Chak De Phatte: Zee TV Stars bring in Lohri
In Punjab, the breadbasket of India, wheat is the main winter crop, which is sown in October and harvested in March or April. In January, the fields come up with the promise of a golden harvest, and farmers celebrate Lohri during this rest period before the cutting and gathering of crops. As the celebrations ring out in the whole of Punjab; Zee TV stars recall their fondest memories of this festival in the years gone by.
Gaurav Khanna:

Gud ki mithaii, makke di roti, sarson da saag and the compulsion within to enjoy the last few days of winter would make Lohri special every year. Kite flying is huge in Lucknow and there is no bigger thrill that see the opponent's kite being cut by yours. I grew up in Kanpur where both Makar Sankranti and Lohri are celebrated with equal enthusiasm.

Vandana Joshi:

I have always been a complete tomboy right from childhood so on every Makar Sankranti, I used to join my brother and cousins on the terrace to fly kites! However being a girl, they would never permit to do anything more then hold the manza so I remember once I got so angry with them that I pulled the string so hard that I ended up cutting my fingers! I was secretly pleased after all that as my brother got a huge scolding from my Mum!!

Nandini to be thrown out of the house in Dil Se Diya Vachan



Nandini to be thrown out of the house in Dil Se Diya Vachan

A heartbroken Prem and his family members decide to send Nandini out of the house in Zee TV's Dil Se Diya Vachan..


Prem (Gaurav Khanna) and Nandini (Vandana Joshi) of Zee TV's Dil Se Diya Vachan are in for some rosy moments as they will finally consummate their marriage. However, there is a twist waiting for the viewers here..

Our source states, "Nandini will record all about her rape in a tape and will ask Prem to listen to it. However, Prem listens to the first part of the tape where she is speaking her mind out that she loves him very much. But Prem does not hear to the full tape and rushes to spend a night with Nandini in the fort. Nandini assumes that Prem has heard about her bitter past and has accepted her even after knowing the whole truth. With this happiness, she gets closer to her husband and they consummate marriage".

"However, the entire family will get to hear about Nandini's past when they hear the tape. And by the time the couple reach home, chaos has already broken out there. Prem is shattered when he gets to know the truth. He feels that Nandini has ditched him by not telling him everything. Nandini on the other hand remains clueless when she sees Prem reacting like this. Finally the entire family decides to throw Nandini out of their house. Prem who himself is heartbroken allows Nandini to get out of his life", adds our source.

We hear that Krushna (Ajay Chaudhary) will make full use of the situation and further torture Nandini by asking her to get back into his life. Nandini though will be forced to go back to her sister's place..

We tried contacting Vandana Joshi and Gaurav Khanna but they weren't available.

Neena Gupta says, "Though I know about the track, I can't divulge anything about the further developments."

Does this mean the time has come when Kalyani will stand up for her daughter-in-law? Only time will tell..

Prem stands by Nandini in Dil Se Diya Vachan..

Prem stands by Nandini and leaves the house to be with his wife in Zee TV's Dil Se Diya Vachan...
Today Zee TV's Dil Se Diya Vachan will see its Maha episode where Nandini (Vandana Joshi) will be thrown out of the house as her truth will be revealed to Prem. TellyBuzz had earlier reported about the Maha Episode in which Prem (Gaurav Khanna) and his family will get to know about Nandini's past. And the audience has already seen that Nandini (Vandana Joshi) had recorded her past story in a tape and had given it to Prem.

While viewers were wondering whether this is the apt time for Dr. Kalyani (Neena Gupta) to stand up for her daughter-in-law, the coming episodes will see a pleasant surprise!!

A source states, "After Nandini is thrown out of the house she reaches her sister's place. In the meantime, Prem realizes the love he has for Nandini and forgives her. He goes after Nandini and somehow brings her back home, but the couple is shocked to see the entire family standing against them. The family will oppose and will come to a decision that Prem can stay with them but Nandini has to get out of the house as she has no right to stay in the house."

