Telly show 'Devon Ke Dev Mahadev' has introduced many cameos, one of the most memorable being that of Mohini. The character was played by Ojaswi Oberoi during the Bhasmasur track. So, when a developing track required Mohini again, producer Nikhil Sinha contacted Ojaswi, only to be left surprised. He was told that Ojaswi had got married and shifted to Kolkata for good.

Nikhil was left with no choice but to look for her replacement and thus, finalised Parakh Madan. Says Parakh, "Mohini is the female avatar of Lord Vishnu. I was always keen on doing a mythological show. Also, my role has a dance sequence. Being a trained classical dancer, it's a good opportunity to showcase my talent." So, is she aware that the role was originally played by Ojaswi? "I am not aware of that," she says.

Life OK's long running mythological show 'Devon Ke Dev... Mahadev' is ruling millions of heart since two years now and the show is leaving no stone unturned to keep the audiences glued with its engaging narration.

After roping in talented actor Rahul Dev, the makers ( Nikhil Sinha) have now planned to introduce a new character with a new track. Accordingly, Television actress Usha Bacchani has been roped in to play Mahishi in Mahadev.

"Usha Bacchani will portray Mahishi, Mahishasur's sister. As Mahishasur was killed by Parvati, Mahishi has now returned to take revenge from Parvati. With her utter devotion, she pleases Lord Brahma and in return she asks to bless her with a boon by which nobody, except the son created out of the union of Vishnu (Hari) and Shiva (Haran) would be able to kill her."

TOI exclusively reported about Sati's track to be re-introduced in Devon Ke Mahadev where Mouni Roy, who played Sati earlier, will return to the show.

A source further informed that not only Mouni Roy but the makers have contacted two major characters from the previous Sati track. They want King Daksh and Queen Prasuti back on the show along with Sati. For the same, they are in talks with veteran actor Surendra Pal and the beautiful Shalini Kapoor.

However, things are still at a nascent stage as both Shalini and Surendra are busy with their prior commitments. Shalini Kapoor is currently seen on Zee TV's Qubool Hai while Surendra Pal too is busy with his films and TV projects.

On the other hand, we also hear that both (Surendra Pal and Shalini Kapoor) are very much interested to be back in Mahadev and if things fall in place they both will be on board.

"It is a three months cameo for Mahadev." - Mouni Roy

Pretty Mouni Roy who was seen as Sati in Devon Ke Dev. Mahadev on Life OK is all set to return on TV. She will be seen in a cameo role in the ongoing mythological show...

Tuesday, January 21, 2014 | 1:24:16 PM IST (+05:30 GMT) | Copyright: india-forums.com/TellyBuzz | 0 Comments | 192 Views

The good looking actress Mouni Roy who got a lot of fame with her stint as Sati in Life OK's mythological show Devon Ke Dev. Mahadevmanaged to impress the audience with her acting skills. Though her role in the mythological show was for a shorter duration, the pretty lady latter won the audiences' hearts with her stint in Junoon - Aisi Nafrat, toh Kaisa Ishq by playing the character of Meera.

We were quite curious to know about Mouni's character in the show and hence got in touch with her who speaks about her comeback, the reason of why is she furious about the link-up rumors between her and Mohit Raina and much more in conversation with TellyBuzz...

Here is Mouni sharing the details...

As seen in the show as the story of the show Devon Ke Dev. Mahadev has progressed with leaps and bounds, Mouni's character will be introduced in the upcoming track of Shiv Puran. Talking about the same Mouni says, "I am not returning to the show but it is a three months cameo for Mahadev. I'm not allowed to talk about it much but if you have read the Shiv Puran, you'll know what my role will be. Yes, in the show they will now show the track of Shiv Puran."

The actress who will be working the same cast and the production house is quite delighted to work with a respectable producer Nikhil Sinha again and says that she is looking forward to meet the older cast of the show too, "We are like a family and it always feels good to work with Nikhil sir and the team. I'm looking forward to meet all my sisters and parents who were there with me in Mahadev."

Mouni clearly denies about the link-up and marriage rumors circulating in the media about Mohit and her. She likes to keep her personal life to herself and does not like it to speak about the same in public, "I don't want to comment on that as too much has been said in the past which was all rubbish. I've lost my father 6 months back and then people were linking me with Mohit. They even said that we are getting married in February but how is that possible. Now media will come to know that there is nothing like that. I feel media is trying to make my life like a reality show which is not," states Mouni.

When asked Mouni about her career plans she says, "I'm not an ambitious person but yes dance has kept me very busy. After my show Junoon ended, three months back, I've done a lot of stage show and Mohiniyattam; also I was part of Nach Baliye this season. I really want to be part of Jhalak this season and let's hope that I get a chance to participate in the show this year," concludes the actress.

Well, we wish Mouni good luck!

Is Mohit Raina set for Bollywood?

Mohit Raina

It's truly raining television stars in Bollywood this year. The latest news doing the rounds is, prime time TV's hottest star Mohit Raina who's currently essaying the role of Mahadev in 'Devon Ka Dev Mahadev' has reportedly been offered a big budget film.

The man who's forever hitting headlines thanks to either his fitness regimen, his rumoured affair with actress Mouni Roy or his tantrums (on the sets and towards the media)" is seriously considering making the big move. Although, there's no confirmation on whether Mohit has accepted the offer because he remained unavailable for comments at the time of going to press, but there is a possibility that the Kashmiri heartthrob might just take up the offer and quit the show. It's early days yet, so guess one will have to wait and watch his next move.

Shah Rukh Khan turns guru for Mohit Raina!

