THEY are hep and happening. Queens of the soap and role models to millions of young girls. Over the past more than a year, the small picture tube has been virtually invaded by a new set of young ladies who are setting new fashion styles and social trends.
- These young new divas have not just elbowed out the well-known ones but have made them look like the generation past. Much of the credit must go to, who else? Ekta Kapoor, who has introduced a slew of new ladies who have cast a spell on the Indian audience. Stars who were nobodies till a year or so ago but are top of the pops today.
- The good wife is always in a designer saree, complete with sindoor and mangalsutra. But the fiance can wear jeans and a sleeveless or noodles top. At least that is what the small screen seems to be preaching.
1.Shweta Tiwari
She is leading the band is who has attained heady stardom with her role in Kasautii Zindagi Kay. I would say she is bold, good looking ,tall and has immense screen presence. She can dance well and act too and her dialogue deliverance is quite spontaneous. She has all qualities for the leading heroine in Hindi films.
2. Prachi Desai
If purity needed a synonym in today’s Indian television industry, Prachi Desai would be the top challenger. The 17-year-old actress did wonders with her portrayal of Bani in Kasamh Se and is the undisputed number one actress of 2007. Not only did she elevate the character to a new level, but she also became one of the most popular faces in the industry. Desai is Ekta Kapoor’s latest blue-eyed-girl and there is a lot more expected from her in the years to come.
3. Divyanaga
She is a beauty, pretty and lovely in herself, although I am not watching any of her serials but in between when IÂ see her in Saas Bahu aur Sajish, I have become a fan of her. Recently she won best actress award. She embodies innocence in her looks.
4.Pravina
I dont know her off screen name, but she does a fabulous job in Baa Bahu aur Baby. Rcently her character has been killed in the serial, hope she will get resurrection soon. She is witty and her screen presence is immense and colossal.
5.Lubna
She is the Hema Malini look alike of Baa Bahu aur baby. Somehow even when she does overacting, it is not irritating and the way she portrays the character as the eldest bahu she is marvellous.
6.Richa Gujarati
She used to be the bahu of Babhi, recently has character has been given to somebody else. I always used to feel this girl has immense potential, and that has been materialised, it is learnt that she has signed a film with Abjieet Sawant, the Indian Idol. She performs has role quite candidly.
7.Panchi Vohra
She became a bahu very recently in kayamat, but from the very beginning, I had predicted that she will be the Rani Mukherjee of TV and that has really happened. She is sober, beautiful and with no ommps. Very simple and very innocent.
8.Pallavi
This dark girl fares well in Karam Apna Apna. She fully justifies with her role as a daughter from a lower middle class family , but now a bahu of a very rich family.
9.Sangeeta Ghosh
This lady has vivacious screen presence and recently we saw her in Des Mein Nikla Hoga Chand which won her a instant fame.
10.Kavita Nagpal
She plays Rakesh Bedis wife in Office Office. Although she is very plump and old enough for the role she play, but still I like the way she enacts her role. She is simply superb.
Readers now you give your choice of bahus in the TV and let us see which bahu wins the most of the vote.

Kangana Ranaut to shed her blouse
1. Kangana Ranaut is shedding her blouse in the upcoming movie’Fashion’. Earlier it was decided that a body double would do the sequence, but later Kangana herself decided to give the shot. The shot would resemble the ramp walk sequence of the Lakme Fashion show, in which model Carol Gracious dropped her blouse during the ramp walk and termed it as ‘wardrobe malfunction’. In this present film, Kangana is playing the role of a supermodel.
1. King Khan will shake his legs along with the top ten bahus of television in an event of Balaji Telefilms ‘Global Award Function’ in Mumbai. He is thrilled to do dance with the super beautiful bahus of small tube. The tune of the song will be Chake De India, but the wordings will be different. Ganesh Hegde is the choreographer of the dance show.
2. Deepika Podukone has started keeping a distance from her mentor Farah Khan. According to Farah Khan, when success reins someone, often this type of arrogance is inevitable to some people.But deepika should keep in mind that she got overnight stardom because of the film OSO and she should never forget her first tutor and mentor.
3. Akshey Khanna recently purchased a Reva car, because it has zero fuel emission. He wanted to be just eco-friendly.
5. Ashutosh Gowrikar’s ‘Jodha Akbar’ would be facing immense crisis from historians and critics, because according to them, Jodha was Akbar’s daughter in law not wife. Well, in that case the film will be in doldrums even before it release and AG will have to face the music.
6. Saif Ali Khan would anything for his ladylove. Recently he slashed his palm to prove that he will do anything for Kareena.
7. According to the latest research of Denmark Scientists, film stars Aishwarya Rai and Anjolina are related to each other from their forefathers side, that’s why they both have blue eyes. Researchers allege that people with the particular colour of blue in their eyes belong to one family of ancestors.
8. Fardeen Khan has been awarded drug detoxification programme by the Mumbai Police. Earlier in the year 2001, he was arrested red-handed when he was caught buying cocaine in Juhu.
9. King Khan will be seen in small tube very soon as he will be conducting the KBC new series in no matter of time.
10. Emraan Hashmi’s newly married life is on the rocks as he is dating a Pakistani actress Sana. They became very friendly during the shooting their film Jannat in Capetown. His wife is now contemplating whether she should leave Emraan or just give him another chance.

