Ali Asgar's magic words



"I never thought I could crack such one liners on the show but at the moment I would say they have become the talk of the show. I don't really know how it turns out to be so funny. Nevertheless it's my pleasure to be like that. But the fact is most of the time I keep quiet on the show. And that way I save my energy so that I can deliver a punch to the opponent team when my team requires it. And on top of that I am the captain of boys' team so I have to also be responsible towards my team."

When asked about the finale, Ali says, "We boys are practicing very hard for the finale but you never know the result. You know it's like any other game... players try hard but they are not aware of the ultimate decision."

But one of the things that is worrying Asgar, is the fact that one of his man contenders Chaitanya is unwell and out of the running. "I know he is one of the best dancers we had but unfortunately he won't be performing in finale. He is hospitalized so we have only seven of us to perform. And of course, we are a bit hampered in his absence. And Bakhtiyar is also not well so the pressure is on us but our never giving up spirit will lead us to win," Ali syas with complete optimism.

Chaitanya misses everyone on ZND


"I know it's the saddest thing could ever happen to me," Chaitanya said, "and I really miss everyone from ZND. It's been a week now that I am in hospital because of severe fever. But certainly I miss ZND; it has taught me the ABC of dancing."

He said that personally too he had benefited from being on the show. "I have made really good friends on the show. And I miss them all from bottom of my heart."

What did he miss most about the show? "I miss my dancing!" he said, "It's a shame that I could not perform further, and I really worked hard for the finale. But unfortunately, I won't be able to perform further on ZND."

Chaitanya said that while he missed being on the show, he didn't regret missing out because that was part of life. "Sometime you are all set, but an obstacle comes and stops you and makes you stand still," he said philosophically, "but you move on."

He said he would rather focus on the fabulous time he had on the show. "The journey on ZND so far has been superb and I will miss it. Truly, it was one of the best dance realty shows I did," he said, adding that he learnt a lot about the aspects of dance forms.

He praised the judging to say that it had been excellent. We asked him if he had a word for those left on the show. "Best of luck to all for finale!" he said, "And may the best performer take all with him!"

Gaurav and Narayani should marry now, says Ashita


"Well, in my opinion, Gaurav Chopra and Narayani Shashtri are the most glowing couple on the ZND," Ashita said, "I think they must marry now, it's really high time for them!" She said she had learnt to know them better on the show and liked what she saw. "Both of them are really decent people as I found on the show," she said, "I think they are made for each other."

Asked what she learnt on the show, Ashita said: "The journey will come to an end on 28th September but I will really miss it. It was a learning experience all the way or rather I would say; it was a self-development concert for me. I discover a lot of hidden dancing skills, which were unknown to me."

"So I can say now, I have what I had, but was not aware of those talents," Ashita said, "I got enlighten on ZND, to carry out myself in dignified way, even in low circumstances."

Asked who she thought had the most attractive figure on the show, Ashita named Jennifer Winget. "It has to be Jennifer; she is the most gorgeous lady on the show, with a toned body," Ashita said, "And on top of that, she is very calm and devoted to her part on ZND. She makes any hard task very easy and executes it to perfection. Since we started ZND together I have known her, and now we both are good friends now!"

Gaurav OK with Chunky's pranks


Asked about being at the receiving end of Chunk's (as everyone refers to Chunky on the show) attentions, Gaurav said: "It has become as regular as breakfast for me on the show. He always comes up to me on the show and has one or the other one-liner to offer me."

But he said he took it in the right spirit. "It's fun you know everybody likes it, and so do I," said Gaurav, "and it's not about me but we all get this game going and pulling each other's leg."

Asked about why he looked so defeated on the show when his team was down, Gaurav said: "Actually, that's part of our act and I tell you, whatever comes on the show, it's a version." Gaurav also said that, " they improvise quite a bit in addition to the script that is given to them. This helps in giving the show some drama and fits in with the mood of the show."

But that, he said, the expressions were just the prelude to the entertainment: the dancing was real, and real tough. "After all we are here to dance and our focus is on that. Perform well and win the finale. And that's what matters the most to us. We will continue with our dancing and let's pray that we win!."