Bollywood's 'King of Romance' Shah Rukh Khan recently shared some tips with small screen actor Mohit Raina who is seen in a serious role in the TV show 'Devon Ke Dev. Mahadev'.

Thursday, January 23, 2014 | 5:46:15 PM IST (+05:30 GMT) | Copyright: IANS | 0 Comments | 120 Views

Bollywood's 'King of Romance' Shah Rukh Khan recently shared some tips with small screen actor Mohit Raina who is seen in a serious role in the TV show 'Devon Ke Dev. Mahadev'.

Shah Rukh was hosting the 20th Annual Life OKScreen Awards when he called Mohit on stage and the latter asked him to teach him a few nuances of attracting a variety of roles.

That's when SRK made him learn how to spread out his arms for a lady and how to dance a bit. But all in vain!

A source says that the superstar also took some time out during the event's rehearsals to guide Mohit who has won praise galore for his act as Mahadev.

"Shah Rukh was extremely helpful and co-operative and was lending a helping hand to Mohit during rehearsals. He got down to the minutest details like the stance on stage, dialogue delivery and patiently helped out Mohit.

"Mohit, who is a huge SRK fan, was more than happy to get some tips from his favorite actor," said the source.

The awards show will be aired on Life OK on Saturday.

Mohit Raina to follow Shahrukh Khan

Mohit Raina

Mohit Raina and Shahrukh Khan are superstars in their own right. Mohit shared screen space with SRK for a recently held awards function and it seems like the actor is mesmerized by SRK's charisma.

On being quizzed about Mohit's rendezvous with SRK, he quipped, "It's an enriching experience to watch him work; he is the most perfect performer that I have witnessed. Shahrukh Khan being the superstar had left no stone unturned in preparing to host his performance."

READ: Mohit Raina clears his marriage rumours

We also hear that Mohit was really awestruck with SRK's energetic preparation and dedication towards his hosting skill.

When asked if Mohit would like to try hosting in the future he affirmed saying, "Of course. It's very interesting and challenging to host a live event. Since there are no re-takes, it takes a lot of time to rehearse for hosting and as I don't have that kind of time right now due to Mahadev's hectic schedule, I would definitely venture into hosting once I have some time at my disposal."

Hope to see Mohit hosting an event soon.

I Love Everything About Mohit Raina: Mouni Roy

Posted by Tellyexpress. com on February 2, 2014 in Interview

1 Vote

Mouni Roy, who will be returning in Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev as Sati, was in the city for an event. In the show, she will be romancing Mahadev, her rumoured boyfriend Mohit Raina, in a fullfledged love track. Excerpts:

Considering you are a Bengali, do you love coming back to Kolkata?
I am not born and brought up in Kolkata, but in Cooch Behar. I did my schooling there. After that, I went to Delhi for further studies. Now, it is Mumbai where I live. It's been quite a journey. I have learnt so much in every phase of my life. Although I have travelled so much, but still, I am a true Bengali at heart. I am a big foodie and prefer Bengali cuisine. I love classical dance. Everything about me is Bengali.

So how does it feel to be the star of your town now?
Cooch Behar is a very small town. My father passed away six months ago, but my mother and brother still live there. The younger lot loves me there. Otherwise, people don't really care much about me being an actress. They treat me just the way they used to before.

So would you prefer a Bengali wedding?
Yes, it will be a traditional Bengali wedding. And whenever it happens, it will happen in Cooch Behar.

You are returning on Mahadev in a full-fledged love track with Mohit Raina. What can we expect this time?
It'll be a beautiful, magical fairytale story. Expect good performances and a lot more.

What do you think is so special about your chemistry with Mohit Raina?
People liked us during my earlier stint on the show. That's why they wanted to see us again. What people don't realize is that it is the script which plays the most important factor in making or breaking a chemistry. Now that the script requires me, I am back. There is a part in Shivpuran that speaks about the kaalchkravyuh. It is a small chapter, but they have modified and extended it a bit so that the episodes can run for about twothree months.

What do you like most about Mohit, as an actor?
Honestly, I love everything about him. It has been almost three years that the show is on air, and look at that man's dedication! I get to hear that he takes every single scene as seriously as he used to when the show had just begun. My favourite avatar of his was when he played Veerbhadra. It must have taken immense power to play that role.

You are often perceived as arrogant. Does it bother you?
Not at all, because I am not. People who know me " both at workplace and in my personal life " know that well. Other than that, I really don't care. I believe in staying with people who make me happy. Also, I think media is extremely unfair sometimes. They can turn your life into a reality show.

We heard you weren't accepted by the audience in an urban show like J u n o o n . What do you think was the reason?
They did accept me as Meera. Firstly, an actor in a TV industry is as big as the show he/she is doing. Then, if a show does not run well for some reasons " like if it is not promoted well " it can't be Mouni's fault. I think I have got maximum acclaim for this character from people, who have watched the show. Except for Kyunki... all my roles have been different. Even Sati is not a conventional goddess. She is very contemporary. She has vices and is very human in her approach about love.

Aren't mythological shows tedious?
Not really! The only time consuming part is the travelling bit, as sets of such mythological shows are built at far-off places, which takes about three-four hours to reach. Add to that 12 hours of shooting, and you can guess the rest.

This time you will be seen as a guest joining the contesting couple, Gurmeet and Debina, on Nach Baliye. Would you like to participate in the next season of the show?
I would love to take part in Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. Nach... has approached me in the past, but I couldn't do it because of various reasons (pauses). Let's see.

Do you plan to be in movies?
No, because I am not an ambitious person at all. But if a good script comes my way, I would love to take it up. Otherwise, I am happy doing one show at a time. If I am getting good work, then the medium doesn't matter.
