle," he adds.

kool i wud really like to see thm 2gether even though i knw thy r not conjoined

i think this article is now posted for the 3rd time Zee 😉

sony really goes overboard with their secrecy. i really dont understand what the hassles r for? will the viewers stop watching AD if they know the real id of the Amber Dhara. its really hilarious now that we already know their real names and that they r not even related.
I was also amused with all these stupid tactics of sony at the time of jassi. if we knew that jassi's actual name is Mona Singh then wud we hv stopped watching jassi???

what with the other never ending serials like kyunki saas...., kggk etc. we all know that tulsi is smriti and now gautami, parvati is sakshi........has that stopped the flow of the serials?
method of sony's thinking is beyond my ken.

I agree with u 😊

I just think the whole things Pathetic

I understand why they hid Mona Singh's identity and why she had to go out as her character.... So no one would know how she would look like after her Makeover and how she looks like in real life - as a beautiful person 😊

But we know what are the real names of AD and that they are not related in any way .... Where they come from.... That they are 2 completely different individuals etc so whats the point in all this??

Its a waste of time 😆

Btw, Thanks 4 the article 😉

too much.. its really funny
