Sameer Soni to host Swayamwar-3, Ratan Ka Rishta?



Ratan Rajput is all set to choose his would-be hubby. This year Ram Kapoor is not hosting swayamwar, he is replaced by Sameer Soni, because Ram is busy in Agent Vinod.

After Bigg Boss, Sameer Soni got an opportunity to show his calibre as a host in NDTV Imagine’s  Ratan Ka Rishta, Swayamvar season three. Sameer Soni will help in groom-hunt for lovable Laali aka Ratan Rajput.

I tried getting to contact Kamna Menezes one of the producer of Swayamwars, but she remained unavailable for comment.

When I called Sameer, he neither confirmed nor denied. “Yes channel approached me for Swayamwar-3 but nothing is finalised right now.”

I am a Loner : Sameer Soni

From the day first till his elimination, Sameer Soni have maintained the dignity in the Bigg Boss house. He gained lots of public sympathy while he was in Bigg Boss. He is all set to tie a knot with Actress-turned-jewellery designer Neelam Kothari on Jan 23, 2011.



I caught up with Sameer Soni for an interview after Big Boss, he gives witty answers for Rapid Fire :

One thing you always do when you get up in the morning?
Brush my teeth.

You are scared of?
Lizards

Not scared of Dolly Bindra?
(smiles) No, Dolly is not bad in person.

Name a thing you miss being in Bigg Boss?
The weather

One word to describe Neelam?
Super woman.

If you want to ask one question to Bigg Boss, what would that be?
Why you eliminated me(smiles)

If given an opportunity to do a reality show Pati, Patni Aur Woh-2 with Neelam, would you say yes?
I don't know the format of Pati, Patni aur Woh, I believe private life should be kept private.

So you are not looking for any realty show.
I am, but not as a couple.

One thing you learn after you were in Bigg Boss?
Appreciation

What would you do if you are stuck in an elevator with Veena Malik?
Listen to her talk, talk and talk.

Bigg Boss is scripted. Yes or No?
No

Why?
I was not briefed on anything before I entered the house.

You missed out an opportunity to spend time with Pamela Anderson.
I didn't have any major attraction for Pamela.

When your opening your account on social networking site?
I am not computer savvy, I will keep in touch to my fans by people like you.

What is the first thing that strike your mind when Salman said "Sameer aapke paas 5 min hai”?
I was mentally prepared, but I was thinking Salman must be joking.

If you get one crore rupees and you are asked to spend it on Dolly Bindra, how will you do it?
She doesn't have any children of her own, I would like to donate this money to facilitate the underprivileged children with the help of Dolly.

Name one Bigg Boss inmate that you desperately want to beat up?
No one.

One secret that people don't know about you? Trust me, I will publish it.
I am extremely shy.

That we know, anything else.
(smiles) I am a loner

If denims disappeared for a day, what do you think can best replace them?
Leaves(laughs)

Nehaa Mehta cleared the air about her relationship status!..

It's been an eventful 2010 for Nehaa Mehta, but the year 2011 started with the rumours about her relationship status.


Nehaa was last seen on television as Godess Parvati in Balaji’s Mythical disaster ‘Kahani Hamare Mahabharat Ki’.  The talented actor also did a Bengali movie ‘Shiva -the Mystery’, which is released last year, and another women centric Bengali movie ‘Krantiveer’ will hit the silver screen in March, 2011.

The actress still has her relation status as single on a social networking site. But if rumours are to believed she is dating one of his ‘Kahani Hamare Mahabharat Ki’ co-star, and is going to get engaged soon.

I called her to find her relation status and about that lucky guy she's traded her single status for. She cleared the air about her relationship status, “I am still Single & not dating any of my co-actros or anyone. The worst part about this industry is that people who have 20 affairs are one. And who have one affair are shown 20 affairs. I really wish I had all those affairs, because all of them are talented & hot men. But the fact is that I haven't had any such relationships”.

When I asked her, don’t you think you are very young to be single? “Yeah, I know. This is not my age to be single. I go with flow of life where life take & wait for my dream men to get enter in my life. To be honest, I want that to happen at its own pace. Though I am surrounded by so many hottest sexy men my co-actors, I am still single. Maybe it is not meant to be now, maybe God wants me to concentrate on my work and then maybe more sexy & hot men will fall for me”, she quips with a smile.

She requested, to all those concerned in spreading this rumours, not to waste their valuable time like this.

I am person who lives in the moment: Dil Khush

YRF is coming back with a new Serial Khotey Sikkey which will soon hit screen.  After Mark Parakh, I caught up with another Khota Sikka 'Dil Khush', to know more about her character and look in the her upcoming show.


