Review And Analysis Of Colors' Rangrasiya And Beintehaa; Which One Is Better?
Posted by: Ankita
Updated: Monday, January 6, 2014, 14:55 [IST]

Recently, Colors has launched two new shows that have replaced the Bigg Boss 7 time slot, Rangrasiya and Beintehaa. But the question remains that which among these two shows is a better one as both were launched on the same day, both have promising actors and the story line too is a unique one. Here is the review and analysis of these two shows which will make it clear for the viewers for which one to watch.

Lets start with Beintehaa, it is a show where the typical muslim family is depicted and their culture and traditions is focused more on. The story would be in a way where love takes over hatred and results to the maha milan of both the male and female protagonists. People believe that the show is working over the simplicity and are trying their best to put forward the realistic feel among the audiences.

On the other hand is the show Rangrasiya which has casts like Sanaya Irani and Ashish Sharma who are already experienced in the field of acting. The story revolves around these central characters who are soon to be in love. But, the twist would lies in the nationalism and patriotism that the story unleashes.

In the serial there are two stories that are running hand in hand but what impresses the audience is that despite two stories there is no story that is over powering the other and is neither making it upsetting for the audiences.

With what is being seen by the audiences Rangrasiya is slowly taking over Beintehaa as the concept is a different one. Beintehaa here lacks as the Muslim community connection has already been shown in the serial Qubool Hai.

Rangrasiya would surely come out as one of the best works only if there is no unnecessary added tadka and masala. Sticking to the same story line will surely benefit them in the long run. What Beintehaa needs to do right now is put in more effort and bring in twists that shock the audiences and increases their viewership.

Quick Five: Ashish Sharma - A different love story

Ashish Sharma with co-star Sanaya Irani in "Rang Rasiya".

Ashish Sharma is all set to feature in a new show called Rang Rasiya. The show is being aired on Colors channel at 9.30 p.m., and has been produced by Nautanki Films. Here the actor answers questions about the serial, his role and experience of working withSanaya Irani. The serial based on Shakespeare's play promises viewers an unusual fare.

Excerpts:
Describe your role in "Rang Rasiya"...
I play this guy called Rudra, who hails from Rajasthan, and is an army officer. He has turned out to be this guy who hates women, especially beautiful women, because of some incidents that happened in his past (during his childhood). He has no emotions, and does not even have love for himself. It's about a passionate and aggressive love story that grows between the two.

What convinced you to take up the project?

I have always been a huge fan of Shakespeare. All the characters in "Rang Rasiya" are inspired from the Shakespearean drama, "Othello". This is exactly what interested me to take up this role.

What kind of a response are you expecting from the audience?

The response that the promos have received is pretty good. So, I hope it only doubles when the show airs.

How was your experience working with Sanaya Irani?

Sanaya is fun to work with. She is kind of mad, and her nature is completely opposite to mine. has a completely opposite nature to mine. She would often talk, laugh and be lively all the time. I am her exact opposite, as I am the more reserved kind of guy, and I don't talk much.

What are your upcoming projects?

When you do such a show, you don't get time for other things. So right now it's just Rang Rasiya for me.

Chit-Chat With Raghuvir Shekhawat

Raghuvir Shekhawat needs no introduction in the Telly Industry. An acclaimed script writer, he is part of the creative team for a multitude of renowned TV shows like Balika Vadhu, Diya Aur Baati Hum, Madhubala: Ek Ishq Ek Junoon and Veera. Now he has added Rang Rasiya to his prized list. Expectations are huge as he gets ready to add his expertise and creativity to a magnum opus like Rang Rasiya which is being produced at a scale that TV has never seen before.

TeamSarun is very much thrilled to present this Interview with the man himself as he entertains us with his witty answers to our very serious questions. It has been a pleasure to interview him and we hope you find it entertaining too.

Why did you decide to become a dialogue writer?

Because i had nothing better to do...and dad threatened me to earn else would kick out of the house...;-)...Ok...was a poet from school days...so the inclination was there...Initially..i was doing comedies..and those were like weekly days..so was handling story screenplay dialogues all...But then ...dailies came...and in dailies its usually difficult to handle more than one department...so decided to write dialogues only..Though in Veera and another upcoming show of mine...doing screenplay as well.

Where do you get your inspiration from?

As clich as it may sound...from nowhere and from everywhere..I don't watch tv..I don't read ...I don't remember films..I haven't seen a play in life...so in that sense...no source of usual inspirations...but then...I read life...and that inspires hell of a lot...

