Mansi
'Monalika' Verma celebrates birthday on 'KGGK' sets To add to her happiness, Mansi learnt that her character Monalika is getting a pleasant twist in the serial - Aryan gets her to sign a property document that will end up gifting her child half of his property eventually! Away from the sets, Mansi
also celebrated the day at home later and among the gifts she
received was a DKNY watch from her mother. What a way to spend
a birthday! |

Varun
returning in 'DMNHC' While
Sangeeta Ghosh has now a double role in Sanjay Wadhwa's Des
Mein Niklla Hoga Chand (slated to become a half-hour show, courtesy
Ekta Kapoor's forthcoming Kkavyanjali), we have sources telling
us that Varun Badola (who was a part of the serial when Aroona Irani
was handling it) is tying up his shoe laces to return. While Badola
who plays a main role in Zee's Astitva- Ek Prem Kahani recently
married Rajeshwari, his ex-flame Maninee De sent shock waves by tying the knot with Mihir Mishra who, we were the first to tell you in this same column, had snapped ties with his long-time girlfriend Shilpa Kadam. |

Khichdi team's popularity
soars! The entire Parekh family, eccentricities et al, traveled to the neighbouring state to flag off the festival that will culminate on Makar Sankranti this weekend. Anang Desai, Rajeev Mehta and Supriya Pathak were some of stars of the show who lent their star appeal to the festival, and also observed a two minute silence for those who perished in the tsunami. |

When
one works 12 hour shifts, it's inevitable that even celebrations
spill into professional lives. On Tuesday, Mansi Verma celebrated
her birthday (we ain't telling which one!) on the Kahaani...
sets with her co-stars. There was a cake, flowers and a Chinese
lunch for the unit.

Paul
and Deepshikha have been added in Pal Tham Gaya (to be
directed by Hriday Shetty) where Dimple and Rishi rediscover past
passions at a lonely old age, playing lovers, parents and then
grandparents, in multi-faceted roles. Besides, there is a younger
couple as well in the film- Sameer Dattani and Soha Ali Khan.
This will be Deepshikha's first appearance in a film after recovering
from her second delivery.
The
recent trend in the glamour world is to delay the babies as much
as possible. But Manini De and Mihir Mishra may prove to be an
exception. The couple say that they will soon, rather very soon,
start a family. Now let's see
The
Charas filmmaker, who started his career making six episodes
of Star Bestsellers for Star Plus, returns to the Star
fold this weekend with a telefilm Woh Dus Din for Star
One. WDD is a delightful tale, pithily told, about a film
unit that has to churn out a feature film in 10 days flat to meet
the demands of an underworld don.
Now
this puts the official stamp on their popularity! The Gujarat
government invited the Instant Khichdi team to inaugurate
its week long kite festival in Ahmedabad recently.