Excerpts from the interview:


You disappeared after Kasam Se, how did you bag the role in Khotey Sikkey?
Kasamh Se was by itself a very good experience considering it was my first venture on Television, after having modelled for a while. But post Kasamh Se wanted to give it a break for sometime because since the very start being job satisfied meant a lot to me and so chose not to pick up anything and everything dat came my way. For sometime anchored on E24 as their prime time anchor to try a new type of tv experience.

At YRF someone from the casting department had asked me to send my work profile and post that asked me to come for a look test, thats when I auditioned with them for two shows and then finally decision was that I should do Khotey Sikkey.When YRF offered me to play Dilnaz. I agreed.

This is your first show as the main lead, how do you feel?
Its definately feels great and its also a great responsibility. TV is a very big medium and youth today are very impressionable and look up to character and actors. So its important and extremely exciting.

Dilnaz is totally into drugs, how did you prepare for this role?
No thats not true Dilnaz is not totally into drugs, she has a drug past. Dilnaz is basically anventurous in nature, she loves thrill and is extremely daring and is crazy about Weapons, not only keeping them but using them too.

What is your personal opinion about the character of Dilnaz.. Name one thing you liked and disliked about Dilnaz.
Dilnaz is a very interesting character. She is the youngest of the lot but fears nothing, is extremely adventures and is the first to go head-long in a daring situation without thinking about its eventuality. She is basically a happy kid who loves to do things that are adventurous, and is extremely upbeat in any given situation.

What I like the most about Dilnaz is her desire to seek fun and adventure in life at all times. Lives in the moment and always seeks excitement.

And what probably I cud dislike is that,she does'nt realise that sometimes her actions could get her in deep trouble. She is a bit naive.

How different is the experience working for Balaji Telefilms and Yashraj?
Kasamh Se with Balaji Telefilms was a daily soap and Khotey Sikkey is a bi-weekly. Both experiences are good in their own respect and choose not to compare its working because for me I am expremely happy with both my projects.

Do you think that the TV industry too has become a part of the rat race and it’s all about survival of the fittest?
Yes that may be true but I think it defers from person to person. Personally I don't believe in chasing or being part of the race. For me putting in my 100% on every project is important and rest is left to God and our dear viewers.

How is your rapport with the other cast of the show?
The rapport on our set is extremely fantastic. the best part about our cast is that we spend all our time on set shooting and spending good time. but whats unusally beautiful is the bond we share as friends off set, we actually meet up on off days too and look forward to spending more and more quality time together.

What are the qualities you want in your dream man?
Thats a very nice question though but I don't have a list a qualities about my dream man. For now its only Khotey Sikkey that takes my time and attention because to me it feels like a dream project(smiles).

Every actor has a dream role, What is your’s?
I am person who lives in the moment and for me what is important is to play every role with equal amount of passion for the craft. so that some day that could be someone else's dream role.

Each character is distinctive in Khotey Sikkey : Mark Parakh

As reported earlier, YRF is coming back with a new Serial Khotey Sikkey which will hit screen on 21st January. I caught up with one of the Khota Sikka Mark Parakh, he has drawn a lot of appreciation for his character Sid in Mahhi Way.

Excerpts from his interview:

Do you have any formal training in acting?
Yes, I am a student of Anupam Kher's Actor Prepares. I did my full time (3 months) course from there. I am very grateful to the faculty- Mr. Yashraj Jadhav, Mr. Hemendra Bhatia, Mr. Suraj Vyas and ofcourse Mr. Kher.

What is the USP of Khotey Sikkey?
USP of Khotey Sikkey is that each character is distinctive and does not overlap each other’s space. We bond equally well off screen, in fact better I would say. Although we see each other practically every day on set, we are still not bored of each other. In fact, whenever we get an off, we are always together partying and this bond shoes on screen. So I would say this is the USP of Khotey Sikkey.

How would you describe Ayush’s character?
Ayush Khetrapal is a gadget freak, there is no code he can't crack, no web site or password he can't hack, Very confident when it comes to his gadgets but a little under confident otherwise, gets fidgety when in trouble and has a restless body language.

Any kind of grooming for the role, I mean have you read about hacking and all?
No grooming as such, but I know some people who are like that so I have incorporated a few traits such as speaking fast when it comes to the 'techy' stuff and a little laid back and lazy at other times.

How did Mahhi Way come to you?
Minal, the talent manager for Anupam Kher's ‘Actor Prepares’,  saw my final performance at the end of my course and she really liked it. She recommended me to Abhimanyu Ray, the then casting director for Yashraj. I auditioned and they loved my audition. In fact Abhimanyu went down to Actor prepares (since the YRF casting dept. Is in the same building) and showed them my audition saying they had sent one of their best actors from the lot.

You portrayed the role of gay fashion designer Sid in Mahhi Way. You were not afraid of the image that will get registered in people’s mind?
After the audition I knew I would get the part but I was a bit skeptical since I didn't want to start off my career playing a gay character as I was scared of being typecast but then I thought I would be a fool to reject an offer from YRF. My acting teacher Yashraj sir told me that an actor's job is to essay whatever role he's given and that it would be wrong to shy away from not playing such a character. I went for it and today I don't regret it at all.. I am really glad I made the correct decision.

