The Battle of Sexes ? Zara Nachke Dikha on Star Plus has opened to a great response. While the boys and girls teams are packed with some great performers, the same cannot be said of the hosts Mohit Sehgal and Sanaya Irani.
The hosts were found lacking during the shoot of the first two episodes, which forced the channel and production house to think of replacing them.
According to our source, "During the shoot of the first two episodes, Mohit and Sanaya could not put in their punch as hosts. The shoot was delayed a lot as the two had to go thro' too many retakes. Even the judges especially Shilpa Shetty was very much irked, and had even asked the crew to give the hosts some proper rehearsals before they appear on stage the next time".
All this prompted the channel to look for a proper replacement, and they have now managed to get a new set of hosts who will take over from Mohit and Sanaya from the third episode onwards.
According to our source, "Jennifer Winget who is presently seen in Star One's Dill Mill Gaye has proven her worth as host earlier, and will now be seen hosting Zara Nachke Dikha. RJ Mantra who is a very popular RJ at Radio Mirchi will be giving her company".
When contacted, Mohit Sehgal confirmed that Sanaya and he are not hosting ZND, but had a different reason to give. "Yes, it is true that we will not be hosting ZND from the 3rd episode. In fact, we have some issues with the date. We had to continuously shoot for 32 hours for the 1st episode, which hampered our shoot for the Star One show. Above all, the track in Miley Jab Hum Tum is revolving around Sanaya and me; so it gets very difficult to manage both".
A little birdie told us, "The shoot for the 3rd episode is happening today, and it will be Jennifer Winget and RJ Mantra who will be hosting the episode".
We tried contacting Jennifer, but she remained unavailable.
Our efforts to get in touch with Fazila Allana of SOL were in vain. We could not get a confirmation from the channel too.
