“में करन जोहर नहीं हूँ”. Yuvraj Singh tried his hand at comedy on Sony TV

2009-01-09T10:47:00.009+05:30

...on Comedy Circus tomorrow at 9:30 pm

In the first episode of Comedy Circus – Chinchpokli to China, guess who was the celebrity gracing the occasion. Well, it was none other than the most eligible bachelor of the nation…Yuvraj Singh.

Yuvi was accompanied by Ali Asgar for a stand-up performance. Ali played Shah Rukh Khan who has his own talk show and is trying really hard to get Yuvi on his side of the team from Preity Zinta…(remember IPL). But Yuvraj was adamant to remain in Preity’s team. Even the prospect of getting a hug from SRK himself before every match did not get Yuvi to change sides. But it did not end there, Yuvraj went ahead and also said that “mein Karan Johar nahin hoon”.

It was definitely not a first of sorts only for Yuvraj , it was also the first time Ashutosh Kaushik took to stand-up comedy with Shweta Tiwari. It was for the segment Ram Milaye Jodi where famous television celebrities come together for a stand-up act.

A myriad of emotions and situations come together from Balaji Telefilms’ on NDTV Imagine

2009-01-08T15:53:00.011+05:30

... from January 19th 2009

NDTV Imagine will debut two back-to-back new shows from Balaji Telefilms. This exciting new time-band will kick start with ‘Bandini’ at 10:00 p.m. followed by ‘Kitani Mohabbat Hai’ at 10:30 p.m. and will air Monday-Thursday only on NDTV Imagine.

Breaking away from the cult of conventional soaps for the first time ever, Balaji Telefilms presents Bandini, an invigorating tale of a young girl who is forced into a marriage of convenience with an elderly man twice her age. Set in the backdrop of rural India, this narrative vividly traces the journey of Santu and her tryst with destiny.

Love changes people in the most unbelievable way. How far will love take you? Is it strong enough to take up the challenges? Is it deep enough to survive all conflicts? ‘Kitani Mohabbat Hai’ answers these questions in more than one way for Arohi and Arjun, the main protagonists of the show. Two completely opposite individuals, who think and behave differently, come together in this powerful and heart-warming love saga.

I’m very pleased with the line-up of our shows we have created for NDTV Imagine. I am equally excited to be back with a 10:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. time-band, giving viewers a chance to experience once again, one hour of pure entertainment from Balaji Telefilms on prime-time - Ekta Kapoor

Shaadi Se Shuru Hogi Ek Prem Kahani 'YEH RISHTA KYA KEHLATA HAI' premieres 12th Jan

2009-01-07T16:45:00.008+05:30

on Star Plus

Intertwined with Indian culture, tradition, ethics and simplicity, the story resonates with STAR Plus’s ideology of building family values in a society that is witnessing rapid breakdowns in its cultural fabric. Recognizing the increasingly fragile nature of relationships in contemporary India, the show seeks to create a milieu of understanding, communication and love between a couple who were virtually strangers before they tie the knot.

In its own simple way, Yeh Rishta Kya Kya Kehlata Hai seeks to re-establish traditional marital ties to strengthen the fabric of Indian society.

The story revolves around Akshara a shy, demure, obedient daughter who has been brought up like a princess in a traditional Marwari family. She has a very protective upbringing and has only experienced relationships that emanate love and protection. She is yet to discover a life beyond her over-protective mother or her disciplinarian father or her witty and loving grandmother.

It is said, behind every successful man there's a woman. It hasn't been made clear exactly how though. Did she drive him up and over the wall, forcing him to escape to greener pastures?

Please welcome the legally wedded better halves of India's top men. The wives who sustain, inspire and of course benefit from, the exalted status and heady success of their super-achiever husbands.

The conversation is conducted by glam world insiders and star designers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla.

Gauri Khan, Nita Ambani, Suzanne Roshan and ten others sit, talk, joke, laugh and be themselves on this all new show.
