Smriti
mortified! |

Aasma's
the limit! It
couldn't have asked for a better promotional platform. Pop band
Aasma that has been lying low after the initial Chandu ke Chacha
starburst, has cut 11 tracks for Star One's new series, Remix. The
Shrishti Behl created serial has music for a backbone, dwelling
as it does on the pop band that a bunch of elite high school students
put together. We also hear that Star may soon compile an album from
the songs sung for the series. One can only hope that these aren't
remixes, though! |

Three's
company Seems
like there is a new circle of friends now. But this one is as quirky
as it gets. Tarot card reader Sunita Menon is often seen hanging
out with either soap queen Ekta's brother Tusshar Kapoor or Bollywood's
fav fashion designer Manish Malhotra. Maybe it was the Zoom effect,
but both Malhotra and Menon walked in for the Telly Awards 2004
function together and were seated together throughout the event.
Ditto for the Bombay Times party where Menon and Kapoor were seen
together... What's it, a cosmic connection??? |

Jassi mobbed |

Did
you know that just when the Indian Telly Awards were getting underway,
rumours flew thick and fast in the city that Smriti Z Iraani (Tulsi
of Kyunki...) had died in a road accident. We called to
check and Smriti herself attended the call. 
Preeti
Dayal may be busy writing the slipping Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin
-it's slid since some creative minds in charge of the show decided
to deviate from the original Betty La Fea script - but
the lady has something up her sleeve, apart from the film script
she is penning. Latest, she is writing something for Deeya and
Tony Singh again, and the show is slated for Sahara One. Is Sony
listening?
Miditech's
Saara Akaash is likely to go off air in January 2005, but
we hear the production house may close the serial with an open
end, leaving behind a tantalising possibility to restart with
the usual kahani mein twist. We also hear that the show
may be re-run on Star One. Any takers?
Ekta
Kapoor's penchant for giving work to her loyal coterie continues.
The latest addition to this bandwagon is Ali Asgar. When contacted,
all Asgar would say is, "It's a bit early to talk about it,
but yes, I am working with Ekta again very soon." We are
watching, Ali.
Well,
seems like the lady with an attitude, has found her match. Narayani
Shastri of Piya Ka Ghar fame was recently been seen at
the movie premiere with a fellow Zee artiste--- 'Lavanya's Gaurav
Chopra. We haven't got a chance to grill either but we are quite
sure that something is brewing. We saw them munching popcorn at
a Hindi film premiere at Fame's In-orbit in Malad, a week later
we saw them giggling over kiddie flick Shark Tale. 
Little
did we realise the actual star prowess of Jassi, till we saw it
with our own eyes at the telly awards. While hunks like Ronit
Roy and Rajeev Khandelwal just had few fans mobbing them for autographs,
there was serious frenzy when Jassi stepped out of the venue to
go towards her car. In addition to her bodyguards, additional
volunteers had to be called in to cordon off the area till she
got into the car. The fans were chanting, "Jassi Jaissi sach
mein koi nahi..."