But being a true loving husband, Prem will support Nandini and will stand by her side. "Therefore, Prem decides to support his wife and leaves the house along with her", adds our source.

We contacted Gaurav Khanna and he says, "We are not allowed to say anything about the track, so I can't reveal anything about our maha episode."

Well, the maha episode is going to be interesting as its not Kalyani (Neena Gupta), but Prem who will support his loving wife!

Zee TV leads pay tribute by singing National Anthem..


Zee TV leads pay tribute by singing National Anthem..

The lead protagonists of all the fictions shows on Zee TV showed their patriotic fervor by joining together for the National Anthem shoot recently



TellyBuzz already reported about Zee TV's Special Episode titled 'Salute at 8' which will portray the patriotic fervor of Rani Lakshmi Bai (Kratika Sangar). The protagonists of all the fiction shows on Zee TV, recently got together to pay tribute to the warrior, Jhansi Ki Rani.

The actors donned white to sing the Indian National Anthem which will be aired in the episode at 8 PM on January 26th.

Our source states, "The shoot for the same was held few days back. And it was graced by all the leading artistes of shows on Zee TV, except for the channel's very Popular Jodi Manav (Sushant Singh Rajput) and Archana (Ankita Lokhande) and Anukalp (Nishant Malkani) and Mona (Sara Khan ) from Preet Se Bandhi Ye Dor Ram Milaayi Jodi".

"The leads from Yahan Main Ghar Ghar Kheli – Suhasi Dhami and Karan V Grover, Ratan Rajput and Abhishek Rawat from Agle Janam Mohe Bitiya Hi Kijo, Iqbal Khan, Binny Sharmaand Additi Gupta from Sanjog Se Bani Sangini,Gaurav Khanna and Vandana Joshi from Dil Se Diya Vachan, Aamir Dalvi, Rohit Purohit and Veebha Anand from Sanskaar Laxmi, Himmanshoo A Malhotra and Nivedita Tiwari from Bhagonwali Baante Apni Taqdeer, Sargun Mehta and Garima Ajmani from Apno Ke Liye Geeta Ka Dharmyudh were present to pay their tribute by singing the National Anthem", adds our source.

We hear that while Sara Khan and Nishant Malkani were at a channel organized promotional shoot at Delhi, Sushant and Ankita apparently refused to be part of the event for reasons known only to them.

Rohit Purohit of Sanskaar Laxmi told us, "It was an awesome experience to shoot for the National Anthem. I wore white Kurta Pyajama and when I was standing with all the other artistes to sing the Anthem, I remembered my school days. It was a nostalgic moment for me, and I talked to my friends after the shoot to tell them about my experience".

Nishant Malkani who was not present at the event said, "We were already in Delhi for a promotional event of our show, Ram Milaayi Jodi. I got to know that such a shoot was going to happen, but we could not get back as we were engaged in Delhi".

The grapevine says that Sushant and Ankita were not present at the Anthem shoot as this was completely a free-of-cost shoot and no actor was being paid for it.

When we contacted Ankita Lokhande to ask her about their unavailability for the shoot, she gave us two different reasons while talking to us. "We were not informed by the production house", she quoted initially. Then when probed further, she said, "It was Sushant's birthday and we were out of town to celebrate the occasion. We got a call from the production house calling us for the shoot, but we could not go back".

When asked about the place in which she celebrated Sushant's birthday, Ankita had this to say, "I don't think I have to reply to your question".

We are sure that this would have been a one-off experience for the artistes who saw it as an honour of singing the National anthem on National Television..

A Day with No TV!!! - Are you game for it?

As per the initiative of Hindustan Times, today is considered to be 'No TV Day'.. But are we willing to stay away from the idiot box for a day? Read on..




People have been spectators of No TV Day banners and posters all over the city. An initiative taken by Hindustan Times, No TV day, Switch on Mumbai Switch off TV on Jaunary 29, encourages people to switch off the idiot boxes for 24 hours and make the day constructive and eventful with their own creative activities.

