Has Mona Singh's film being scrapped?
Though Mona Singh has won Jhalak Dhiklaja on Sony, it looks like there's still time for her to dance into Bollywood. "I had signed a film but now I have terminated the contract. It has taken a lot of time. The script too is not yet ready," she says and adds, "But I still dream of Bollywood." Will Jassi's dream come true this time around too.
| People are bored with muscles: Akashdeep Saigal |
| Today there is hardly any K-series fan who doesn't know Akashdeep Saigal. He is the perfect prototype of a TV soap villain. And he loves playing those roles. "Negative roles excite me and they are more challenging than playing the role of a chocolate hero," he quips. Meet Akashdeep Saigal who is ready to rock you with his grooves in the new dance show Jhalak Dikhlaja. Dancing to success I work out regularly for an hour at the gym at Grand Hyatt. Other than that I do dance exercises. That's rocking! It's one hour of non-stop dance like aerobics. It helps to strengthen your abs and tighten your body along with the flexibility. I 'm also learning salsa now. Also, I think, I'm lucky to be a part of the mega dance show Jhalak Dikhlaja. This reality show has been a success in different countries and now the producers of Kaun Banega Crorepati have brought it to India. I got to learn different types of dances like cha cha cha, disco, salsa. I was a pathetic dancer but now I'm learning and trying my best to compete with all the other contestants. Gen-X mantra Working out for a fit body can never be a fad. It is a very important part of grooming your life. In our profession we always challenge time. We don't get time to sleep and it is bound to affect our health. But what gives us energy is regular exercise. Having a fit body is very important in our profession. I love myself and my body. There was a time when I used to yearn for a body like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone but now I don't think like that. Now the lean look is in. People are bored with muscles. Gen X loves a trim and well-toned body. Vegetarian delight I am not a proverbial foodie. I eat to survive and anything that satisfies my hunger is okay for me. I do not have a passion for trying out different types of cuisines. Since I am a vegetarian, I prefer simple food like yellow dal and gobi bhaji. My favourite drink is milk. Also I don't follow a three-course meal routine. My food habit is extremely flexible and changes from day-to-day but the contents remain more or less the same like muesli or porridge with milk, juices and dry fruits. I do not eat roti or chawal everyday, may be only once a week! Sweet corner I am a big fan of sweets. It's not that I have sweets everyday but I always have all the prasad at home. We have Ganapati at home and everyone knows that no one can touch the modaks except me! I have never followed a strict diet but now I'm seriously thinking of starting it because I'm having too many modaks these days!(laughs) Kitchen rules My mother was a very good cook but now she is too old to enter the kitchen and my sister in-law has taken over. After her I am the greatest cook. I make quick meals like soups and noodles. I am extremely good at making corn bhaji. I don't follow a rule book in the kitchen neither do I have the time to experiment with different recipe books. I just pick some masalas that I find before me and make my dishes tasty. I always take special care to garnish the dishes. They should look nice too or else I don't feel like eating. From my appearance to my food everything should be visually appealing. No looking back I used to hang out a lot with friends but now-a-days I don't get time. When I find some time I prefer to visit their homes and spend quality time by catching up on each other's life. Earlier, I used to have a lot of junk food like samosas and vada pav but now-a-days I avoid them. But I don't miss those days. Each day is different and I prefer to live in the present and enjoy it! |

| My first Dance Round | |
| On the first performance day of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, I was told that Toby and I were going to perform last. I was a little disheartened, because I was afraid that the judges would lose interest by the time we took centre stage. And to top it all, I was performing a jive on Gori Gori, which happens to be Farah Khan's song. So, considering the circumstances, I was a nervous wreck. Thankfully., the performance went of well, except for one tiny glitch. But during my stint with Jhalak, I learnt that a big mistake calls for an even bigger smile. So, a big grin and a little bit of acting helped cover it up, and got me triple 8 in my first round! As told to Kanika Parab |

Ace filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who got flak for favouring Mahesh Manjrekar on Sony TV's dance show "Jhalak Dikhla Jaa", says he is unperturbed by his fellow-filmmaker's ouster and Shveta Salve's final loss to Mona Singh.
"Why should I take Mahesh's elimination or Shveta's defeat personally? People presumed Mahesh was a favourite because he's a fellow-filmmaker. But it doesn't work that way," Bhansali told IANS.
"Did you see any partiality in the way me and other judges gave marks to Mahesh?" asked Bhansali, who judged the dance show with choreographer-director Farah Khan and actress Shilpa Shetty.
Other well-known personalities who tried their hands at dancing were cricketer Ajay Jadeja, celebrity chef Sanjiv Kapoor, TV actor Akashdeep Sehgal, talk show host Pooja Bedi and actress Rati Agnihotri.
"I'm not great friends with Mahesh in any case. We have mutual respect for our work. I was there to do a job to the best of my abilities. I was not concerned with the profession of the dancers, only their performances.
"And not just me, but Farah and Shilpa also gave more 10-out-of-10s to Mahesh than probably any other contestant. That's because he was absolutely entertaining and never missed a beat," he explained.
But as far as skills go, Bhansali also ranks Mona and Shveta among the best. Mona, who carved a niche for herself as Jassi, walked away with the winning prize.
"Of course, I was sad when Shveta didn't win. I think Shveta has all the qualities of a dancing heroine. The last of the truly great dancing heroines was Madhuri Dixit. But I also love Mona. She's so spontaneous and spunky. I'm very very happy for her."
Bhansali had the time of his life while judging the show.
"I was very sceptical about doing television. A lot of people felt I was too 'intense' to be on the home medium, and that it'd affect my public image. But I didn't care a damn. I don't have a public image. If at all I have one, it should be of someone who laughs, dances and sings a lot. That's how I am in real life.
"I enjoyed 'Jhalak...' immensely. I truly enjoyed the company of my co-judges Farah and Shilpa. I enjoyed Archana Puransingh and Parmeet Sethi's anchoring. Watching the contestants come and go, climb that many steps and then fall... It was quite an experience."
"The only bitter experience on the show was Akashdeep. But we shall not discuss it," said Bhansali.
Farah and Bhansali shared a very special bonding. She insisted on digging into his wallet each time she wanted to reward a contestant.
"We've shared something special from 1992. We've shared some really mad moments. We've struggled and achieved something in our respective fields. And in spite of our huge differences of opinion, we've reached a comfort level where she could dig into my wallet. I wouldn't allow anyone else to do it."
Given a chance, would Bhansali judge a TV contest again?
"No," came the terse reply.
