Nimmo (Sanjeeda) is now Ayesha, Prachi's step-sister

After Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka went off the air, Nimmo (Sanjeeda) did not sit idle at home. Instead, she quickly stepped into another Balaji show, Kayamat that has replaced Kahiin To Hoga in the 11 PM slot on STAR Plus.

Sanjeeda will be playing Inder Shah's (Mohnish Behl) daughter, the one nobody knew about till now. It is expected that on Monday the mystery about Inder's past that includes his daughter will be known to everyone. Sanjeeda has already made an appearance on screen. She is being shown as a girl living in a chawl with her mom.

Says Sanjeeda, "By next week everyone will come to know that I'm the step sister of Prachi (Panchi Bohra). I haven't shot for those episodes yet. I will shoot within two days. Nowadays I'm shooting for only one scene or maximum for two scenes, but after this twist the focus of the story will completely shift on me. You have to wait and watch how she will take the story ahead with Inder as her father and Prachi her step sister."

For the serial Sanjeeda has got a different look from the one she had in Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka. Here she has curly hair. Says Sanjeeda, "I haven't done any special haircut for this show. I have attached an extension to my original hair. It's convenient as it takes only fifteen minutes to get it done. In my earlier show (Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka) I had to tie a very tight pony tail because of which I would get a headache while shooting."

This particular role seems to be more exciting for Sanjeeda than her previous one. For one, her make-up is being flown down specially from Hyderabad, along with the make-up man "My make-up is specially coming from Hyderabad. The make-up is amazing. Raju, the famous makeup man of the South film industry is doing my makeup. Nim Sood my designer is using bright colours for me for this particular role as my character is bold in the show. All these bright colours like red, dark blue, green are looking very good on screen. I'm basically using plain Punjabi suits with halter neck line. My make up man is specially working on my eyes as they have to be expressive."

Is Ekta afraid of Paresh Rawal?

Kapoor has planned a two-day special of Kyunki, Kahaani and Kayamath to upset the actor's co-production Teen Bahuraniyan, airing on Zee tonight

Secret-Bearer: Smriti Iraani on the sets of Teen Kahaaniyaan pic/ PRADEEP DHIVAR
Staring today, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii and Kayamath will be blended into one mega soap, called Teen Kahaaniyaan, Teen Raaz, Do Anokhe Episodes, as a special two-part series on Star Plus.

Part one will be aired on Monday from 10 pm to 11.30 pm, while part two will air on Tuesday.

This comes in the light of Star's biggest rival Zee launching a brand new show called Teen Bahuraniyaan, co-produced by veteran actor Paresh Rawal.

Balaji czarina Ekta Kapoor apparently wants to ensure that the new show gets little to no attention on its opening day tomorrow, and hence has launched a massive publicity stunt for her Star dramas.

Common thread

Says a source from Balaji, "It's the biggest special show on television and will been seen over two days.

That's 100 minutes of programming, 80 artists, 50 junior artists, four sets, three directors, and five creative directors who will be working on the project."

Apparently, it's also the costliest set ever made. Balaji
is rumoured to have spent Rs 1 crore for four sets (constructed at Sankraman Studios) for this two-episode special.

Adds the source, "The artistes have been shooting non-stop for the last five days. It's a combined episode of Balaji's prime time Star Plus dramas, which will be interlinked."

'Star' wars

Meanwhile, Zee's Teen Bahuraniyaan will debut tonight in the 10.30 pm slot. The new show, co-produced by Paresh Rawal and Hemal Thakkar, will have a fresh cast of actors.

Rajesh Joshi (one of the original writers of Kyunki) has been roped in to script Teen Bahuriyaan, while Sapna Joshi (who has directed many soaps) is directing the serial.

Says Paresh Rawal, "I wanted to make a family drama revolving around the saas- bahu, but with a difference."

Is he afraid that Balaji is coming up with a spectacular special event on the same day? "Not at all. I am not competing with anybody. Besides, I'm sure Ekta isn't scared of anybody, least of all me. I have great respect for her.

The kind of tenacity and talent she has is remarkable. I am looking forward to learning from her. In fact, I want to approach her for building a drama theatre in the future."

