Sunil Pal and Himani Kapoor

There's tension brewing on the sets of Antakshari as host Himani Kapoor seems to be rather unwilling to let co-host Sunil Pal share any of the limelight. Allegedly, Himani grabs Sunil's lines and promotes herself on the show. "Himani has done that several times and is unapologetic about it," informs a unit member.

The first season of Antakshari (Zee TV) had become popular for its fun element. But its host, Annu Kapoor's habit of outwitting his co-hosts had not gone unnoticed. Now history is repeating itself .

When contacted, Sunil appeared cheesed off. "She interrupts me when I am talking, or even when I am singing a song. I know she does it to grab attention, more screen space and be the front-runner."

Sunil adds, "I ignored it a couple of times because it is not right to discuss such matters in the middle of the shoot as it may affect our enthusiasm. But when her behaviour crossed limits, I had a talk with her one day.

"Instead of acknowledging her fault, she was indifferent. She got angry and told me, 'You don't know how to sing'. It's sad to be treated like this by a new entrant. I just hope it doesn't affect our chemistry and the show."

Himani is performing in the West Indies and could not be contacted for comment.
