Rajeev Paul's
branding lessons! |
|
When we called up Rajeev Paul
to find out what's happening
in his life, we figured out
that the actor is busy taking
a few lessons in understanding
brands these days. It came out
that Rajeev is a regular visitor
to Jai-Hind and HR Colleges
these days.
Says the actor, "I am
trying to get feedback from
marketing students about building
brands. I think being an actor
is also about being a brand.
Though, a lot of actors depend
on their character's brand,
I would like the actor in me
to become the brand. For that
to happen, the feedback of people
who study brands makes a lot
of sense."
Great Rajeev, we appreciate
the efforts you are taking in
building a brand as an actor
and of course who can forget
your recent `circuit act' in
Nach Baliye 2. But, we
just wonder how would you do
justice to the feedback without
much work in hand? Any takers?

Nattasha Rana's connection with SRK? |
|
Nattasha Rana, the low profile
actress who is currently seen
in Zee's Ghar Ki Laxmi Betiyaan
rose to fame as Pam Mallya,
Rudra' s ( played by Nikhil
Arya) mother in Star's afternoon
daily Kesar. But not many know
that Nattasha started her TV
career with a show called Doosra
Kewal directed by Lekh Tandon,
in which her co-star was none
other than today's king Shahrukh
Khan.
Doosra Kewal was SRK's third
show after Fauji and Circus
where Nattasha played his sister.
Not just this, but she later
did a telefilm with SRK called
Aakhen for DD1. Here, he essayed
the role of a blind man and
she was his love interest as
a nurse.
Somehow, over the years Shahrukh
has struck gold, and Natassha
couldn't really create a splash?
But we're deadsure if both had
to ever cross paths again, King
Khan who is known to be a very
humble star will definitely
acknowledge his former costar.

| Sethi's
poor health condition! |
|
Parmeet Sethi and his wife
Archana Puransingh Sethi are
jinxed. Both have not been keeping
well post Jhalak Dikhla Ja
since the past two months. Parmeet
was bed ridden with Typhoid
for well past three weeks while
Archana recently hurt her hand
and is in great pain with same.
"I took a break for two
months and God put me on complete
bed rest for a long time so
thankfully my work didn't suffer.
Now I am back on my toes and
looking out for work" smiles
Parmeet who is looking brighter
than before.
But not many people know that
about two months ago Parmeet's
mother was also ill in Delhi
so he had to frequent the city
every now and then for the same.
Hope this year brings in healthier
and happier days for the made
for each other Sethi couple
who are both on the lookout
for quality work.

Will
Cezzane break the myth?
|
|
The gossip market is
already hot with talks
about Balaji loyalist
Cezanne Khan aka
Anurag Basu opting out
of Kasautii Zindagi
Kay. And like many
others who have taken
this path, he too has
been offered a plum project
by Sandeep Sickand - a
mega show on Sony opposite
none other than Aamna
Shariff.
It's also speculated
that rival channel Zee
has also been coaxing
Cezzane, though he hasn't
given his final nod to
any. He's biding time
till Mohram (auspicious
reasons?).
Now that so many doors
have opened for him, Cezzane
has all the liberty be
choosy! After all he's
a big name thanks to this
only show on TV.
So what will be the fate
of Anurag Basu in Kasautii?
Bumped off…..or plastic
surgery and viola, a new
face…… Going by the adulation
the character enjoys,
the former presumption
can be discounted.
However, if one goes
by the track record of
all the Balaji walkouts,
a majority have been devoid
of the success they met
at this production house.
To cite examples are Rajeev
Khandelwal (Time Bomb,
Left Right Left),
Anuj Saxena (Rishton
Ki Dor), Nausheen
Alii Sardar (Kaalchakara),
Shweta Kawaatra, Shweta
Keswani, Barkha Bisht.
Will Cezanne prove this
statistics wrong???