Suspense and theatrics!

Janki devi aka Parvati will throw a special party in tonight's episode of Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii. This episode will run into Kyunki and Kayamath's time slot as one mega show.

Says a Balaji source, "The party will have an Arabian Nights theme with heavy, ornate draperies in green and gold silk."

Sixty scenes and 10 songs have been shot for the special. Adds the source, "Tulsi and Parvati will dance to Hoton Pe Aisi Baat from Jewel Thief.

Three big secrets from the past will be revealed in this special episode: In Kahaani, it will finally be revealed who the skeleton in the trunk belongs to, while in Kyunki Krishna Tulsi's rapist will finally be revealed.

Meanwhile, Kayamath will reveal the secret to Monish Behl's dark side, which he has been hiding for 20 years."

Guru gyaan on the sets of Kayamath

The young, vivacious and hyperactive Jay Bhanushali has been getting some nudges from Eijaz Khan. Recently, it was observed that the young gang was tired and hence got very lackadaisical about their scenes due to erratic schedules. That's when Eijaz had to step in and pep in some energy. Since then, Jay aka Neev and Eijaz have bonded like brothers. Jay says, "Eijaz often drags me from the van. Also, I like the fact that he tells me that it's my show and I should treat it with all the responsibility."
We think, its nice to see senior actors teaching positive things to the generation X and not being insecure about competition. And this, in spite of the speculations about Eijaz's role in Kayamath being bumped off. But going by his attitude, we think he'll stay on in Kayamat for some more time at least.

The fire factor

Panchi Bora and Jai Bhanushali in Kayamath
If Zee can burn a set worth Rs 9 lakh for Betiyann, can Ekta Kapoor be far behind? For the one-and-a-half hour long special episode shot recently, Ekta burnt a set worth Rs 10 lakh. The episode, to be aired today, will see the lead pair Panchi Bora aka Praachi and Jai Bhanushali aka Neev in Kayamath caught in a fire. It is one of the vital scenes of the special episode, meant to bring in the much needed punch to Kayamath, which is not doing well, compared to other Balaji serials.

Informs Nivedita Basu, creative head of Balaji, "Two huge sets have been created for the scene. We have been working hard for the mega episode and the fire sequence happens to be a crucial scene, which will give a new twist to the story. We are keeping our fingers crossed about the response."

Varun of Kayamat is Neev's off-screen guru

On screen they may be at loggerheads. But off-screen, Varun (Eijaz Khan) gives guru mantra to Neev (Jai Bhanushali) on the sets of Kayamath.

Eijaz is playing a negative character in the serial. He is also the only one who known the truth about Inder's (Mohnish Behl) past.

Jai Bhanushali (Neev) can't believe his luck at having a senior like Ejaz around, "The young gang was tired because of the hectic schedule and perhaps got a bit lazy. So to boost my morale he just came into my van and told me, "Kayamath is your show and you should treat your show with responsibility as you are the main lead of the show. He is very sweet."

It's nice to see senior actors teaching positive things to the generation next and not caring about competition. And this, in spite of the rumors about Eijaz's role in Kayamath would end in the latter part of the story.

Says Ejaiz, "He is like my younger brother. He is very hardworking but was still tired because of the hectic schedule so I had just given him the power booster and yaa that's it."

Panchi finds college boring


Jay Bhanushali and Panchi Vora in 'Kayamath'



Nevertheless, the leading lady of 'Kayamath' wants to do her MBA abroad

She was previously seen as Ananya in the show 'Kitni Mast Hai Zindagi'. Few endorsements later, Panchi Vora was approached by Balaji for 'Kayamath' (Star Plus) to play the role of Prachi.

Panchi vs Prachi
Panchi says, "Prachi is a simple, shy girl who is the apple of her father's eye. Her world encompasses her family and best friend (played by Jay Bhanushali)." She continues, "I'm confident as I am used to the camera. The entire team is like a family. Jay is very friendly and he is good-looking too." She further adds, "I am not as shy as Prachi. But yes I am family-oriented and have values like her. In fact, any girl can relate to her."