U.S. Investigators has discovered that people who consume a lot of red meat and processed meats have a higher danger of numerous types of cancer, including lung cancer and colorectal cancer.
The work is the first big study to show a link between meat and lung cancer. It also establishes that people who eat a lot of meat have a higher risk of liver and esophageal cancer and that men raise their risk of pancreatic cancer by eating red meat.
“A decrease in the consumption of red and processed meat could reduce the incidence of cancer at multiple sites,” Dr. Amanda Cross and colleagues at the U.S. National Cancer Institute wrote in their report.
The researchers studied 500,000 people aged 50 to 71 who participated in a diet and wellness study done in conjunction with the AARP, formerly the American Association for Retired Persons.
After eight years, 53,396 cases of cancer were diagnosed.
“Statistically significant elevated risks (ranging from 20 percent to 60 percent) were evident for esophageal, colorectal, liver, and lung cancer, comparing individuals in the highest with those in the lowest quintile of red meat intake,” the researchers wrote.
The people in the top 20 percent of eating treated meat had a 20 percent higher risk of colorectal cancer — mostly rectal cancer — and a 16 percent higher risk for lung cancer.
“Furthermore, red meat intake was associated with an elevated risk for cancers of the oesophagus and liver,” the researchers wrote.
These differences held even when smoking was accounted for.
Meats can cause cancer by numerous routes, the researchers observed. “For example, they are both sources of saturated fat and iron, which have independently been associated with carcinogenesis,” the researchers wrote.

On Thursday, 5th December,2007, Micca Singh , the Punjabji hip-hop singer was live on Radio FM 101.6, Dubai. The FM phone line was full with callers to chat with him and to listen to songs live from him. He was in the company of spin Dr. Abhijeet , RJ of 101.6.
Khoya Khoya Chand heroine Soha Ali Khan will be seen with her actress mother Sharmila Tagore(Chairperson- Film Division of India) in the coming episode of Jhalak Dikhla Jaa, in Sony TV. The theme of the episode will be 1950-60 style, hence the dance, style, fashion and romance of that era will be displayed by the contestants. By next week the 2 eligible jodis to the final round will be announced.
Prachi Desai will be performing a sensuous performance of cabaret in Jhalak Dikhla Jaa . She is in cloud nine these days as she got the ticket to Bollywood. She will be acting opposite Farhan Akthar, Javed Akthar’s son in film, the shooting of which is commencing very soon.
On Friday 7th December,2007, in Nach Baliye-3 Star Plus, we can see all the contestants in kids theme. They will dance like kids and hence they can be seen in baba dress. Even the host and the hostess will be seen in school uniforms. The final battle for the crown and car will be held on 22nd December,2007.
Ever imagined, who will be the host for the Amul Star Voice of India, Chotte Ustad, it is none other than Abhaas who was the third finalist for the Amul SVOI. Abhas does not possess the right spirit for anchoring the show, he will look like a comic strip on stage, he does not have the body language , nor powerful screen presence. It is wondered as to why he was offered the post when there were so many other able and eligible contestants in the earlier show, or was Gajendra Singh, the maker of the show Amul Star Voice of India, was under pressure to retain Abhaas!

- · The long running Star Plus serial Kasautti Zindagii Ki will come to an end in January 2008.
- · The show first ran into trouble when one of it’s lead stars Cezanne Khan quit. Moon, Geetanjali, and Urvashi followed and hence the show started losing viewers. Shewta Tiwari too also seemed to have lost interest in the show. She started taking up other assignments thus ignoring ‘KZK’.
- · Kasautti Zindagii Ki is on air for more than 5 years.
- The chemistry between Anurag and Prerna wooed the audience while the contender Komolika’s style became the talk of the town. Getting caught between Anurag and Mr. Bajaj, Prerna became the house hold name as she struggled to win all the kasautii in her life.
- After taking leap after leap, Kasautii Zindagi Kii, is now coming to an end.
- · January 14th episode will be the last show of the serial.
- The news has been confirmed by the GM and EVP (Star Plus) Keertan Adyanthaya who said “Yes, sometimes good things come to an end, but on Star Plus, they get better, we are going to come up with some great new programs, so keep watching this spaceâ€.
- Ronit Roy, who acquired recognition with the massively admired role of Mr. Bajaj said, “A great path breaking, life altering chapter of my life is coming to an end. But i guess all good things must also eventually come to and end. There is a certain amount of sadness that it is coming to an end, a certain amount of pride that I saw it till the very end, a certain amount of ‘Phew, Long Journey’, certain amount of curiosity, and anticipation of
“what nextâ€.

