Charit, the Rajasthan lad, is the tenth Indian Idol

Charit, the Rajasthan lad, is the tenth Indian Idol
Everyone was holding their breaths when the decision was made between Charit and Kritika on the sets of Indian Idol season 6. After finalizing the top 9 participants in Indian Idol, it was turn to cross swords for Charit and Kritika on the sets of Indian Idol.

Both participants had heavy votes and liking from fans and were put under the scanner as one of them was to be eliminated. Charit hails from Rajasthan and is a student of Pharmacy.

When both were about to be put under grindstone, Charit spoke, “I have done my course in Pharmacy. So if I get eliminated, I will go back and join a Pharmaceutical company as a scientist and of course singing will always be there with me.”

This time Indian Idol has taken a different turn when it comes to deciding the fate of contestants as half of the decision would depend on judges’ votes.

The final 9 contestants are Devendra Pal Singh, Poorvi Koutish, Vipul Mehta, Ritika Raj, Sohini Mishra, Amitabh Narayan, Kaushik Deshpande, Deeksha Piyush and Amit Kumar.

Breaths are still high and hearts are beating fast. We are yet to see the 6th Indian Idol of this season.

Eva Grover quits Bade Acche Lagte Hain post leap

Eva Grover quits Bade Acche Lagte Hain post leap
Nowadays in Tellyworld everyone is busy discussing the leap that is soon to take place in Sony TV’s Bade Acche Lagte Hain. And the latest buzz making way says that Eva Grover aka Niharika will not be in the show post the leap.

The veteran actor, who plays Ram’s (Ram Kapoor) stepmother Niharika, has decided to quit the show. As per sources the reason behind her decision to leave the show is because she doesn’t want to play grandmother!

While that’s the official version, we wonder how true it is. As the show is said to be taking only five years leap and that doesn’t make her too much older, does it? We’ve heard of actors quitting shows when the storyline takes a twenty year leap, and they don’t want to play older characters. But this is the first time we’ve heard of someone who is quitting after such a short leap.

Eva, it seems, doesn’t agree and is sure that she doesn’t want to carry the grandmother tag, even if her grandchild is going to be only five years old. We understand. It’s tough to get rid of the tag once you are labeled with it. Now we wonder will you watch the show without Niharika!

Manyata has finally agreed to let herself get over the past and lead a peaceful life ahead. But her happiness and peace won’t last for long. As the viewers must have already seen, Jaynandini is aware of the truth that Akash or Aryan as he calls himself is alive. However, she is not able to reveal the same thing before Manyata.

But the truth will get before Manyata when she will bump into Akash in a mall. She will find him with his girlfriend Tara. This will leave Manyata in a deep shock and once again her life will turn upside down. 

Udayveer will also be shocked and angry to see Aryan. On being quizzed about the coming track, Abhishek Rawat aka Akash said, 'Yes, Manyata and Aryan will come face to face but I can not disclose the reaction. You will have to wait and watch."

As you say Abhishek but we just hope that this turns out something really worth a watch!

Ashish Sharma justifies quitting Chandragupta Maurya

Ashish Sharma justifies quitting Chandragupta Maurya
With Imagine TV shutting down unexpectedly, many of its shows also met the same end. But luckily, Chandragupta Maurya, which created a lot of buzz since it went off air, has managed to find a new channel ready to air it.

As we had last updated you, Sony TV has brought the rights of the show and is all willing to air the historical saga. But buzz even states that show’s lead, Ashish Sharma aka Chandragupta Maurya, won’t be a part of it as he has moved on with Jay Mehta's next on Zee TV.

While one was finding Jay Mehta’s show as the reason behind Ashish’s absence from Maurya, the actor refuted saying that his contract with the makers (Sagar Arts and 72 Degree Northe) would have come to an end. He added, "If the show would have continued, I would have hoped that it ended by my contract period so that I could chase my dream of producing short films”.

Ashish even said, "It was unfortunate that the show shut down. We were all working towards the part where Chandragupta would become the king. I am not sure if the show will come on another channel or not. Even if it does, it will not start before July and by then my contract would be over. I can’t continue for I have my above commitments which will get delayed by a year and a half and that is something which I can’t afford. I agree professional decisions are harsh to take but yet you need to go ahead with them”.

Well, we hope you create magic with the new show Ashish!

This will leave Rajmata shell-shocked and she will eventually fall into a coma. But the evil Giriraj will target Manyata and Jay's (Shritama Mukherjee) father (Shahbaz Khan) next.
