Gurmeet Choudhary has always proved his dedication and professionalism a number of times. One can easily recall his days in Star One’s Geet Hui Sabse Parayi, when the actor despite suffering from illness made it a point to shoot for the daily.

For some of the crucial scenes, he made sure that he was present on the sets. And once again the handsome hunk has come up with same dedication. It is known to all that currently Gurmeet is struggling between his show Punar Vivah on Zee TV and dance reality show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa on Colors.

And to worsen up the matters Gurmeet fell prey to the fluctuating weather of Mumbai, which in turn resulted into a throat infection. However, what we have heard from the sources in town states that he didn’t let the fever take over him and performed his act in JDJ pretty well.

Confirming the same, Gurmeet said, "Yes I was unwell but I think I'm back with this performance. I was suffering from throat infection for the past few days and was feeling weak. We performed this week on a Kerala Dance form which needs lot of energy and we did a mind-blowing act."

Hey amigos, we know you all are extremely jumbled to gaze the handsome guy of small screen, Gurmeet Choudhary, as he will soon take on the stage of Jhalak Dikhla Jaa 5 to be aired on Colors.

Gurmeet has a huge fan following and his ardent fans are eagerly waiting with bated breath to catch their stunning star showing off his dancing skills. As we know about the format of Jhalak, each celebrity contestant is paired along with one seasoned choreographer. Gurmeet has choreographer Shampa Sonthalia as his partner. Shampa was a part of Jhalak’s last season as well wherein she paired opposite Sushant Singh Rajput.

During a candid chat, when sources quizzed Gurmeet about balancing rehearsals, shooting and married life, he said, “Rehearsals are going great. I am blessed with an amazing choreographer and we are trying our level best to deliver.”

Gurmeet further added, “One fine day Debina Bonnerjee joined us on the rehearsals and it was the most disastrous day as two ladies came together and made me dance on their finger tips. Ek taraf debina, ek taraf Shampa and bich mein main akela Champa (exploded laughing).”

He is hopeful that his fans would support him in this new task he has undertaken and will shower him with the same love and appreciation! They’ll indeed do it Gurmeet!

Karan Johar to judge enthusiasm, energy and presentation in JDJ's contestant

Karan Johar to judge enthusiasm, energy and presentation in JDJ's contestant
 Big names inclusive of dancing diva Madhuri Dixit, filmmaker Karan Johar and chorographer Remo D’Souza are tied in to judge the much awaited dance reality show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa. The show is all set to excite its viewers with known celebrities who are going to set the dance floor on fire with their awesome performances.

Now, being a filmmaker, we guess it is going to be a bit difficult for Karan to judge the dancing stars at Jhalak. On being asked the same, Karan said, “Basically there are three things, which I am going to look for in a contestant is his/her enthusiasm, energy and presentation. These three are the ingredients that can boost a contestant's performance.”

“All the 12 contestants have the best dancing potential. I cannot take sides. As a judge, I have to be free of biases. They all are working hard to give their best performance on stage and they are doing so” says Karan when asked who the best contestant among the 12 is.

Karan admires dancing style of Madhuri and considers her as the best dancing diva of Bollywood, and says, “Madhuri Dixit is the best of all. She did her best job in song 'Ek do teen' from the movie Tezaab. Apart from her I love watching Kajol's dance”.

We hope that you’ll completely justify your role as the judge!

She added, “I would love to take part in Nach...as not only it will give us time to spend with each other but more importantly we both love to dance.”

Initially, Nach Baliye was supposed to hit the screens in August (2012) but the latest we have learnt is that it has got postponed and will air only by year end (close to December).

Giaa Manek gets replaced in Saath Nibhana Saathiya

Giaa Manek gets replaced in Saath Nibhana Saathiya
Now this comes as the most shocking news from the world of daily soaps! If believe the latest buzz doing the rounds then the ardent followers of Star Plus’ Saath Nibhana Saathiya will not be able to see their favorite Giaa Manek as the naïve Gopi vahu anymore.

Yes, under quite a shocking development, the producers Rashmi Telefilms have thrown Giaa out of the show and have replaced her with little known Devoleena Bhattacharjee. For the uninitiated, Devoleena was last seen in Imagine TV’s Preeto as Baani.

As per a Star Plus spokesperson, "Starting today, June 7th, one of STAR Plus' longest running shows, Saath Nibhana Saathiya will see a new face essaying the role of Gopi Bahu, the lead protagonists of the show; which has been played by Giaa Manek since its launch. The association with Giaa Manek has however been discontinued with immediate effect, due to unprofessional conduct and breach of contract from the actor's side”.

It is notable that in the past Giaa has been facing slight problems with Star and her show’s production house owing to her participation in Colors’ Jhalak Dikhla Jaa. The actress was even warned not to accept the dance reality show and was even brought before CINTAA. However, later it was heard that all issues were sorted amidst Colors and Star amicably and no one had issues with Giaa taking part in JDJ season 5.

But this sudden news has certainly left all shocked. It is heard that Giaa too wasn’t aware of any such replacement and this stood as news to her as well!

It’s really sad for Giaa and all her fans but guess even the show will have to bear the burns. After all, how can anyone imagine Saathiya and Gopi without Giaa!

Colors’ dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa - Dancing with the stars is gearing up for the mega treat it is going to showcase for its fans.

Buzz states that both Star and Colors are heading towards a silent war.

Star has warned the actors to make their move smartly as while choosing for one they might have to lose out on the other. It has been heard that Hina, who had earlier given her confirmation to Jhalak, has withdrawn her name owing to the pressure from Star Plus.        

Negotiations are still on with Giaa and there are speculations that she might get replaced if she signs Jhalak. Talking about the same, Giaa told the sources, "I'm not bound to any Channel. I'm with a production house and it’s our mutual decision to either say yes or no to the show."