How do you manage to balance a portfolio of shows?

Thats the challenge...i like to be in an insane stage...where the pressure is tremendous and I'm blank ...well...love to do different genres...styles...and concentration level is very high which helps...Also...one enjoys when the toys in shelf are lot...instead of daily playing with one...right..?

When you write, do words come first or images, sounds, a sensation maybe?

Words...like EMI's (monthly instalments)..foreign tours...lavish dinners...they keep on hammering and help me to write Well...i would love to romanticize it..but it's not like that...it's now in my blood... While writing...one needs to get into a stage of nirvana...where u cut off from the world...It takes me around 10-15 minutes to get onto that stage...and that's comparatively faster than others...at least that's what I tell myself...So...in that stage..i get blank...get transferred to the location in my mind...and start seeing the characters in front of me...Then...they speak...and i simply behave typist...

Once you have the basic idea for what you will be writing about, how do you expand on it to create enough to fill up an entire episode?

Situation guides me...rest...it's a lengthy process...

How do you get in to the skin of the character when writing the dialogues?

By drilling like a parasite...u tell me a better way ...Well...one looks at various factors...Their family background...education...social status...financial status...upbringing...and then u create the character..and their lines...

Describe Rangrasiya in one sentence.

Passionate love story...

Describe Rudra and Paro's characters in three words.

You mean in one and a half words Rudra and remaining one and a half Paro...? Ok...Rudra- fire...an(d) ..Paro-Breezer (don't grin...i'm not talking about the drink...i have only one and a half word and cool breeze is two words).

How much research was done on the geopolitical landscape of Rajasthan while penning down Rangrasiya since it deals with a lot of the border battles between the royalties and the Indian Government?

Hmmm...entirely fiction...no research in that sense...

Apart from being a love story, do you intend to put across a social message through Rangrasiya about the issues on the borderlands of India?

We are already putting..aren't we...? Terrorism is not only national...but social problem too..and how naive innocent people are brainwashed in going against country...

Love-Hate theme has been tried successfully in Desi shows with shows like Geet, Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon, Madhubala, Qubool Hai, etc. What makes Rangrasiya stand apart? What's the onus?. Why should viewers watch it?

Because Sanaya and Aashish are there and I'm writing..what else intellectual reason u guys want Yes..I agree shows on similar themes have been made...but what matters is...how u present it...how things get unfold...how the chemistry builds...The whole look..as by now u must have noticed is on a very grand scale..Every episode is like a 20 minute film...Infact...in one of the coming sequence...we have spent much more than a film would...and its mind blowing...Then..it's a ST show...treatment got to be different..Able writers like Rahil..Shivani..Gautam..Janaki are associated..Siddharth is one of the best directors..and Sanjay one of the best cinematographer..U need more reasons...? Please watch it so that i can pay for my house instalments...;-)

A woman of today .. What will inspire her about Paro?

Courage...the will to fight in the most adverse situation...(and also..a crash course in how to look good even while u r sobbing...that's the best take away).

RK's role in Madhubala is very dark. Is Rudra's character going to be along this line?

Rk has dark humour...that's not what Rudra has...secondly..we have also added patriotism in his character...Not saying RK is not...but the theme of his character is different..Bollywood..

What are the X-Factors about Rangrasiya?

X is Sanaya and Y is Aashish...;-) ...The scale..the passion in the love story...

What are the challenges of writing in the Rajasthani dialect for an artist whose first language is not Indian?
One has to be very careful as to not use lot of Rajasthani..and it shouldn't be tongue twisting...Also... though it gives feel that there's a lot of dialect..but observe carefully...i m using only 10"15 words... that's the trick...

Sanaya is speaking Rajasthani so perfectly. How did she overcome this challenge?

First...your Sanaya is a talented actress...half the job gets done there...Then ...we met a couple of times and I helped her a bit...third...we have a language instructor on sets...

It is said that the pen is mightier than the sword and words give birth to the emotions onscreen, actors are merely people who give forth their best based on the script given to them so going by that but it's the writer who is the real hero of the show. What do you think brings out the psychological impact on the viewers, how do the dialogues transcend through the various stages of emoting and finally reach the heart of the audience? Why is it that certain shows fail horribly in their script whilst the others have such a powerful impact? Is it because of a bad writer or is it luck?

