Ronit ki kasautii
By: Tushar Joshi
March 13, 2007

able support: Ronit Roy with wife Neelam pic/rakesh dave
Apart from the performances and prize distribution, there was something else that caught our attention at a recently held television awarda show.

Ronit Roy's limp became a talking point after the function ended. Everyone was curious to know how the actor had hurt himself.

When asked about it, Ronit says, "I ignored an old injury while practicing martial arts.

During the shoot of the Holi song for Kasautii, I accidentally hurt my leg in the same spot."

Recovering under medical supervision, the actor had to resort to a walking stick to make it to the function.

We heard the actor is planning to make a short trip out of the city with his family. "Yes, I am leaving for a holiday with my family to chill out for a few days."

The challenge in the relationship: - T.J.Sidhu there could be a low esteem which could be a problem. A small tension or small burdens could become challenging problems.
The challenge in the relationship: - Manoj Bohra detachment or a feeling of hot and cold could bring some frustration in the relationship.
If the relationship turns into marriage: -The relationship will need a lot of commitment and time to run with harmony.

Mannish Goel's penning a reality fiction


Just called on to check on as to what's happening with Mannish Goel post Betiyaan - Paraya Dhan. Currently on a sabbatical, the actor is busy penning a script.

The chilled out actor says, "I've not signed on anything post Betiyaan, since I am waiting for a powerful role to come my way. As for now, I am currently making the most of my free time; introspecting on life, working on my physique, doing up my new house, spending time with Aarav and writing a soap script for my wife Poonam."

Elaborating further on his pet project, Mannish says, "I don't believe in total black or white characters like a Tulsi, Parvati, Prerna or a Komalika. I believe in characters which are realistic and true to life. When my characters cry or laugh there will be a logic to it, something which used to happen during the Hum Log days. I call my soap a realistic fiction."

So, like many other actors, is he planning to turn producer himself? "I am not yet pitching it to anyone but some of my friends have suggested that I produce it myself. So, let's see what happens"

In the past, Mannish has essayed a variety of roles in Kahaani…, Kasauti…., Bhabhi, Paraya Dhan and Nach Baliye. Post which he was offered Kaajal and Durgesh Nandini, which somehow didn't work out due to financial differences.

Clarifying his position, he says, "I started my career with Rs 2000 per day and what I quoted for Durgesh was my market price, which I used to get for Bhabhi. I told the channel you quote your price but somehow they never got back to me. When a producer calls me for a role, I tell them to first tell me the role and if it's a good role, I don't haggle over money."

But does it pay to be so choosy in today's day and age when younger actors hog faster limelight? "I am sure it's worth the wait. I am waiting for that one role which will bring me back in the limelight. I want something mind blowing, something which is quite impossible."

Let's hope its worth the wait.

    In the spot-light

    Sanjit Bedi's aka Munna's tapori clothes in Thodi Si Zameen… are designed by spot boys on the sets!

    Spot on: Sanjit Bedi in Todha Si Zameen...

    Having shed his suave image in Kasauti Zindagii Kay and Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka, Sanjit Bedi aka Munna has donned a tapori look in Thodi Si Zameen Thoda Sa Aasman. And guess who has been designing his clothes in the serial? The spot boys. Sanjit has befriended the technical crew and tries to imitate them for his on-screen tapori look.

    Sanjit shares his cigarettes with the spot boys and in turn gets valuable tips from them. So, how did the spot boys end up designing for him? Says Sanjit, "After I signed the show, the creative team came up with an idea about how Munna should look in the serial. Then suddenly the spot boys and light men came up with really good inputs for my look. Initially, everyone laughed at my tapori look but I thought that it could be interesting. Some of the unit members suggested some really cool accessories to go with my tapori character."

    Elaborating on his look, Sanjit says, "The spot boys are upset about the fact that I do not show off my body. They don't want me to wear a shirt, they only want me to sport a netted vest. While the costume department arranges for my jeans, the bright colored shirts and Kolhapuri chappals are bought from the nearby markets. What I hate to wear is a bandana, but now I think it works for the character as well."

