Friends , I am not from Mumbai but am prepared to go there and camp outside the Zee office with all you youngsters if you think the cause is worth it ! And I mean this dil se as I have been very constrained with the dictatorial attitude of the channels ..not just Zee ...others too treat the actors as well the PH like bonded labour . I have written about this in detail on many forums . This needs to be eradicated and Zee ( if they had any decency) would not have used this language to begin with to defame KSG using such derogatory terms.
The pattern repeats itself every now and then and the worst sufferers are the viewers. This supremacy of the channels needs to be tackled in a more organised manner ...on a bigger platform..
I am seriously working on this with the associated regulatory authorities and more of us need to do this .The concerned channel just close doors and carries on irrespective of the heartbreak that the audience suddenly faces ..they are too thick skinned to care . I have been through this ,,another channel another actor ..the effect was as distressing .All similiar measures were taken but no one heard our voices.
While things are worked out on the bigger platform what we CAN do is boycott QH ! I no we will never unite over this ..many reasons will be given the funniest being the people losing their jobs ! While I sympathise with the workers surely the onus for this falls on the employers and not us . Look at it this way ...it is KSG and us who secured, their jobs all this while ...why did Zee tilt the balance to effect this scenario !

Friends as a short term measure this is the only power we have ...boycott QH !!! Zee will rue their high handedness as TRPS fall.

An actor has the right to leave a show when the track is altered and it does not satisfy him...just as we have the right to change our jobs. He has the right to a personal life just as we have .Why do we and the CH expect them to work as bonded labour ? Most important who gives them the right to malign an artist by bringing out skeletons from the cupboard ...do the vouch they have none in their own ?

As far as Karan is concerned we have been with him since DMG ...we do not really pay attention to what occurs in his personal life...the heart has its reasons and we wish him well and do not require to delve any deeper into what we can not fathom.These stars live in glass houses and I am sorry for them as their lives are dissected so minutely.There is no point in being judgemental about matters we know nothing about and just conjecture !

For us it is enough that he is such an amazing performer ..we just need him on screen ! No amount of vilification is going to change that !

Fasten your seatbelts, for this is one
helluva roller coaster article!!!
The industry rose to a rude shock
when the news of Karan Singh
Grover being sacked by Zee TV from
the show Qubool Hai (4 Lions Films)
hit the headlines.
The channel head Ajay Balwankar
spoke and spoke in volumes against
the popular actor to the media, who
according to him has been
unprofessional and also mentioned
about a probable legal action
against KSG (as Karan is lovingly
called by legion of his fans).
Earlier in the day, we also wrote
about Raqesh Vashisth coming in as
the replacement of KSG. But amidst
all this, everyone wanted KSG to
open up on the alleged controversy.
After all, his reputation was at stake.
Everyone wondered, why was he
keeping mum? Was he trying to
maintain a dignified silence, or was
waiting for the storm to settle down
before rising from the dust? When
we buzzed him, all he said that he
would soon issue an official press
statement. We waited and waited
and refreshed our email inbox, but
nada, it only showed silence from
KSG's side.
But we were awakened by a sms late
in the night asking, Can we talk
now?' The message was sent by
Karan, anxious and insistent on
sharing is heart out. We knew it
would be a long conversation. So
quickly grabbing a cup of hot coffee,
and settling in comfily with a pen
and paper in hand (yes, we like the
traditional way), we rang up "the"
Karan Singh Grover.
Hello Karan, hope you are good. So
what's all been written about you?
"I am good thank you. Yes, I have
read what has been written about
me and I have been waiting to talk.
I delayed not because I was scared,
but I wanted to see how low the
channel would stoop to defame me.
Whatever has been spoken against
me today by Zee authorities have
left a very bad taste in the mouth,
and I will not let go easily, "said
Karan in a heavy tone.
He continued and we let him speak,
"It has been said that I came on the
sets drunk, which is an utter lie. It
is extremely sad that way they have
spoken about me. The truth is that
my contract got over 3 months back.
Right at the beginning I made it
very clear that I would stay with the
show for a year and then move on. I
stayed on because Vikrant (Massey)
left the show at the time when my
contract expired, and being close to
Gul (Producer Gul Khan), I did not
want the show to get affected.
Hence, I did not renew the contract
but continued to shot for Qubool
Hai."
So why did he want to quit? "See, I
have been keeping very unwell.
Right now I am in Delhi and I am
not holidaying here. I am suffering
from some ailment which I don't
want to talk about but yes, multiple
physical tests are being done on me.
I am in Delhi for health reasons. I
had a meeting with the channel on
19th of this month wherein I told
them about my problem and they
understood it. But on that day they
asked me to stay on for a month and
then leave. I was worried that
people love the character of Asad
and they would miss it dearly. So I
sat with the juniors of Ajay
Balwankar and pondered upon how
to show my exit. I told them instead
of replacement, for many fans
connect me with Asad, kill my
character and get a new lead. All
was good but then bam...comes
today's version from Ajay."
Are you hurt? "Absolutely. You know
what, I told Balwankar's juniors that
I plan to produce my own show.
They told me to do it with Zee and
not go to any other channel. They
told me to sign an exclusive contract
with Zee and I agreed to everything.
I said whenever things materialise, I
would love to work with them again.
Then where is all the negativity
coming from suddenly? This shows
how less informed Balwankar is
when it comes to the meetings I
have had with his juniors pertaining
to Qubool Hai. The statement was
absolutely uncalled for as I gave
them dates to end my track. Instead
of talking to the press, Balwankar
could have just called me up and
cleared his doubts. He could have
been open minded. He has no right
to talk garbage about me to people.
They told me to postpone my
medical check-ups. I beseeched
them to allow me to take a break
and in return I promised them to
give another 3-4 months of time to
the show. I said it was physically
not possible for me to continue
shooting. And this is how they
reacted to it. Called me an
unprofessional."
After a small pause, KSG went on, "I
think I became the victim of a
channel's ego. They think how can
an actor dare to leave us. They
would like it the other way. They
would say we threw him out. I am
completely disappointed and
shocked at this point of time. I just
want to state that Balwankar has
been in the industry for a far more
time than me. It's not that we were
unaware of each other's existence.
He could have taken into
consideration our one year of
relationship and acted accordingly.
Now it's more like one more show,
one more channel, one more person.
Very sad. Know what, you guys wrote
about Raqesh (Vashisth) replacing
me, I am the one who convinced him
to be a part of the project, as Asad
is a very loved character. He is a
very dear friend to me. You do so
much and what you get in
return...humiliation."
What about the legal case that the
channel intends to file on him? "Oh,
they have no base for that. My
contract got over with the channel.
The only person who can file a legal
case is me against Zee for
defamation, which I am considering
seriously."
This will get dirty, it seems!!!
Before signing off he said, "I have no
issue with Gul at all. She is a lovely
person. I just wanted to share the
truth with my fans who love me a lot
and have supported me throughout.
I felt they should know my side of
the story. I have nothing else to say.
Thank you everyone and I will be
soon back doing what I do the best."
Whoa...he really opened up, didn't
he? As they say, the absolute truth
is always someone else. But all we
can say, these are issues which keep
cropping up in the entertainment
industry. We just hope both Zee and
Karan find peace and do great in the
future. Let us know about your
thoughts in the comment section
below.
