Apparently host Mandira Bedi laughed till she cried in the jokers' episode of the Sony game show Deal Ya No Deal.
In the circus special of the show this Friday, there are clowns going topsy-turvy with lots of fun and frolic as they tickle everyone's funny bone.
Mandy had pot-loads of fun while shooting as the jokers took center stage and relived those days of childhood when going to the circus meant a big treat for young ones.
Riya: The boring connection!
Remember The Bong Connection, starring Riya and Raima Sen together? First Riya signed it. Then she walked out due to date problems. Then she worked her dates around and was back in again last week. And this week's surprise?
She is out again.February 10, 2006hassles being the reason. Says Sen, "And I think I can shoot for The Bong Connection from March 26. If they (Moxie India) cannot adjust the dates for two days, it's their loss." The two sisters together were supposed to be the 'big peg' of this film.
From what we remember Shilpa Shetty and Shamita Shetty's film together (we can't even recall the name!) didn't exactly make it to the Oscars. So frankly Riya darling, we don't think it's anybody's loss. Least of all the audiences'.

Nikhil Chinappa | Rannvijay |
MTV veejays Rannvijay and Nikhil Chinappa will be doing a Full Monty at a special show to launch a body wash at Velocity tonight.
The show will have them strip at this 'Ladies Only' event which could best be termed as a hen party.
Talk about promoting a new product, which creates lather! And this is what Nikhil have to say about being stripped by a bunch of women…. "I've had this long-standing and recurring dream that slowly turns into a nightmare where these gorgeous women whip out several pairs of old rusted pliers and try to pull out my chest hairs —one by one — and I get up screaming.
It's particularly scary since I've spent many years trying to grow them!" A hair-raising tale certainly.
Ameesha Patel in Idol 2
Kaho na pyaar hai," say Indian Idol 2 contestants Amey, Karunya, Panna, Ravi, Sandeep and Anuj on the Valentine's Day special episode of the Sony show which has Ameesha Patel as the celeb judge.
While Meenal and Antara, the only two girls left in Idol 2, gaze admiringly at the Bollywood actress.
"The Idol fever has reached a fiery stage now and I have been a fan of all the finalists! It upsets me every time a finalist is voted out and I wish for Idol to be an ongoing talent hunt, so that no talent is left unnoticed!" exclaimed Ameesha.