Shraddha and Karan fume at split rumors

by Meenakshi Shankar

Sep 25, 2008, Mumbai

If a popular news channel is to be believed, Karan Singh Grover and his sweetheart Shraddha have parted ways. Now, it could have been just another relationship biting the dust but there's more.

This pretty couple was a strong contender to take part in Star's popular reality showcase Nach Baliye Season 4, which airs from October 10. We called up with a harried Shraddha to find out the truth. She fumes, "Leave us alone! This is not what one expects from a national news channel. Karan, in fact, is in talks with his lawyer to sue the channel."

Agitated and angry, she questions, "Do the channels realize that they are playing with people's lives? Yes, there is an iota of speculation that Karan and I wouldn't be part of the popular showcase, but it is not because we have decided to part ways. How can a news channel flash images of this magnitude and destroy people's lives? Our family is shocked! Our phones haven't stopped ringing…Speculation is healthy, if there is some of truth in it."

So, why is it that their participation in the show is on shaky ground? She explains, "We want to take part, but the speculations have risen because of our other prior commitments and not because of a reason that a news channel is flashing!"

The actress went to great lengths to explain how all is still well with her and Karan, "Yes, we fight like any other ordinary couple! We fight over what food to eat – Karan is into protein shakes and I keep nagging him to eat healthy fresh food. We are just like any other couple, and we are unlike those who need the constant glare of the media."

What's more, far from the rumors of a split, the couple is thinking of walking down the aisle in the near future. We hope the rumour mongers are reading this!

Who is Jas Karan?
We have heard of entire families being part of Bollywood. And this trend has caught up on the small screen as well. Brothers, sisters, cousins, parent and child can all be found displaying their talent on the small screen. The latest to join the family is Jas Karan. He is hottie Karan Singh Grover's cousin and plays a prominent role in Miley Jab Hum Tum.

Jas Karan always wanted to be an actor. He quips, "Though I wanted to act, I was working with a telecom company as an operation analyst to secure a back- up career. One day, I felt that I should go ahead and chase my dream. So I resigned from my job and started giving auditions. My first show was Naaginn and then I did Meri Doli.... I was unhappy with my roles in both the shows. I took them up as I was told that these are good roles but they did not turn out to be so. In fact, I never wanted to act in saas bahu sagas where male actors are nothing more than a prop. After these shows, I was offered some more family dramas but I kept refusing them. Later, Miley Jab Hum Tum happened and I couldn't have asked for a better show."


Talking about his brother Karan Singh Grover, he says, "We share a great bond. We used to live in the same apartment. But later, Karan ditched me for Shraddha (actress Shraddha Nigam, girlfriend of Karan Singh Grover)! Well, I am just kidding. I also wanted to have a separate house of mine, so I moved out and Shraddha moved in. After watching his show Dill Mill Gayye, I realised that youth oriented shows too have a scope on Indian television. We are close to each other."

Jas is all praise for brother Karan. He says, "Karan is very encouraging. When I was not getting the desired roles he kept encouraging me. He had come to the launch party of my show to encourage me. I had gone to the sets of Zara Nachke… to promote Miley Jab. It felt nice to share screen with him at the promotion of Miley Jab… in Zara…"

Amey stuns all with his act



"It was very challenging performance for me but dancing is in my blood!" said Amey, adding that his success came from hard work. "I did practice a lot," he said, but added that he had a premonition of what was to come: "I had this feeling that I will do it well."

So did his spending a lot of time practicing come at the expense of studies? No, says Amey emphatically. "I have exams coming up so could not pay as much attention to my practice as I would have liked. However I managed to practice in bits and pieces. And it came out well."

Given flying kisses by girls and even the judges, Amey was overwhelmed by the response his act got. "They were completely stunned; and I was riding on cloud nine. It was really special moment of my life," he said, "It was very professional and unexpected from me. But I made it so clear to every one; I am the smallest but one of the smartest "Chota Tej Talwar" from boys' team!"

