Bringing in KARAN TACKER
B ' karan welcome to the show
Kt- whats up UK
kt- am superb anushka. Thank u so much bobby
b- now karan u r in London. No one knows why u r in London. We don't know if u r on a secret trip, if u r doing work or u r wit a lady ?
kt- well bobby just btw u and me and this is strictly confidential right? I actually came down here to buy the buckingam palace
aa- ohhh and did u?
kt- well actually the queen called me for tea ad I didn't like the tea.
Mujhe black tea pila di, mujhe desi chai achi lagti hai
b- the England family fit I like the Indian soap .family. so u wil fit in
kt- u know it's a little small, but I wil adjust
''''''''''''''''''..
Kt- well anushka u know I like shoes. Am impressed
aa- oh really u r impressed
kt- ya. Actually I am wit a bunch of guys (friends) and these guys are not the shopper kinds and I have been dragging them to every store looking for a nice pair of boots
aa- can I just tel u something. Any girl will love to come shopping wit u.
kt- really? U know I should put it out. I am at bbc centre now ad would love it if someone from here wil take me out
b- they might turn out and actually want to smell ur jootiyan. Can u deal wit that
kt- I would actually love that. There is nothing to deal with that. I love the crowd
----------------------------------
aa- when u came into the industry how did it all start for u?
kt- well honestly speaking and this is as honest as I have ever been. I needed the money. I thought what was the quickest way to make mony and I am business student right , so I thought why not try actig. I have heard those guys make a lot of money there. That's how I popped in.
aa- then love ne mila di jodi happened. Right?
Kt- no actually before that rab ne bana di jodi happened. Am not embarrassed at all because srk copied me later after the step
---------------------------------
aa- how do u describe ur journey till ehmmbh
kt- its been fantastic and honestly I keep saying there are a few people to get to live their dreams and I am glad am still dreaming about it
---------------------------
b- I want to ask u about hosting the iifa. Did u actually feel like being in the middle of the hurricane of bollywoodness?
Kt- ah definitely I was in the middle of it, you know , I was in the centre of it
b- I love that man. You are also the centre of the soap ndustry. So do they treat u differently. Is it different?
Kt- well I will tel u honestly I don't consider myself a star. Well deep down I feel am an artist. Whether u put me in a soap, a film on a stage or in front of 10 people, I will happily do it. I am too young in the industry, I don't feel the star bit yet
--------------------------------
You and virat are amazing to watch as brothers onscreen. Are u really like that offscreen too. Do u share such a brotherly relationship?
Kt- ahhh, I would say its professional
Honestly speaking he is great guy and we, infact all of us get along really well in a professional level and that's what reflects on screen
aa- mani is a bubbly character. Is she close to that I real life?
Kt- ya surprisingly all 4 of us are very close to how we r in real life. None of us really act.
---------------------------------------------------------
b- karan speak on behalf of virenji. I want to ask on behalf of all husbands 'Do husbands like that exist in real life?'
kt- am 26 man, too young to comment on that
but there is one thong that I always say, you can be a good pati the wayi am onscreen oly and only , strictly if after the 12 hour sched you know the wife is going to a separate home and u r going to a separate home
b- if I could organize that to my real life wife, I will do it tmrw
kt- oh she wil kill u after this show
b- u know my wife, she definitely would
kt- bobby there wil be a lot of friction
kt- oye hoye karanji
aa-for now meeti meethi batein ho rahi hai with the lvely shoe obsessed karan tacker
kt- I sound like a woma when u say shoe obsessed
aa- no , men can have their obsession
kt- ya, that's my excuse
aa-which character do u relate to the most of all your roles
kt- I have grown up along with my shows. Now I relate to viren. I have my rough edges. I cant be honest about everything though
b- talk to me about your hair
kt- I have never ot of that actually
aa- jhoot jhoot , u were obsessed wit ur hair back in school
kt- were r u hearing all thif from
aa- I have done my research
kt- thats true. I don't know about the black, but I do have some greys. I like them, they r my only sign of maturity
(wants to experiment beckam style before coming back)
----------------------------------------------------------------

Fan1- would u like to act in bollywood
Kt- why of course if the character is meeti enough
Fan2- how do u handle romanctic scenes wit jeevika. Don't u actually get lost I her eyes?
Kt- there is nothing to handle. The girl, she is beautiful. So its easy to romance her.you know at times am not even following the lines, am just going. Am just goig ad going and they literally call cut and say' dude we have crossed the script'
Fan3- will u act as bond
Kt- that would be a privilege
b- there were rumors and reports of u actually dating krystle. Now to put it on the line, was there any truth at all to that. Have u even kissed her?

I say this too often but honestly that girl light up my day yar when I come to work. I love having her around.
She is a good friend. You don't want to loose that kind of stuff
Aa- she has got a lovely smile
Kt- but believe me , its hard to keep my hands off that girl. She is pretty
talking abt sasha
aa- r u close to ur sister
kt-horribly close to her. Shei s like a second mother.
I really wish sasha was here wit me
B ques on the future plot
Kt-the funny thing is I have not been to work last 15 days. They don't even have me o the shw. They have sent me to London in the show. They have been using a duplicate and that's not my voice and that's disappointing.
But I know whats going to happen next. am in London so I can do this right.
I wil give out one. I will be nice
There is going to be a huge rift btw me and my wife.
Aa and b totally shocked ( so was I)-nahi nahi. R u serious
Kt- its one of those moments when I go ' nahin nahi nahin'
aa- I am sorry but I didn't see this coming at ll
kt- so I dot know if I should say u guys should watch out for it. That not a good thing. Am not really happy you know. I like shooting with krystle
aa- viren ji to phir itne ache be nahi nikle
kt- u could say that. Shayad viren ke kuch asli rang dekne ko milenge (bring it on kt)
aa- I am having my oh my god moments right now.
Kt- oh that OMG type of moments
Fan q- if u want to change ur character in ehmmbh whom will u want to play the role of and why?
Kt- personally I love my character. I picked up the show because of the character. But if given the chance, I would like to play the character of swamini bua (good choice)
She plays the character wit a lot of air u know
Even after the cuts she is seema, but she has that swamini aura. I would love to play something like that.
Kt would love to play the role of ranbir in rockstar.
Rapid fire ( wil add later)
b- you r the best actor we have had on the show
kt- u r just saying that
b- no . we opened this up 2 weeks ago. U r the only actor we hv had on the show
aa- when r u going back to India
kt- tmrw. But belive me am already having the withdrawals
I am tired of sayig this. Am in live in London
I want to ask u all to bombard sp and ask them to bring me back on the 25 th , there is some star parivaar event. Oh am not supposed to be advertising it
It was way much more fun to hear it. Don't miss it guys.
