naa bole na tum ne kaha losing trp on colors

na a bole na tum ne kaha losing trp on colors tv
Sunshine Productions’ Na Bole Tum Na Maine Kuch Kaha's Mohan (Kunal Karan Kapoor) and Megha (Akanksha Singh) who are posing as a couple in front of Mohan's ex-girlfriend Rashmi (Pooja Kanwal) and Gautam’s (Karan Suchak) are currently in Gautam's farm house as Rashmi invited them for a holiday. And now the audiences of this Colors' show will see a lot of drama.
Megha lied to Papaji (Anjan Srivastav) that she along with Jiji (Madhuri Sanjeev) and the kids are going for a picnic and will be back in the evening. But then Jiji had left for shopping with Rashmi’s mother (Shilpa Mehta) while the rest were still at the farmhouse. In fact, Jiji had also reached home soon after but Megha couldn’t make it back with her kids due to a fallen tree blocking their way.
And now in the Maha episode that will air this Sunday (22 April 2012) one will get to see a lot of lies being told to Papaji just to save Megha.
As per a reliable source , Papaji will question Jiji about a male being with Megha, as he heard over the phone call; however, Jiji will cover saying that it’s the voice of a parent. However, things will turn a bit ugly. Mohan and Megha will come back in an auto in the morning and Papaji and Saroj (Madhuri Bandiwadekar) will see them together.
They will question Megha about the same and Jiji will save Megha with her impromptu answers. Telly spoke to Madhuri Sanjeev (Jiji) about the same and she said, “The audience will get to see some dramatic as well as funny moments on the show and this will all happen because of the lies told by Megha and Jiji to help Mohan.”

Ankita Lokhande enters into a tiff with the director of YMGGK

If someone says that an actor had a fight on the sets, and later if everyone denies of such a happening, that doesn’t really mean that a tiff never really happened. So what are we trying to exactly imply? Well, just relax, grab a bucket of popcorn and read. Telly wrote the news about the drama-injected crossover episode between Balaji Telefilms’ Pavitra Rishta and Rajshri Productions’ Yahaan Main Ghar Ghar Kheli (YMGGK). Both the shows air on Zee TV. The episode was indeed well scripted, but here’s some spicy “off screen” news.
We have learned that Ankita Lokhande aka Archana of Pavitra Rishta, entered into a tiff with the director of YMGGK, Amit Gupta. A source informed that the actor and the director had creative differences, which led to an argument and the director resorted to shouting at Ankita. Ankita too was left fuming and even threatened to quit shooting and leave the sets. But later she was calmed down by some production people from Balaji Telefilms.
Telly got in touch with Ankita, and asked her about the incident. This is what she had to say, “I was working with Rajshri Productions, not Balaji, and they have a different style of functioning. So when you visit a new set, it takes time to adjust. I was not really convinced as an actor with the way the director told me to enact the scenes. So it was not really an argument but just a misunderstanding. These things happen in the industry.”
Well, Ankita, we know it’s not your fault but the ever-rising temperatures in Mumbai. Time to have some nimboo paani, we guess (wink, wink)

dhanush and rakhi sawant
Controversy queen Rakhi Sawant, who is said to be upset with southern star Dhanush for cancelling a performance with her at the last minute, says the singer-actor must have felt threatened by her.
"Actually he thinks that he can't dance and he thought that I will overshadow him. That's why he did this, but I love his song," the 33-year-old said on the sidelines of an event here.
Rakhi is said to have been angry with Dhanush for cancelling a performance where he was supposed to perform with Rakhi on "Kolaveri di".
However, Rakhi has now forgiven Dhanush, whose hit bi-lingual song has crossed over 50 million hits on YouTube. She now hopes to work with him in future.
"I love Dhanush and Rajinikanth. I don't want to comment on him because I really liked his song. Whatever he did to me, it's okay. I have forgiven him," said Rakhi.
"He even called me later and said that he didn't have time, so he couldn't make it. ... Maybe it's because his film was also going to release, but he said that next time he will do it," she added.
Rakhi was last seen in an item number in the film "Loot". Her TV show "Gajab Desh Ki Ajab Kahaaniyaan" kept her busy in 2011, and she also made an appearance on the finale of "Bigg Boss 5".

