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.

Serial kisser Emran Hashmi reported to have got infuriated on the stages of Star Plus Chotte Ustad. While he has giving performance along with the host and the contests of the show, a lady from the viewers gallery came up on the stage and kissed him. Although everybody in the first instance enjoyed on what was really happening, but the Judge of the show Pritam got enraged and asked the lady who is she really? But there seemed to be no rejoinder on the lady’s expression and she unrelentingly sat on her seat chewing a gum. Can’t forecast anything, as to whether the scene had taken place routinely or the lady was remunerated to do the action for attainment of TRP for the show. The episode will be telecasted on Saturday the 1st March, 2008.
Kazauti Zindaki Ki, Star Plus has finally bid good bye, after running over 7 years, the last episode to be telecast on 28th February,2008. The main leading characters, i.e. Anuraj Basu, Prerna and Komilika are dead and Mr Bajaj has gone mad in the love of Prerna. Prem’s originsl wife Palchim is also dead and he is back with his first love Devki. So with that, the long exaggerated and melodramatic KZK has gone with the wind.
The characters Kumkum and Sumit of serial Kumkum in Star Plus is also dead and they will appear as another character in the reincarnation later. So with that the love scenes flanked by Kumkum and Sumit will also be halted.
The host of weekly show Kaho Na Yaar He in Star Plus is changed from Karn Patel to Aditya Narayan. This is likely to improve the TRP of the show as Aditya has much screen presence than the earlier host Karen.

Pulkit Samrat, who plays Lakshya in the popular soap “Kyunkii Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi�, has accused Ekta kapoor that she had poorly paid and under-utilised and this has bewildered the soap tycoon.
Pulkit has earlier filed a petition in the Bombay High Court against Balaji Telefilms Limited for non-payment and also for a contract that restricted him from working with any other production house for three years. He claims that the case has been won by him.
According to Ektha, “Pulkit seems to have misconstrued what the honorable bench’s verdict. My lawyers know exactly what the court said, and it is not what Pulkit is making it out to be,�
According to sources in Balajai,Pulkit wanted to give away serials and wanted to work in films. So for that intention, he made some lame excuses on health aspects and hence he could come for 3-4 hours in a day for the shooting. This has disturbed the whole situation as the time table was mismanaged. The whole matter started thereafter. But it is not true that Pulkit has won the case , as the case is still pending in the court. It is understood that he took a break when his track was at its peak in the serial and this has infuriated Balaji camp.
According to reports, Ekta will litigate the newspaper, Mumbai Mirror, for publishing the ambiguous report, which suggested that Pulkit has won the case.

Ekta Kapoor’s is launching her new serial Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil 3rd March.
The time slot of the serial will be 8:30 p.m prime-time , thus replacing the oldie, Kasautii Zindagii Kay. It is hoped that the show becomes an amazing hit.
The name of the leading lady of the serial is Aditi Gupta. But since Ekta is fond of numerology fixture and is very gullible about it, it is understood that she made a bit change on the lady’s name, she simply added another D in Aditi to make it more powerful.
So wait and watch for another capacious serial from Balaji.

Kasuti Zindagi Ki will run on-air for some more time with some other gizza pitta episodes, it is learnt. Earlier the serial was going off-air by 17th January. May be Prerna grandma might have requested Ekta Kapoor that now that her divorce proceedings are filed in the court, she may require lots of money to battle the case, hence the show might be extending.
The grand finale of Jhoom India (Sahara One) will be held on 18th January,2008 with Varun-Akriti and Sachin-Madhushree. Both of the jodis Varun and Sachin are awful singers, so henceforth versatile singers like Sonu Nigham and Abhijeet can sit home sulking ,as actors are passionate towards singing too.
Amul Star Voice of India, Chotte Ustad, is turning out to be a good show It is a musical reality show which will find out and launch the most excellent young singing talent from the world of music. Adolescents with dreams of stardom will prove their spirit on this platform. To uncover the real Voice of India, aptitude from diverse corners of the nation will be selected and judged by some of the most honoured names in Indian music industry – extremely talented singers Shreya Goshal and Kunal Ganjawala and music director Pritam and hosted by the talented Voice of India challenger Abhaas. Young singers like Jayant and Anwesha will be an enormous detonation to Bollywood music.
K for Kishore is a only one of its kind, a music reality show in Sony TV. It is a programme with 12 contestants, challenging and aiming at being the voice closest to that of Kishore Kumar. The judges for the show are popular music director & singer Bappi Lahiri who knew Kishoreda as a friend and musician, singer Sudesh Bhonsale, who completed all Kishoreda’s incomplete film songs after his death. It is different from most reality shows, here the judges and studio audiences will have the vital say in the contestants’ headway to next round. So far the show did not take off much- until in the last episode lady singers from previous Indian Idol contest sang with the male singers. That gave a boost to the show. Now it is understood that things are not in good twist between the two hosts Babul Supriyo and Rajeshwari. Rajeshwari, incidentally is the wife of Varun(who is a final contestant for Jhoom India, Sahara One).
Sapna Baabul ka…Bidaai , Star Plus is again turning out to a pretty good serial, which can be watched by the full family unit as it is very clean and the storyline is something similar to film Vivah. As it is extremely dissimilar to other saas bahu stories, audience don’t mind hooking to the small tube for watching it. The serial has reached an ultimate high as it records a high TRP of 5.4 last week, and has even surpassed the ratings of the ever popular K serial KyunKi Saaa Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi.. To add twist to the life of the main central character Ragini , played by Parul Chauhan, she learns to dance and joins a dancing institute run by the new entry Sadia Siddhiqui. Sadia was last seen in Saat Phere and is seen on television after a long break.

