Producer Manish Goswami, whose serials Aisa Des Hai Mera and Kituu Sabb Jaanti Hai are currently on air, threw a party for actress Shveta Salve last night. It was Goswami's way of cheering up Shveta, who lost the competition to Mona Singh in Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. The party, hosted at a suburban joint, was attended by their close friends in the industry.
An overwhelmed Shveta said, "It was indeed a nice gesture on Manishji's part to throw a party for me. Actually, ever since Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa started, I had been saying that irrespective of the result, I would throw a party for my friends and colleagues. But Manishji said that the party was on him."
When Shveta lost the competition, Goswami was among the first few to call her and speak to her. "He was very supportive of me. He tried to cheer me up and said some encouraging words. I have worked in three of his serials. He also knows my boyfriend Rodney (Barnes), and is like a family member to us. I have always depended on Manishji for suggestions at any point of time. Manishji plays the big daddy in my life," Shveta added. When contacted, Goswami said that this party was his way of showing his affection towards her. He added, "It was to acknowledge and appreciate her hard work."