Mumbai: Hundreds of fans and onlookers who had been waiting for hours outside Sanjay Dutt’s residence at Pali Hill in Bandra burst firecrackers and distributed sweets on Thursday as the 48-year-old actor reportedly returned home after 22 days in Pune’s Yerawada Jail.
A happy but tired looking Dutt, dressed in a white kurta and trademark blue jeans, was quickly whisked inside by his friends and relatives.
Later, the famous actor came out and mingled with his fans, accepting bouquets, shaking hands and thanking them for the unfailing support and love.
Dutt had appealed for his sentence under the Arms Act to be set aside and for him to be released on probation - as well as filed for bail till the Court decided on his probation plea.
“A huge relief“
Given past records and the very long legal process, it will no doubt make quite some time for Dutt’s case to be heard on its merits - meanwhile the actor, as soon as formalities are complete, will walk free and then pursue his film career.
Dutt’s family were not present in court today; however, his battery of lawyers conveyed to them the news and everyone was extremely happy with this development. Subsequently Dutt’s sister Priya held a brief press conference in which she said, “Of course it is a relief for everyone who is in any way associated with Sanjay. We have gone through the last 13 years and followed every process of law, and had full faith in the law. And this the biggest gift that we have got in return today.“ Ms Priya added, “The battle is not over yet. We have to still face a lot and we will, and that will be the next leg of preparations. I want to thank the people of this country, everyone who has prayed so hard for him, the media which has been very supportive and God to top it all as He has given us our strength - my parents, who I know are around us and will always be around us.“

Dr.Kiran Bedi, IPS Officer is a role model to the women of substance:
- · According to Kiran Bedi , “My concept of a modern woman is a liberated woman. Educated or not, economically independent or not, such a woman is capable of taking her own decisions and standing by them, and-whether she suffers from them or not-she does not look for a shoulder to weep on.” Even so, she says, women “need more quality education and much more vocational training to become truly empowered.” Property ownership is another key to empowerment. “With ownership (or joint ownership),” she says, “a man cannot drink away the family’s property, or sell it and leave the woman and children on the street.· Accomplishing that goal has become the number one priority of the National Commission for Women in India, but the government continues to drag its feet. Political parties must come together in support of this program as well as in support of family planning and more equitable educational opportunities. If they do not, the next generation will not have enough schools, teachers, transportation, health care, housing, or work. Such a situation is a recipe for civil unrest.” For India as a whole, Kiran says, “the key to change lies in the empowerment of village women-the largest percentage of women in India-but change in rural areas is agonizingly slow in coming.”
· Empowerment is related to population. “India is a rich country and should be a beautifully developed country,” Kiran says. “If population had been controlled twenty years ago there would be surplus rather than scarcity, and current growth would not be held captive by the ever-present need to feed new mouths. Women must learn and be allowed to say, ‘No! I don’t want any more than this.’ When that day arrives, daughters will be seen to be as much of an asset as sons, because educated daughters will be as equally capable to take care of parents in their old age as sons. Therefore, economically empowered women are crucial in the struggle to shape a new India.”
· In 1994, backing up her commitment to support reform in several areas, Kiran created the India Vision Foundation, a registered nongovernmental organization designed to carry out projects in the fields of prison reform, drug abuse prevention, empowerment of women, assistance to the mentally disabled, and sports promotion.
· Kiran, who has lived most of her life in the public view, has become a role model for Indian women-the disadvantaged, the marginalized, and the voiceless. Many believe that she literally embodies the struggle for gender equality. She has constantly had to fight against the commonly accepted bias that she is, after all, only female. She has had to battle systems that codify the dehumanization of women, and cultures that are all too willing to toss the talents and potential contributions of women on the rubbish dump. Kiran’s “crimes” have included functioning as an equal, speaking the truth as she saw it, having and implementing original ideas, working hard, and garnering success. And her lack of interest in “playing the game,” within a service in which professionalism has been replaced by favouritism, has been costly both professionally and personally. Although she has realized her childhood dream to “count for something,” her path has not been easy or without the need for sacrifice.
· Even her achievements and awards for service fuel controversy. Some, in looking at her history, see a dedicated and successful officer. Others, generally from among the ranks of the privileged and powerful, see an uppity woman-a narcissistic, publicity-hungry, regulation-flaunting, self-serving, rogue officer who constantly needs to be kept in her place.
· There is no need to say anything specific about this great Indian,” says Gulzar, “She won the Magasaysay Award for her work among prisoners. She has shown what a police officer should be like to our country. She is an icon and a model for all Indian women. We are proud of her because of her many-splendour personality. Whichever function she graces, she adds enlightenment and humour to it. Hers is truly an awesome presence.”
· The first woman IPS officer of India was denied the post of the Commissioner of Police, Delhi. Known for her dedication, she changed the face of Tihar prison as IG, Prisons. She is known for her outstanding work as Police Advisor in the UN peacekeeping department.
· Kiran Bedi, New Delhi’s renowned Inspector General of Prisons, described her presence at Asia Plateau as `a pilgrimage fulfilled’. She had been the first woman recruited to the Indian Police Force, in the 1970s, and when supervisor of Asia’s largest prison, in New Delhi, had introduced Gandhian philosophy and practice. This had dramatically.
· Whatever the outcome, her commitment to family planning, prison reform, women’s emancipation, and education for independence will continue.
· As Kiran Bedi likes Anne Dresskell’s saying “If you look out to do something, it is always possible.”