Star vs student
As a child Panchi never dreamt that she would act. Panchi says, "It just happened by chance when I auditioned in Pune for 'Kitni Mast Hai Zindagi'." Interestingly, Panchi is still studying and is presently doing her SYBA from Ferguson College in Pune. Panchi confesses that she is not missing college.

"I find it boring. But I want to do my MBA abroad. I'm also interested in mass media . I hope to become the creative head of Balaji someday," she laughs.

'Soaps require dedication,' says Jay


Jay Bhanushali with Panchhi Vora

The actor says that playing the fun loving Neev in 'Kayamath' is very close to being himself


Balaji beckons
His is a face you may have seen in plenty of advertisements. So when Jay Bhanushali appeared with Saif Ali Khan in a commercial, it got him noticed by Balaji Telefilms.

For a newcomer it was a smooth entry when he landed the lead role in their show 'Kayamath' (Star Plus) after the routine auditions.

Ads vs telly tales
Jay says the transformation from the advertisement world saying, "The experience of shooting for 'Kayamath' has been great so far. It has been different from shooting ads.

When shooting commercials one gets pampered. On the other hand, soaps require hard work, dedication and seriousness."

Neel and me
"Neel, the character that I play in the show, is fun loving and has no tensions in life. The story has a love angle between Prachi (played by Panchhi Vora) and me. Prachi has just one friend and that's me.

On the other hand, I have a lot of girlfriends. Both of us are in search of true love. Neel is somewhat like me because he loves to crack jokes," he says.

Pal Panchhi
"Panchhi has been very comfortable to work with. Our onscreen chemistry is quite good," asserts Jay fondly about his co-star.

He further adds, "Since I am a newcomer, I am taken care of by my seniors. Mohnish Behl has been guiding me on various aspects of acting."

Jay ho!
"I see to it that I relate to my role. It is only then that I can act convincingly," explains Jay. He says he trusts his director and just follows his instructions. "Ektaa (Kapoor) is happy with my performance too," smiles Jay.

Destiny
"My dream was to be a cricketer. I used to play cricket regularly at Shivaji Park. But destiny had other plans," says Jay who is regularly complimented for his smile.

"I can't do a regular nine-to-five job. I knew I would get into the glamour industry," he admits. In the future Jay sees himself in the direction arena.

"I have always believed that this is a big industry, which has something for everyone. It is just a matter of time and luck," he ends.

Kayamath ki raat from next week





With only a few days for 19 February when Balaji's new baby, Kayamath comes to life on air; an informal press meet with the actors was arranged. Here are some insights, for our audiences, on this brand new love saga. Read on.

The first thing that strikes you about Kayamath is the story, which sounds heard-and-seen. Though what needs to be watched would be the treatment meted out to the show, which surely can make an ordinary script an extraordinary feat. The story in brief is the journey of Praachi (Panchi Bora) and Neev (Jay Bhanushali) from being friends to lovers. The cast of the show also includes names like Shabbir Ahluwalia, Neena Kulkarni, Suraj Thapar, Prachi Shah and Mohnish Behl among others.

The protagonist of the show, the cute Assamese beauty Panchi Bora, who was earlier seen in the MTV show Kitni Mast Hai Zindagi throws light on her character in Kayamath, "I play Praachi, a sensitive and reserved girl, who is extremely dependant on her father, Inder (Mohnish Behl). I belong to a middle class family and have my limited aspirations before I start discovering that I am gradually falling for my best friend Neev." Adds Jay Bhanushali, "Our families share a great rapport and I am a happy-go-lucky guy who doesn't understand what love means." Jay, who was spotted in the rediff ad by the production house further says, "It was my smile that worked for me. Ekta Kapoor personally told me that I have a cute smile. Now, I make sure that I flash it everytime I meet her."

Actor Prachi Shah (the current Kesar), who plays Panchi's mom in Kayamath says, "I am very happy doing mature roles in both of my serials. What I really find amusing is the protagonist's name which sounds as if I am calling myself. But I'm thankful to Ekta for considering me for her new show and I am enjoying every bit of it."

Here's hoping that this daily too enjoys the long innings that Kahin To Hoga (the show which is being replaced by Kayamath) had reveled.