Ashmit volunteers for elimination!..




Day 94 starts with housemates waking up on an all time hit number 'satte pe satta'.

Bigg Boss sends the task letter announcing their songs of the day on which they have to perform whenever the music is played. Ashmit reads out the letter to the housemates. New props and costumes are given to the housemates for their performances. The group song for the contestants is 'Dugi pe Dugi Ho', Khali's song for the day is 'Chouta Bacha Jane ke humko'. Dressed in a clown's outfit Shweta's song is 'Hai Hai Mirchi'. Ashmit had to shake a leg on 'jab bhi koi ladki dekho mera dil deewana bole'.

After the announcement of the task Dolly bitches about Khali to Ashmit. Dolly is angry on Khali since he had a fight with her last night. Dolly starts commenting about his character on how he talks about everyone to her, Dolly also tells Ashmit if Khali comes and touches, she will show him who is the real 'Khali'. Soon everyone gathers in the garden area to discuss who should go out of the Bigg Boss House, Shweta and Khali take Dolly's name. Dolly is surprised with Shweta's decision and in return nominates Shweta. According to Dolly, because of Shweta she had a fight with everyone since she would manipulate her. To which Shweta defends herself saying they were all here from the beginning while Dolly entered mid-way. Ashmit chooses to nominated himself.

Bigg Boss tries to give the housemates a little surprise by sending a red suitcase, making them feel that someone might enter, but soon Ashmit opens the bag and to find it empty and everyone laughs. Soon the discussion on elimination starts again, Dolly is angry on Shweta and Khali. Dolly gets in to a verbal fight with Shweta and soon Shweta walks out from the scene.

Khali talks about voluntarily walking out of the house, but remembers his past and all the struggles he went through to reach here and decides to stay back and fight till the end. Khali gets emotional, but Dolly taunts him by saying how one should win on their own and not based on sympathy. Shweta and Khali talk about Dolly and how she is trying to fight and they should avoid her for now.

Bigg Boss announces that any one member from the house can get a chance to speak to his/her family, therefore housemates can decide on one name they would like to nominate for this opportunity. Dolly does not respond but Shweta and Ashmit decide to give this opportunity to Khali. Bigg Boss connects Khali to his wife and gets to chat with her for 2 mins. He is very happy with this opportunity and thanks Ashmit, Shweta and Bigg Boss.

Now it was time to give that one name to Bigg Boss as to who they would like to eliminate. Ashmit volunteers and everyone seems all right with his decision except Shweta, who bursts in tears with the decision.

Do you really want to see Veena ki Jawani?


Seducing lady Veena Malik will un-grace the Bigg Boss platform again, she probably will perform on popular item number ‘Sheila Ke Jawani’ of Tees Maar Khan in the grand finale. The arrangements for the same have been finalized. Colors TV thinks the shameless aunty Veena Malik is well suited to perform on the song. I guess they forgot Katrina Kaif performed on that song.

Veena was evicted after being nominated seven times, I am surprised, do she actually has a large fan following. Her manager Sohail Rashid  said “She had been offering prayers in the house but nobody mentioned it. She discussed politics with her fellow contestants but few people ignored that and propagated her statements in a twisted way. The things that contestants did at the show were part of the game and the show must be taken as a game”.

Ok dude agree with you but she was also found in compromising position with her SEX-INTREST ASS-mit. Yes you read it right her SEX-INTREST, her facial expressions while giving massage and all shows she's only interested in sex. If sources are to be believed she even dropped towel in front of camera.

“She had been promoting the Urdu language at the house of ‘Bigg Boss’. A lot of people are using Urdu words in India just because of her. She promoted our language and did nothing wrong,” Malik’s manager said defending the actor.

Mr.Malik she was not promoting Urdu, she was promoting vulgarity in the show. I agree Dolly was loud and abusive lady, but she is far better than Veena. And for your information Mr.Rashid Urdu has been widely in use in India even before the lady named Veena Malik exist in this earth.

We neither want Veena nor her Jawani..!

Lyrics and English Translation of Shiv Kumar Batalavi’s 'Maye Ni Maye Mere Geetan De Nainan Vich'


R
ecently I heard, 'Maye ni maye mere geetan de nainan vich, birhan di radak pawe' which was written by the great Punjabi poet Shiv Kumar Batalvi. This song has been sung by countless singers, including one of my favorites Jagjit Singh, Surinder Kaur, Hasraj Hans, but Nusrat Saheeb's (Nusrat Fateh Ali) interpretation is outstanding. It's divine, because I believe he sang it from the depths of his soul. To be honest, I was moved to tears by this song.