Asked if he treated this as work or as play, Amey said: "For me it's fun and I enjoy doing this! I don't want to rest. I just want to scamper, so that I can catch up with my dreams. If I rest now I think I will loose the game. So I always think of winning."

So what's his dream? "My dream is to reach on top and to be a renowned actor worldwide. And ZND has set me flying high. I am really enjoying being one of the contestants."

Bhakhtyar Irani cries foul
It's been over a week since the Star One dance reality show, 'Zaara Nachke Dikha', came to its end. But the anger that Bhakhtyar Irani, the leader of 'Tez Talwars', feels over his team's loss has not ebbed with the passing days. The dance reality show was a 'battle of the sexes' and the 'Meethi Chhooris' waltzed away with the crown.

But, we weren't surprised when we saw the boys huffing and puffing over their loss and crying unfair over the whole affair. The best dancer and their team captain, Bhakhtyar was visibly upset and did not mince words when we caught up with him for a tete-a-tete.

There have been allegations that you are not a team player…

It's baseless. How can I not be a team player and yet lead the boys' team near to victory. We reached this stage because we worked as a team. I am a team player and I would challenge anybody to deny that on my face.

So why are you crying foul?

Because the word around the town was that I was better than the best. The girls said I was good, the viewers said I was good…but the judges felt otherwise. How can three people think differently from so many who believe in my skills? I can write it in blood that my solo act was better than Karishma Tanna's, and she maintains the same. Yet, I lost…my team lost because the judges felt otherwise.

Your friction with Saroj Khan is legendary…

When the show was having a format of two judges, how come a third judge cropped up at the last minute? I can't figure out why they had to get a third judge who had a personal vendetta against me. 'Nach Baliye 3' had left a bitter taste in me. Both Tanaz and I were to walk away with the crown, if it wasn't for one particular judge who felt otherwise.

Wasn't it a matter of luck that 'Tez Talwars' lost to 'Meethi Chhooris'?

I read reports, which said Sarojji was so sure that the boys would win, but the girls turned tables. I do agree that our team miscalculated, but then I strongly feel that we deserved to win. I agree that the girls were brilliant dancers and on that particular day, the tables turned, but I don't believe they turned drastically enough to alter the last result. I don't have any hard feelings for the girls. They played with their brains and we played with our hearts. But luck has nothing to do with it. I believe that the judges should have been a little more considerate and not taken sides.

So, the judges are to blame?

What is the point of crying over spilt milk? It's over and done with. The girls have walked away with the crown. But, in our heart, we know that we deserved to win. And I stand by what I feel. I may be arrogant, but that is only because I know that I have performed like none before and we truly gave it our optimum. But our mighty judges felt otherwise. But, yes, I will cry it is an unfair decision.

Saroj Khan has been quite miffed by your attitude.

We have a history together. Yes, we work in an industry and I respect her status in the business. But she crossed the line when she got personal in her comments about my arrogance and my attitude. If she is going to let personal decisions mar her judgment, I rest my case of putting her on the jury's chair.

I still believe the 'Tez Talwars' deserved the crown. Because when we performed, it came straight from our hearts. Beyond a point, it wasn't just another game show. Call it regressive, but we were there to prove a point.

Karan& Shraddha on a romantic trip
Love birds Karan Singh Grover and Shraddha Nigam flew away to Goa to spend some romantic time with each other. The couple brought in Shraddha?s birthday on Oct 1 at the dream destination.

Karan Singh Grover was shooting non-stop for Dill Mill Gayye and Zara Nachke Dikha. Now that the dance reality show Zara Nachke? has ended, he decided to take some time off from work and celebrate Shraddha?s birthday on the silver sands of Goa. Beau Karan ensured that her birthday would be her best till date. Shraddha couldn?t have asked for more.

Shraddha says, ?Karan really needed a break as he has been working so hard. We could just go for a three day trip as Karan had to get back to work. But the trip was awesome. Since we had gone to Goa during the off-season, it was not at all crowded. We switched off cell phones and did not even look at our phones till we returned.?

Who said the couple had split? Here?s wishing them many years of togetherness
