Sizzling item number in Colors' Madhubala…Ek Ishq Ek Junoon
There is saying that Hindi television industry replicates big Bollywood trends. And when B-town is going the item number way, how can telly shows stay behind.

The daily soap makers are set to turn on all the Sheilas and Munnis to sway their hips in order to tantalize TV viewers. Tracing the trend, actress Kayamath Khan will rock the dance floor in a classic item number in Saurabh Tewari’s Madhubala – Ek Ishq Ek Junoon to be aired on Colors, starring Vivian Dsena and Drashti Dhami.

Apart from Kayamath, actors Raj Zutshi and Shafugta Ali will also feature in the song. They will dance on the famous Madhuri Dixit track Choli Ke Peechey. The sequence has been shot in Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad and has been choreographed by Pinky Chinoy. Pinky is a well know choreographer who has worked in films like Sarfarosh and Mrityunjay. She is also into production of TV shows and has produced Mangalsutra Ek Maryada on Doordarshan.

Pinky Chinoy revealed the suspense and said, “I took this project simply because the production house was giving me a huge canvas to shoot with some amazing actors. I enjoyed shooting for the song with choreographer friend Rajeev Khinchi (he has choreographed with Farah Khan for seven years).”

Well, with such a promising act now the fans must be all the more eager to discover the whole panorama.

“Yes, we have been informed by the production house that 25 May is our last telecast date,” Dr Amol Kolhe aka Veer Shivaji went on to confirm. It has been reported that Nautanki Telefilms upcoming show on Colors Madhubala – Ek Ishq Ek Junoon will replace Veer Shivaji and it is expected to go on air from 28 May 2012.

Sources contacted actress Drashti Dhami, the female lead of Madhubala, to learn more about her show but she said that she “has no idea about the show’s on air date yet.”All attempts to reach producer Saurabh Tewari of Nautanki Telefilms proved futile.