Can Indian Television shows go the American TV Series way?


Can Indian Television shows go the American TV Series way?

Any fan who ardently follows a television soap on any GEC's , after a few episodes complains of a stagnant storyline. Story travels along a moebius strip with starting and ending points being the same. TRPs travel a wave riding high on crests and touching nadir on troughs.

It is not just the storyline that suffer from the frequency of number of episode telecast ed a week , but also the stars who are in the show as protagonists. With most shows airing five times a week and a life span of a year and a half , it is hard to not to empathize with the stars. They put in close to 14 hours a day and get only a day or two in a month to recuperate.

Barun sobtiBarun Sobti who plays 'Arnav Singh Raizada' on Star Plus 'Iss Pyar ko Kya Naam Doon' stresses on the work pressure the stars are under "Indian Television needs to make a move on and with so many cases of ill health in the industry it is certain that such work pressures are difficult to take for a very a long time. I really hope it eases out soon"

Excessive working hours leaves them looking haggard and it is quite palpable on the shows. The lines around their eyes are thicker and puffiness doesn't belie the rest they so deserve. If you thought that only the stars are in the firing line , think again and spare a thought for all the creative visualizers. It is their responsibility to come up with a script and factor in all the variables that directly or indirectly affect the show.

The key question to be answered is - What can be done to make sure that story packs in a punch and leaves our favorite stars less fatigued?

We have aped the West on many fronts and aping them in their television format might not be a bad thing. All their serials follow a format of division of episodes and a certain number of episodes (preferably 22) are clubbed in to a season. On completion of a season , entire cast and crew takes a well deserved break and then regroups for a more zesty season two.

Kunal Karan kapoorKunal Karan Kapoor who plays Mohan on Colors 'Na Bole Tum Na Maine Kuch Kaha' feels that as an actor season wide division of episodes would be a boon - "As an actor I would love it. It would be more creative and interesting. But at the end of the day the decision rests with the channels as take a call on TRPs. So, we need a channel that has full faith it and goes all out to take the risk".

American television series like Lost, Castle, Supernatural enjoy popularity not only in the US but also across the world including India. Indian Serials run for close to 350 episodes and a season of 100 episodes might not be a bad idea. Reality shows in India like Bigg Boss, Dance India Dance have successfully replicated the model - Does that mean there is hope for serials on GEC's?

Palki Malhotra, Creative Director of Channel V's 'Dil Dostii Dance' feels that Indian audience is very different to their western counterparts -" Indians are more emotionally involved. So if we were have let's say three episodes in a week , they will feel the void. India churns out so many serials and there is always a danger of losing out on your audience , if you take a break between seasons. This concept might work for some thriller series or reality shows , but for shows on GEC's it is fraught with peril"

It is now time for Indian audiences to decide and prioritize - A show with mediocre storyline and high frequency or a show which guarantees concrete storyline with lesser frequency?

Nicole Alvares approached for Jhalak Dikhla Jaa season 5 on colors

Jhalak Dikhla Jaa, the most popular dance show of Indian Television is all set to shake the dancing chords of the audience once again. Big buzz is that the rocking dance show is graduating to a new season and this time it will be aired on Colors instead of Sony TV.

For season five of the show, producers are looking for different names and the latest news making its way is that they have approached Nicole Alvares as a choreographer. It is notable that Nicole formed a smoking hot dancing pair with Karan Singh Grover in season 3 of JDJ and their stunning performance set the sparks fly. Being impressed with her, the producers have decided to rope in her again as a choreographer for current season.

On being quizzed, Nicole added, “I have been associated with Jhalak for the past 3 season and I have been approached this year as well, but I haven't yet decided whether to take it up. I am already tied up with many things, but let see how things shape up."

We had earlier informed you that like the last season, this time too we will see dancing diva Madhuri Dixit reprising her role as a judge along with Remo D’Souza and if all go well evergreen beauty Rekha too will be joining them on board.

Let’s see if Nicole gives her nod for this season too!