    Interestingly, the actor has designed his own clothes in all the shows he has worked in the past. Says Sanjit, "Usually I design my own clothes and like to carry a personal wardrobe. But this time around I needed help as I have never played a tapori before."

    Ain't no tower high enough!
    By: Tushar Joshi
    March 16, 2007

    tall call: Aamna Shariff
    She may be the prettiest face on television, but talk to Aamna Shariff about heights and the actress will be anything but cute with you!

    Until recently, Aamna suffered from an acute fear of heights but one stage performance has vanquished that phobia.

    Recently, Aamna performed at a television award show and was required to do a free fall from a 15-foot high tower.

    Surprise!

    Recalling the performance, she says, "I love performing on stage, but when I heard that I was to be elevated to 15 feet on a platform, I wasn't too excited.

    In fact, everyone who knew I had vertigo would say that I wouldn't be able to do the jump during rehearsals."

    However, on the night of the performance, Aamna surprised not only others but herself as well. "I was standing on top of the platform and waving to the crowd.

    After that, I had to turn and fall with my back to the ground. Of course, there were people below who would catch me, but it was quite scary looking down from where I was standing."

    Without wasting too much time, Aamna decided to go ahead with the free fall. "I closed my eyes and went ahead with the fall. It happened within seconds and I didn't even realise that the jump was over," she says, relieved.

    Idle gossip

    After this daredevil act, Aamna says she's now ready to climb any tower. "I think this stunt has finally rid me of vertigo. I feel I won't be that stressed the next time I go on top of a tall building."

    On the work front, the actress denies she's going to be a part of a new Sony project with Cezanne Khan. "I have never confirmed this news.

    There are loads of projects that come to me, but that doesn't mean I have signed all of them."

    These days she's busy travelling around the country doing shows. However, one place she's really looking forward to visiting, is London. "My aunt and a few other relatives stay there and I haven't seen them in a really long time.

    I am planning to make a short trip to London this month, but haven't figured out when."

    Sikkander, Gitanjali: No time for play
    By: Shaheen Parkar
    March 19, 2007

    The Kasautii couple has parted ways thanks to busy professional schedules

    Gitanjali Tikekar and Sikkander Kharbanda
    The latest buzz from the sets of Kasautii Zindagii Kay is that Sikkander Kharbanda who plays Indraneil and Gitanjali Tikekar who is seen as Apo*na, are no longer an item.

    Of late, the couple has been spending a lot of time apart.

    Gitanjali has gone missing from Kasautii as she now features in Karam Apna Apna.

    Moreover, Sikkander, who is still part of Kasautii, has taken on numerous Bhojpuri films leaving him time for little else.

    As reported 'Indraneil, Apo*na are an item' (HiTLIST, January 31), the two actors were inseparable on the Kasautii sets, leading to speculation in the past few months that there was more to their relationship than just being co-stars.

    No time

    When asked about the state of affairs, Sikkander says, "As we are no longer working together, we have no time to spend with each other."

    He admits that when Gitanjali was in Kasautii, they spent all their time in each other's company.

    "When not facing the camera, we would always be talking to each other; we would be together in the make-up van and have our meals together," he says.

    The actor maintains that Gitanjali is a dear friend. "She is very busy with Karam Apna Apna so there's no time to catch up. And I have my Bhojpuri film commitments."

    Onlookers from the Kasautii unit maintain that Sikkander, because of his friendly nature, is quite a ladies' man.

    "There were definitely attracted to each other and remained inseparable. But it turned out to be a very short-lived affair and now both barely even meet."

    Phoney talk

    Though both were part of the Kasautii unit for a long time, they developed a close bond only recently. So has this couple drifted apart due to the changed working scenario?

    Sikkander admits, "I no longer meet Gitanjali, but I do talk to her on the phone.

    Everyone assumed that there was more to our relationship but there was nothing more to it."

    It is learnt that besides her acting commitments, Gitanjali now is busy with her designer label, Luxe, which she operates from a unit in her hometown, Pune.

    "This is old stuff and I have been designing for a while now," she says.
    When asked about Sikkander, Gitanjali says, "I am not answerable about my personal life."
