TV STAR TRAIL

'And the much in love couple retort back'
by Vidhya Krishnan
Jun 30, 2008, Bangalore

Two sides to a coin is the thumb rule of journalism. And earlier in the day, we had reported feisty Madhura's famous words, "I don't scare easily, so Ali and his new found love can take their threats elsewhere!" We got cracking on unraveling the mystery behind the threats and decided to get our fingers into the pie.

We caught up with the much-in-love- couple, Ali Merchant and Sara, to unveil the facts based on what we heard from Madhura Naik. And the puzzled couple said…

Ali Merchant

I really don't understand what is being cooked up. Let me make things clear, I am in this industry much before Madhura stepped in. We met 2-3 years back and were good friends and as a friend, I referred her to play a role in 'Amber- Dhara' but however she has come on her own after that and I don't deny that. Why should I threaten her? I have my own commitments and I don't even have the time to catch up with my friends. So when there are enough and more things to keep me busy, for what joy will I get into doing such things?

Ask anyone, and they will tell you about her. She is doing this purely to gain publicity at my cost. And she is also very jealous of my relationship with Sara but I consider her and the story that she is cooking up to be SMALL to cause any strain in our relationship. I have asked Sara not to bother and be professional about it. Anyways it won't make a difference because we may tie the knot within a year or two from now and nothing can shake this beautiful strong relationship that we have.

You can check with anybody but the fact is that. I play the lead in two serials and I don't need any publicity!
But Madhura clearly does need the attention and the publicity. She was just an acquaintance to me and she is generally not so friendly with anybody. Pure jealousy, attention seeking tactics – call it by any name, it is an under hand move by Madhura and it reflects very poorly on her character.

Sara Khan

What! Are you serious! Jeez, this is the first time I'm hearing this. Madhura and I are very good friends and it is strange to hear such things. However she has told me several times to be careful about my relationship with Ali and I have asked her not to interfere in these matters. I wish not to comment on this matter any further because nothing is true and there is no use talking about it.

So each one has a different story, but what the REAL TRUTH is, is a million dollar question? Publicity gimmick or truly a divide between colleagues caught up in the love-lust triangle…either or, it's a good way to kick start the week!

Ok, now i guess Madhura is lying, as in one article she is saying that 'when i heard about Ali-Sara's engagement, I just asked her about it, then i dont know what happened between the 2 lovers and i am getting threatening calls from ali' and in another article she is saying that 'i asked Sara to be careful of ali', and sara is also admitting in this article that Madhura said that to Sara. So that means Madhura is going on lying and changing her statements! And if u see from this article itself u can make out how simpler a person Sara is that she dint even say anything against Madhura's comments against her, and she is still maintaining that they are friends. Maybe Madhura dint like Sara telling her to stop interfering in their relationship, thats y she is saying all crap about Sara!

About Ali mentioning that Madhura is not very friendly with anyone, I guess that might be true as she had come to Kya Aap Panchvi Paas Se Tez Ho in the Sara-Parul episode and while everyone were talking very friendlyly to Shah Rukh, she appeared a bit reserved not being too friendly.

Maybe since her role is ending next week, she is trying to gain some attention as she would no longer be a part of India's current top seriel.

Anyways, I dont think Madhura is wrong when she says Ali is a Casanova, but apart from that I think she is cooking up some stuff on her own to gain attention! Thats wat I think, and anyways I dont like her in the seriel also, so glad her role would be ending next week, atleast Sara would be peaceful from her interferance and rude behaviour.

I do not believe Sara and Ali. This is the same Sara who said in a previous article that she was not dating anyone but Angad was. This girl will say and do anything to make her self look good, and trash everyone else.

I dont think just cos she denied dating anyone, she is trying to make herself look good or trying to trash others! It is her personal life and she has got the right to maintain her privacy if she doesnt want to disclose it. Look at big bollywood stars like Saif-Kareena, Abhishek-Aish, etc., initially there were also going around saying 'we are just friends' and stuff, but later on they admitted. Maybe at the time Sara denied dating anyone, she wasnt sure if Ali was the right person for her so she dint want to publicise it and later find out that Ali is not right for her, so maybe she just wanted to be sure of her feelings and relationship before going public. But the moment she was confident, it was she herself who admitted that she was dating Ali. So I dont think there is anythign wrong in it.

Sara did not say anything, because she is clever, but is the trouble maker. Madhura I think is having to defend herself, after she told Sara to be careful. Sara probably told Ali, and Ali probably started making calls to Madhura. Madhura is not changing her statements, but just adding more. Where as Sara lies, and changes the truth to make her self look good. I think Madhura is talking because Ali made a comment that he will get her out of this industry, and she is defending herself.

I think u dint read my comment properly, pls read the point marked in blue, isnt that what Madhura did called changing her statements? This is the proof that she is lying. And in all this where did Sara lie apart from not making her relationship with Ali public earlier? Do you have any proof that Sara is lying here? There is nothing wrong in not admitting u are dating someone unless u are sure about that person. And wats wrong if Sara tells her own boyfriend that someone else asked her to be careful of him? And how can u be so sure that Ali threatened Madhura? What if she is lying?

All Madhura did was as a good friend should do, obviously she knew Ali way before Sara, so all she said is to be careful with her relationship, and Sara probably said thanks but its between me and Ali, and pls dont interfere

I say Madhura was looking out for her

I dont see Ali denying that he was pursuing Madhura whilst she was with someone, all he is concerned about is the threatening part and he hopes that Madhura isnt sayign anything bad about him to Sara

We do not know maybe they are getting rid of Madhura because of this fight. They could have prolonged her role. I was wondering why her role is coming to a end so soon.

She's been in the show for 2 months, and thats long enough for a golddiggar lol

I think she might be back in Bidaai in the future, also Madhura did mention she might be back in Kumkum as Tina