Prachi Desai may be young and successful, but the actress is still her own down-to-earth self.

Unit members and co-stars say that though she has signed a film she gives her serial as much importance. The actress spends a lot of time on the sets joking around. In fact she has become even more popular after her victory in Jhalak Dikkhla Ja. Good going girl!

Rakhi alleges she was cheated in reality show.
Crime Branch Deptt. Of the Mumbai Police will enquire into Rakhi Sawant’s and Abhishek’s complaint against Star Plus, the reality show owner of Nach Baliye-3.
- On 15th December, 2007, TV stars Sanjeeda and her Baliye Amir were declared winners of the third Nach Baliye reality dance show, Rakhi-Abhishek were declared the runners up (read related article on this in Bestdesi.com)
- Rakhi alleges that voting was tampered and SMSs in her support were blocked, thus indulging in software manipulation. She further alleges that even before the results were out, they had known that they were lost in the run. She adds that the channel was trying to promote its own shows by ensuring victory for those who act in them, she added. Both Sanjida and Amir act in different serials aired on Star Plus.
- The duo alleges that if the police do not enquire into the matter under “cyber crime�, such frauds will never stop and Rakhi has pleaded the Mumbai Police to act as “Santa� and initiate action against the channel and the show organizers.
- Incidentally, Mumbai Police has made it clear that was a “non priority� matter and would be probed in a routine manner only as according to the Police there are far bigger issues of importance than this, so they will deploy their men as per the merits of the case.
- Rakhi also challenged other contestants saying, “I and Abhishek will be performing on 31st night, which will be a challenge for us and everybody else. People will come to know the real abilities of Rakhi and Abhishek.”
- We at BestDesi.com feels that all over again this is a media hype feat of Rakhi, she is not even an established actress and as us usual Rakhi is very superlative undertaking these form of gimmicks and it is absolute squander of time on her part to do these type of campaigns thus wasting the time and energy of Mumbai Police who have lots of other significant everyday jobs on their shoulders than intriguing care of melodramatic queen Rakhi’s tantrums. She just wants to create a controversy for the sake of it, she lost because of her DIRTY image rather than vote rigging.

- Unlike her sniveling figure of a bahu in the serial, Shweta Tiwari has began divorce proceeding in a court of law to get lawfully detached from her husband Raja Chaudhary. The three divorce listening’s have already been confined the court.
- Sources say that Raja Chaudhary is still aspirant of some miracle which can preserve his wedding, but the star lady of Kasautii Zindagi Kay is inflexible on getting break up from her husband of about a decade.
- Currently, the alienated husband has been staying put with a friend in Malad as both the flats have been absorbed by the stunning actress. According to Raja, once when he returned home from work in the evening, he saw that somebody had put a new lock on the main door. Thinking that it might be Shetwa, he called her but she told him that he had no access to any of their houses, and that she had gone to court about the matter.
- It appears that Shweta Tiwari is in no more frame of mind to harmonize, but her husband believes otherwise and finds fault impertinent works for this no-account state of matter. Raja Chaudhari is presently acting in two soaps— Chandramukhi and Jaayen Kahaan?, but is not satisfied with the earnings and is reconnoitring for more work to bridge over this financial crisis. This shows he might be financially dependant on Shweta.
- Shweta has a daughter of 6-7 years who is presently living with Shweta.

Balaji Tele Films a.k.a Ekta Kapoor is getting accomplishment in Arab countries through her daily soaps.
“That’s because we’ve decided to make soaps for the Gulf countries. As it is, they watch pirated versions of our Indian soaps, so I decided, why not make serials separately for the Muslim world?” says the thrilled Ekta.Â
Creation of Ekta’s new brain-wave moderately was easy because of her super-popular Gujarati culture-specific soaps like “Kyunkii Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi” are easily adaptable into a Muslim vibes.
According to Ekta, “Whether it’s a Gujarati business family or a Muslim business family, the themes are interchangeable. But the characters and their names, clothes and environment are variableâ€?. Â
“Think of how popular these Gulf-produced serials would be when my “Kyunkis” and “Kasautis” are so popular in Pakistan and the Gulf countries. “
“It’s a new and bold step for us. I love challenges. What’s life without them”? By making Muslim socials I’ll have the entire Indian, Pakistani and Middle East population watching my soaps. We hope to have 2-3 soaps on air in 2008 from our Gulf office,” said the overconfident Ekta.

- · 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 space�.
- 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 next�.
