Star attraction

Fox Television Studios, a subsidiary of Star India, had produced "Meri Awaz Ko Mil Gayi Roshini", which became a runaway hit on Star Plus. It was for the first time that one of the biggest broadcasters in India, Star TV, produced its own mega serial. The idea was clear that they did not want to be squeezed by major content providers (like Ekta?) who also supply content to rival channels. Now Fox Television Studios is coming out with its second mega serial, "Sangam" on Star Plus (Monday-Thursday 7 p.m.) from August 20. "Sangam" depicts the story of Ganga, a small town girl who is intelligent and ambitious. She strives to fulfil her father's dreams. Jennifer Winget (of "Kasautii Zindagi Ki" fame) plays Ganga.

Chaitanya Chaudhary of "Kahiin Toh Hoga" will soon be seen on Star Plus playing the character of Sagar in the new serial "Sangam". Here are some of the foodie's palate favourites.

Are you a complete foodie or do you watch what you eat?
I used to be an all-out foodie, but now I have to watch what I eat because of my profession. I just can't afford to be careless about it.

Your favourite cuisine -Continental/Oriental/Indian/others.
Although I like many cuisines, my favourite is Chinese. And yes, I must mention that I love lady's-finger, I simply relish Bhindi Masala.

What do you prefer --- homemade food or outside food?
No second thoughts about this, it has to be homemade food.

Girls please hit on me: Shaleen
30 Aug 2007, 0000 hrs IST,ITI SHREE MISRA ,TNN


Like most of the TV actors these days, that he got into acting by sheer coincidence.


There is something special about Shaleen Bhanot which endears him to all the viewers instantaneously, inspite of all the bad man roles he's played on television in serials like Kulvaadhu, Kaajal and Saat Phere etc.
He maintains, like most of the TV actors these days, that he got into acting by sheer coincidence. But when Shaleen Bhanot says it, he means it.

I was happily assisting my Dad in business and learning the ropes of it when suddenly everything changed for me. Never in my wildest of dreams had I thought of getting into acting. Infact I always wanted a white-collar job for myself, says he.

Shaleen came to Mumbai for a business contract and instead found himself at the audition of MTV Roadies and subsequently a part of it, touring the country which later on led to his doing serials and also a few films.
The films that Shaleen has worked in include a Bengali Film Devdoot with none other than Mithun Chakraborty and Hindi flick Pyare Mohan with Viviek Oberoi and Fardeen Khan. An avid Mithun fan, Shaleen is full of praises for the actor. "Mithun Da is fantastic. I got to learn so much from him. Pyare Mohan on the other hand was loads of fun to do."

But that's not all that there is to this lively young actor. Passionate about dance, Shaleen is proficient in several forms of dance including Jazz, Kathak, Salsa and ofcourse the filmy latka-jhatkas. "Dance is something which I love, it helps me understand my body-language," says Shaleen. But his hectic schedule does not allow him to indulge in this passion of his. Add to this the two separate businesses that he is single handedly handling.

But unlike his on-screen persona, on most days one would find Shaleen Bhanot listening to Sufi numbers by Abida Parveen rather than partying or dating girls. He is absolutely unapologetic for the lack of action and passion in his life. "I'm not a party guy, so I don't miss out on fun that way. And as far as romance goes, I don't want it right now," says this dynamic youngster. "I want to work now and then settle down with a girl who's simple, sweet and loving. Till then I don't want any distractions. I've sketched my life and till date it as gone as planned by me and I don't want to change that," says he.

But like any typical youth he doesn't mind being eye-candy to girls. "Although I would love girls hitting on me. Someone hit on me, yaar!" pleads Shaleen.


But the guys beware as he can be as dangerous in real life as he is on the small-screen. Shaleen had once set fire to his friends trousers out of sheer jealousy.

Coming from a conservative family, Shaleen's childhood was spent devoid of films and television viewing. So now that he's part of this arc-light, how do his parents react? "My parents, especially my Dad is cool about it although my Mom loves the attention she gets when I'm with her. They are both proud of me and it makes me feel damn good."

Talking of his future projects, Shaleen informs that as of now he's busy 24x7 with his two serials and the rest he'll see as it comes be it films or TV.
Well we wish that these sparkling kohl lined eyes never stop dreaming and that all those dreams get fulfilled.

Jennifer Winget who's popular as Kasauti Zindagi Kay's Sneha has bagged the lead role in Fox Television's new soap Sangam to be aired on Star Plus. The actress who's playing a mother to a grown-up girl in Kasauti..., couldn't have asked for a better break...
Is Sangam your first lead role?
No, I had done a Balaji serial Karthika, aired on Hungama, in which I played the title role. It was a very good experience. I learnt a lot in this serial.ng part of a daily serial, Since it was a daily soap, I was in every scene and that helped me gain confidence in front of the camera. I also gained a little knowledge about direction and camera angles. I think I grew up with this serial. Sangam, however, is my first lead role in a Star Plus serial and it is entirely a different role, which I think I am fortunate to get. Its about this small-town girl Ganga who does her best to fulfuil her father's dream.

Not many people know about your Karthika...
Yeah, that's because the serial was basically targetted at the youth and was on air for seven months. It didn't get the kind of response it deserved. But it was a very good show where I played this 16 year old girl who wanted to be a pop singer and idolised a academic man. It was a cute Archie comic kind of a story...

What is so special about Ganga that differentiates her from other protagonists?
Ganga is this sweet, simple, innocent but ambitious girl. Though she has her own aspirations, her main aim is to fulfill her father's dream, that of opening a school in the town. For Ganga, her father is the epitome of everything in life. One incident, however, shatters the entire family and with it her ambitions and aspirations bite dust. Yet, she decides to pursue her father's dream. Like river Ganga, which flows over all obstacles, my Ganga faces all the hurdles and overcomes them. It's the journey of a fun-loving, lively girl transforming into a mature, understanding woman. A complete role and a beautiful character replete with a myriad emotions, it requires so much energy that at the end of the day's shoot I feel exhausted but content .

How did you land this role?
I had a meeting with the Fox people but initially, because of certain issues I wasn't doing the role. However, after a month it came back to me.

And Jennifer was destined to play Ganga...
(Laughs) Yeah, I know it sounds odd but you could say that.

Do you relate to the character?
I relate to the emotional side of Ganga. I feel Ganga has to go through a lot in life and she has so much strength. She teaches me a lot. I am extremely moody, if I am in a mood to have fun, I can be the joker, in not, I will just sit in the corner. In comparision, Ganga is full of life.

Now that you are doing another daily, will you continue to play Sneha in Kasautii Zindagi Kay?
Sneha has got me a lot of recognition and money. It (Sneha) is still on. I entered the serial two years ago when it took its first generation leap. Sneha comes from a sophisticated family and has a mind of her own. In between she had one through many lows, become a drug-addict and ended up losing her first and second husband. Now she is the mother of a grown-up girl.

So, this serial has come at an opportune time where you are playing yourself?
