There is something or the other we hear each and everyday whether it is about soaps or reality shows. Giving something new everyday has become a part and parcel of TV. Gossip is what we are interested in and we have a lot of it coming everyday. Now we are giving a sneak peep into what is happening in Ek Se Badhar Ek…

Wild card entries in Zee TV Ek Se Badhkar Ek:

Abhishek Awasthi who's claim to fame is Rakhi Sawant's hapless boyfriend is desperately trying to make a mark of his own in the tinsel town. Though he managed to catch the eyes of the Zee TV's Ek Se Badkar Ek team and got an entry into the show to showcase his caliber but to his utter dismay got eliminated when he was pitted against Kushal Punjabi in the final round. After a volley of angry exchange with Judge Ahmed Khan he was voted out. The obstinate guy simply refused to believe that he was ousted from the show. For this self proclaimed best dancer it was impossible to digest the fact that Kushal proved to be better than him.

Now the grapevine is abuzz that Abhishek is making a wild card entry into the show again (sympathy votes…as our esteemed judge Abhijeet would say) along with a new partner Meenal Jain.

We spoke to Abhishek regarding the wild card entry and he said, "I got eliminated wrongly and probably that day was not a good day for me. Anyways Kushal had to get it and he is good. This is a competition and everyone needs to have the spirit. But on public demand, I will make a re-entry and I feel very good about it. It is not easy to make a re-entry and since I have another chance, I have a bigger challenge and things are not going to be all that easy. The expectations will rise and my performance should be better than ever before. Anyways I want to give my best and hope this second chance will be in my favour".

The other two jodi's making a wild card entry are Mussarat Abbas (of Saregamapa Challenge 2007 fame) and Sanober Kabir and Aishwarya and Aanchal Dwivedi. With the fresh lot of participants the competition is sure going to hot up..!! Let's see whether Mr. Awasthi gets lucky for the

We'll also look forward to another season of fleeting romance (exit Sumedha, enter Meenal…..!!. All the new jodis are very kicked to compete with each other and showcase their talent not only in front of the judges but the entire nation. Now the show is on with seven jodis in all standing tall against one another.

The special guests for the evening were none other than Manoj Bajpayee, Ganesh Acharya and Hansika Motwani to promote their forth coming movie, Money hai toh Honey hai. Apparently Bhojpuri Badshah, Ravi Kishen, is also a part of the venture.

Jasveer works on her outfit!

The reality show has reached a stage wherein each week, every individual wants to perform something innovative and also try to look very different from what they have been appearing in the past episodes. This week the case was a little different…probably a sudden competition had cropped up between the two dancing queens, Jasveer and Shayantani.

In the course of presenting something different, both of them have started wearing minimal attires. Earlier it was only the Naaginn (Shayantani) who insisted on wearing revealing clothes. Taking a leaf from her book our very own Pavitra (Jasveer Kaur) decided to share all her inhibitions and don the sexy chick avtaar. So, Ms Kaur decided to wear this dangerously low cut top to look appealing and sexy. Infact she insisted the designer to make it even low. However her dressing didn't go down too well with the creative team of Zee TV. After all Ek Se Badkar Ek is a family show. So after lot of thinking a similar colour neck patch was used to cover the same. Though not too happy with the decision, Jassi had no option but to bow down to the demands of the channel.

When contacted Jasveer was clueless and said, "I have no idea and there was nothing that happened. I am the one who decides what I wear and people are comfortable about it. And there was no such a thing where people felt awkward or uncomfortable with my outfit. May be something happened with someone else but not me".