But will it really be followed? An ambiguous question for which the answer could possibly be No!!!

Television has become so significant a part of life that today we can add it on to the list of 'Roti Kapda aur Makaan' - An entertainment source that can barely be given a backseat in the house. Television which was just a token of luxury earlier is now a need.

If we compare the shows of yesterday and today, there are Brobdingnagian differences to be pointed out. A medium where the shows were usually entertainment packages that provided a reliever, is today a provider of high points and suspense that could barely be missed by the viewers.

But at the same time, the concept of No TV day has been interesting because, thinking about a day without TV and hanging around with friends makes us curious to know on how we will spend it. But in a city like Mumbai where we have frequent power offs for an entire day, I think people have various other alternatives to spend the day.

While we kept aside the normal people, we thought to contact certain industry biggies on their take on No TV Day.

Producer Rajan Shahi who has shows Ye Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai and Chand Chupa Badal Mein running on Star Plus says "First of all I do not think that any medium should comment on how a day should be spent without another medium because it is a personal choice. I do not understand why the positive aspects of a day have to be highlighted at the cost of another medium. Spending a day with the needy and the helpless, go, visit and talk to the under privileged etc are positive conducts that should be highlighted. Television today is not just rooted to entertainment, but a source of education, information and everything. What I would say is that TV has made me a better human being."

Yash Patnaik, Producer of Rang Badalti Odhani on Star One, questions about the concept and says "What are you going to achieve by having a No TV Day? You don't make people spend time with family and friends by making a No TV Day and in fact TV brings families and friends together. It's just another gimmick and I hope the organizations who are calling this No TV Day spend the money and efforts in calling No Bribe Day, No Abuse Day, No Lie Day, No Enemy Day rather."

Sanaya Irani, who was lastly seen in Star One's Miley Jab Hum Tum has a different point of view though. "I think it is a fabulous initiative by Hindustan Times and I feel there should be a No TV Day every week as the box is really addictive. But I can assure that I can stay without watching TV for one day and would definitely like to spend a day out with my family and relatives as I have so many of them. I would also love to spend time with my friends too. I know many people will not follow it but I feel they should."

Gaurav Khanna, who is presently seen in Zee TV's Dil Se Diya Vachan too had a supporting view and said "I think it is a good initiative as it encourages people to be with family and friends. But how far the initiative will be successful, cannot be predicted because 'Old Habits Die Hard' and now since the shows have gone till Saturdays, people are completely glued onto the screens."

Siddharth Tewary, Producer of Zee TV's Agle Janam Mohe Bitiya Hi Kijo and Phulwa, on COLORS has an interesting comment to give. "The concept is great and it is just a day but at the same time loyalty is difficult to achieve and even more difficult to break. Loyal viewers, even if they miss an episode can always catch the repeats anyhow!!!"

Vivian Dsena who is seen in Star One's Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani also wonders how far the initiative will succeed, "Well, the day will be indeed a break for people and I think Hindustan Times must have definitely taken up the initiative after thorough planning, but I have no clue how far it will be a success."

Given a chance, how can the day be spent? If I was given an option to forget TV for a day, I would prepare myself with my favourite comics, novels and recipe books so that I could spend the day very well with family and myself.

Rajan Shahi though believes in balancing his personal time, profession and time spent on TV, "Television is my bread and butter and apart from the reason that I belong to the industry, television is indeed a source of education and also relaxation and I have no reason to negate the medium. I know what my priorities are and I do spend quality time with my family which makes me wonder why I should neglect TV for a day."

Gaurav Khanna shares "There was a time when I was really glued to the screen, but today I do not even get time to even give a glance to it. If given a chance, I would definitely like to spend the day with family and friends and also visit places in Mumbai where I have not been yet."

Well, the D-day is actually today!! So what are your plans, readers? Will you believe in the day, and say 'Bye Bye' to your favorite television serials for a day? Or are you already ready to watch today's share of serious twists and turns in your favorite serials?

Whatever it is, it is again the 'Junta' who has the right to decide!!
