Is Irrfan Khan's tryst with television over?

Not many know that Kya Kahen, the show hosted by Irrfan Khan on Zoom has ended. It is now airing reruns. So, for this thinking man's actor, television no longer holds any interest. The show is having a repeat telecast of episodes. “My only concern during the show was that we should not mislead the audience in any way, as the theme was supernatural. I am open to more anchoring offers but I don't want to do any soaps as I want to concentrate on films,” says Irrfan.

Irrfan Khan has come a long way from his Banegi Apni Baat days! He is doing films like Deadline opposite Konkona Sen and Yu Hota Toh opposite Ayesha Takia. We wish him all the best. We will wait to see more of him on tv as and when he decides to do television.

What's the Bluff Master doing?

Vinod Sharawat, the garrulous host of Bluff Master on Star One is up to some serious business. With Nach Baliye, coming in the same slot of Bluff Master, Vinod has not been shooting for the show. Instead Vinod has been channeling his energies into feature films. Vinod has two films up his sleeve; shooting for one he claims is going to commence from 15 September and the other one from January 2006. But wait, shhh… all is still secret, so don't go tell anyone!

Ararara...when will Ketaki's woes be over?

Poor Ketaki Dave. Will she be ever to able to shed her Daksha chachi image?
The lady, who has entered the Jassi.... track as Brinda Khatri, rues the fact that the 'Gujju ben' tag follows her wherever she goes. "Even in Jassi, they wanted me to do the same bit," she grimaces, "but I refused." Now, she's being shown as a Gujju married to a Punjabi guy! And there's this typical music track that plays in the background whenever Ketaki enters the frame!
Even in Star Plus' Sonpari, where she appeared for a mere two episodes, they had dandiya music accompanying her entry into each scene.
"I have such a strong grounding in theatre and I would love to do something that Divya Seth is doing in Sarrkkar. But I know such roles may never come to me, despite the fact that before Daksha happened, I had spent all my theatre life doing serious roles!!"
Is anyone listening?

Bhaktiar's dance flair!

Bhakhtiar Irani claims he's the best dancer on the television scene today. "Probably, a Hussain or a Rohit Roy can dance, but I'm pretty sure about how good I am" The Batliwala House no. 43 host used to work with Farah Khan as a choreographer, but claims he was hardly given any opportunity to ascend.
"I'd had enough of staying in the background not being seen enough," he says. So, one day Bhaktiar went to Farah and told her that he couldn't handle it anymore and needed more work. That's when he decided to stop dancing and Batliwala happened.
Hidden talents of Bhakhtiar, huh?

Challenge goes Uncensored!

If you thought you had seen it all on Sa Re Ga Ma Pa's Challenge, here's some more fodder for those still hungry for fights between the celeb judges. Challenge Uncensored, that starts this Sunday on Zee will showcase some hard hitting footage, comprising all that's been shot on the sets of SRGMP and off it. All the controversial fights and the interesting goof ups will be the highlights of the episode, we hear. Getting more real on a reality show, if that's possible!

Kaun Banega Crorepati climbs and how!

Critics of the show notwithstanding, its popularity continues to soar; people continue staying hooked to it. Remember when Harshwardhan Nawathe became India's first 'crorepati,' and people left work early to catch the show! Well, the fever seems to have picked up from where it left with retro bars and lounges in Mumbai pulling up projector screens where they play KBC on weekends! One such hangout, the Classique Club at Lokhandwala screens the show for its patrons. "Technically we have only sports channels playing on our projector at the bar. But as people have started asking for KBC, we play it. Most of our patrons are middle-aged and so they probably lke watching Mr. Bachchan probe the contestants." Way to go, shall we say! .
