"2003-: 'The Verdict' directed by Divya Palat starring Hosi Vasunia, Tanaaz Currim, Aditya Hitkari, Vivan Bhatena, Anu Menon (Lola Kutty) among others. This was India's first Interactive Courtroom Drama where the audience decided whether the accused is 'Guilty or 'Innocent.' 11 Jury members were chosen at random from among the audience and they decided the fate of the accused. After they pronounced the Verdict, the actors then continued with the ending of the play which revealed the real truth!
The play premiered at The Taj as part of the Centenary Celebrations.
BALANCING ACT PRODUCTIONS besides promoting English theatre in India supports several charitable causes.
As you are aware, Balancing Act Productions produced India's first Interactive Courtroom Drama, "The Verdict", last year. We premiered at The Taj. The proceeds from the second show of 'The Verdict' held once again at The Taj Ballroom went to an Organisation called DEEDS which facilitates the 'Education of the Girl Child in Kashmir.' The entire ticket collections amounting to over 8 LAKHS went to DEEDS."

Telly take on frills of life | ||

There is more to fashion on television than Fashion TV. And with new shows and channels being uplinked, lifestyle is the buzz byte on beam. Trendz, the one-year-old channel ?where life meets style?, has gone local with Diabolical while Discovery is gearing up to slip into its lifestyle avatar. Zee Network?s 24-hour fashion and style channel Trendz has been treating viewers to glimpses of global lifestyle. ?Trendz (unlike FTV) is not ramp-based fare. It goes backstage, talks to models and discusses their hairstyle,? says Madhuri Malhotra, associate vice-president, programming. In fact, Trendz has done a lot to break the perception of fashion being unending catwalks in revealing clothes. One can catch up with the terms and the trends through educative fare like The History of Trousers, where the talking points are the differences between Capri and Bermuda or the days when bell bottoms became the rage. This way when fashion dos are profiled, and creative concepts behind each designer?s collections discussed, one can be ?with it?. Diabolical, a Thursday night special anchored by Vivan Bathena (picture above), is billed to be the magazine guide to the best hang-outs. ?It is urban, classy, energetic and pan-Indian,? says Malhotra. The show, which dropped in at Tantra a couple of weeks ago, will also hold forth on a plethora of look-good arenas like monsoon make-up, hair-streaking, office and partywear. ?Keeping today?s racy lifestyle in mind, we offer one-minute tips as snippets,? she adds.
?Tripathi explains that the accent on fashion and lifestyle on television is a reflection of shifting gears in life around us. ?In today?s double-income families, a vacation is no more a visit to the grandparents. There are golfing holidays and packaged tours. People are eating out and experimenting with food. Cars are being changed with an eye on new models. Homes are being done up and people are conscious of their looks.? With the willingness to spend has come a demand for information. ?Television is the place where advertisers meet their target consumers,? he sums up. | ||

| A still from Kumkum |
Post the generation leap in Star's afternoon soap, Kumkum — Ek Pyara Sa Bandhan, it's time for some wedding celebrations. Kumkum's (Juhi Parmar) son Dhruv (Vivan Bathena) and Antara (Sayantani Ghosh) tie the knot.
In fact, producer Anurradha Prasad of BAG Films has shot a 26-minute episode to chronicle the marriage in today and tomorrow's episode. After the marriage Sia (Karishma Mehta) leaves for Australia while the newly-weds fly to Switzerland and Paris for their honeymoon.
Aroop Adhikari has designed the bedecked set and Shivani Shirali has styled the costumes for the entire cast. With Dhruv's wedding, we wonder what new dilemmas will Kumkum face now?
