an article about sony's new show

Not keeping their word

Varma calls the production house's behaviour unethical. "They didn't honour the contract commitment. My fee was decided from Day One. Later, they asked me for a fee cut, which I refused. I didn't want to re-negotiate as I had made things clear earlier."

Cautious approach

This episode has made Anupama a bit wary of TV, "I do a lot of compering for shows and everything's so organised. This incident has made me cautious. I am willing to do TV but not if things turn out to be like this. I had earlier done cameos in Ek Ladki Anjaani Si and Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin (when was she on jjkn😕😕....did i miss something?????)and both had proved to be an enjoyable experience," she says.

"Moreover, initially it was a one-hour daily, which was later converted to half-hour so there were a lot of changes on that account to," she adds.

Rishton Ki Dorr (earlier titled Khush Raho Tum Sada) is based on a Western telenovella. It revolves around a middle-class man, Suhas (Saxena), and his three sisters.

After an accident that claims his parents, Suhas has to shoulder the responsibilites of his sisters, causing conflicts with his wife (Varma).

The show is slated to air in March in the soon-to-be- rejuvenated afternoon transmission of Sony.
