Jassi makers planning daily show on Zee

Ever since they launched Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin on Sony, there has been speculation on what Tony and Deeya Singh would do next.

For two years, the Singhs concentrated all their energies on Jassi. But now they are set to launch a new show on Zee — the new project, still untitled, will be a daily serial, comprising mainly new actors.

Preeti Dayal, one of the writers on Jassi who had quit mid-way, is writing the new show, whose creative director will be Satyam Tripathi — he recently directed Special Squad (Star One).

Says Tripathi, "I left Special Squad (he did it for 10 months) because I got bored doing the same thing again and again."

"Yes, we are doing a show for Zee, but it's too early to talk about it," says Deeya Singh. Says a Zee source, "The Singhs are originally Zee people, and the deal happened very smoothly.

The dialogues are being written and auditions are in progress. Shooting will commence soon." In the 90s, Tony and Deeya's Banegi Apni Baat aired on Zee for six years.

Jumaani's verdict

Predicts numerologist Sanjay B Jumaani, "Tony and Deeya Singh are both number two people — they are expected to deliver another Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin in 2005.

The Zee show will be a big hit. I gave them the spelling of "Jaissi" in Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin. Originally, they were going with a single "s".

They have consulted me on the title this time too. I am sure they'll incorporate whatever I have told them."