Oye...it's a complicated question...i need to get paid for this...first...I believe it's a team work...good script +bad actors-=bad show...bad script+ good actors=bad show...

Second part...The dialogues have to connect with the viewers...touch the chord..actors have to understand the emotion a writer wants to portray...and then courier it to the viewers...director has to see to it that the package is getting delivered without getting damaged...

I would like to make it clear that no writer writes bad intentionally...or actor emotes..We all try and do our best...but we are humans...At times we falter... at times we succeed..Intention is to give the best...always...It's all about connection..How well we are able to tap that emotional thing in you...Yeah...luck plays a huge role...but then...even GOD's been unlucky when he was born as human...

And..I object to your last line...shows don't flop only because of bad luck or a bad writer...they may flop because of other factors also..including timing..direction...presentation...and actors...which unfortunately nobody wants to put fingers at...

Keep watching my shows..and keep bashing...it helps at home...i am becoming so thick skinned that its becoming easier to handle when my wife bashes me for other reasons...

Love-Raghuvir Shekhawat...

New Year means new beginnings and new fortune. Earlier in the week we carried a prediction story on what holds in the year 2014 for your favourite male television celebs. And now it's the turn of the fairer sex on small screen.
Over to our in-house Tarot card reader, Munisha Khatwani (names arranged alphabetically)

Sanaya Irani: Sanaya's Saturn planet is powerful and it works in her favour. Also her Venus and Jupiter are strong at this point of time. But due to strong Saturn there will be delay in her marriage. She is in her good phase of life. On personal front she might think to marry in 2015. I would advise her to wear a black thread on her ankle as she is prone to jealousy and evil eye. Her lucky months are February and June

THE SHOW HAS TURNED OUT EXACTLY HOW I EXPECTED IT TO BE: SANAYA IRANI
posted by Prerna Arora, last updated on January 12, 2014 at 7:33 pm

My family and friends, people from industry have all told me that I look pretty and the show seems promising. But more importantly I believe that when in your heart you know that what you're doing is worthy then nothing else matters.

Colors new show Rangrasiya depicts the violent love story of Rudra and Paro who meet under unfortunate circumstances. Set with the backdrop of Rajasthan the story follows the journey of Paro (Sanaya Irani) and how she falls in love with our unlikely hero Rudra played Ashish Sharma.

But doing a character like Paro was not an easy task for Sanaya. It was a different experience from the character that she has played before and that is what exactly she wanted to do in this new venture. "I was scared my body will get adapted to the bubbly kind of roles I have always done and I was very much eager to try out something different. When I heard the script of Rangrasiya I felt inclined to it immediately."

Getting in to the character turned out to be quite a challenge for Sanaya and she discussed the same with us. "Initially I couldn't understand how much was needed to be done for each scene. Over the course of the shooting I started to understand the character much better and thanks to the wonderful crew that we have who helped me at every point."

Now that Rangrasiya has already been aired on TV Sanaya believes that all the efforts of the team have paid off. "When Saurabhji (producer) narrated the story to me it all sounded larger than life which is usually the case when you sit through the first narration. But I'm really glad to see that the final result is exactly how I expected it to be."

It is also the reactions of the fans and family that has made Sanaya feel over the moon and she believes that good work always gets appreciated. "My family and friends, people from industry have all told me that I look pretty and the show seems promising. But more importantly I believe that when in your heart you know that what you're doing is worthy then nothing else matters."

We too believe that Sanaya's portrayal of Paro is surely a treat to watch and we're already looking forward to see how the story unfolds. Keep watching this space for all the latest updates!

Rangrasiya - The Unsaid Tale Of Rudra And Paro About To Begin

Nautanki Films' latest offering Rangrasiya is just like its name, the show though on the line of many other existing Rajasthani background shows, still clearly adds a new aura of Rang and Freshness' to the whole concept of this particular genre shows. Nautanki Films' shows are always out of the box and Rangrasiya is clearly a show which is Hatke' from the current running television soaps.

The show kick-started on the 30th of December 2013 with a lot of hype surrounding it and the way the show is progressing, it seems like Rangrasiya deserved all of the hype as the show is as promising as it seemed in its initial promos. The makers are doing a commendable job with their out of their box creative thinking. Whether it is the cinematography, direction, story or the actors, every aspect of the show is first class and is making the audiences' head turn.

Rangrasiya stars Sanaya Irani and Ashish Sharma as Parvati (Paro) and Rudra Partap Ranawat as lead protagonists. The actors are brilliant in portraying their characters. It seems as though Rudra and Paro's interaction in the real sense has not yet begun but yet the little shown of Rudra and Paro together until now has surely clicked on the chemistry aspect and we are thinking that if with such little interaction Rudra and Paro's chemistry is visible what would happen when their story actually begins? We believe it is ought to set the screen ablaze.

Like many of you even we are looking forward for Rudra and Paro's story to take centre stage. Seems like in the coming episodes and weeks the audiences would surely get to see more and more of Rudra and Paro together. From the date of its inception until now, the story has seen some very interesting twists and turns in order to build the characters.

Currently the track is focusing on Paro being married to Varun (Vishal Gandhi) and a confrontation between the wedding procession group and the BSD' takes place. While the question is still lingering of what would happen to Varun and whether he is the good guy or the bad guy, it will be interesting to see what is in store for the lead protagonists. Rudra and Paro's story is all set to begin and it would surely intrigue the viewers.

Rudra and Paro are two extreme opposite individuals, while one is the rough and tough Army officer, on the other hand there is Paro who is a soft and caring individual. We wonder what will happen when these two opposites will clash. When we think about it, it is indeed guaranteed that when these two opposite ends meet sparks will fly and ignite and create a whole new world of Rudra and Paro. The coming episodes of the show will focus and lay a base for Rudra and Paro's future and what awaits them.

Rangrasiya

In the coming episodes of Rangrasiya, the audience will witness Rudra and Paro in close proximity, where Rudra might want to confront Paro and ascertain from her as to how much she knows about the arms dealing agenda hidden behind the facade of a wedding. Whether or not Paro would see BSD in a good light or would she be unable to trust BSD and Rudra is something to be watched out for. Even if Rudra and Paro in the coming weeks are arguing, fighting, or they start on the wrong foot and hate each other yet their chemistry is ought to speak for itself and kindle the aura of a new age love story.

Both the lead actors Ashish and Sanaya are extremely good in their characters and they make the story come alive on screen. No wonder the show is already in news and we believe the soaps buzz will only increase and the show will raise high and high above.

So the unsaid tale of Rudra and Paro is about to begin in Rangrasiya. Are you excited? Are you looking forward to it? Do let us know in the comment section!

Don't forget to watch Rangrasiya, Monday to Friday at 9.30 PM, only on Colors Viacom 18.

Celebrity Bawarchi: Sanaya Irani

By Anita Raheja and Heena Agarwal

Sanaya Irani, one of the most popular faces on TV since Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon', is the proud possessor of alluring looks and a lean body.

I begin my day with: Breakfast. No water or tea for me. I feel very hungry when I wake up. My breakfast is eggs or museli, at times dalia. Sometimes, I have a paneer sandwich.

My diet preference: Non-vegetarian. I love chicken, but no mutton or sea-food for me.

My lunch: I carry from home. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am a vegetarian. My lunch comprises chicken curry or a butter chicken and sometimes chhole or rajma chawal.

I snack on: Samosas or whatever anyone has got. I like biscuits and pastries. I am constantly snacking so there is no concept of an evening snack

My favourite sweet: I have 32 sweet teeth; I love anything with chocolate.

My dinner: I prefer to eat an early dinner but it depends on how hungry I am. If I have eaten something around seven pm then I eat my dinner by 10 pm. And sometimes if I am not hungry I may just have a bowl of soup. Dinner is regular home food.

For health reasons: I eat veggies. Earlier, I would not eat veggies but of late, my mom insists I do. I try to eat salads too. I wish I could avoid sweets.

I love to binge: On Chinese and Italian fare.

A childhood memory associated with food:

I was obsessed with sweets. In fact, I would make friends with those who had chocolates.

I can cook: Excellent cheesecakes, chocolate mousse, anything with chocolate I love baking. Apart from baking, I can only make instant noodles, toast and eggs. I am terrible at making tea. If anyone comes home and asks for a cup of tea I am in a fix; but I can make coffee.

My favourite Parsi dish: Dhanshak.

I feel guilty after eating: I don't feel guilty. I feel very happy after eating and I guess that's the reason why I don't put on weight.

For a romantic meal: The ambience of the restaurant is important. It can be a small place as long as it is dimly lit with small shimmering candles all over. A nice Italian meal would be perfect.
