News has floated that Ashwini Kalsekar. will once again revive her association with Sony's CID. On popping some memory pills, one can recall that years back, this talented actor enjoyed a sound spell on this long running hit investigative show before hitting jackpot as Jigyasa with Zee's Kasamh Se. Producer - director, BP Singh has confirmed this comeback by stating, "She will appear on my show in the not too distant future. Ashwini will be playing a senior cop and will be seen in quite a few episodes."

Kalsekar, who has bagged this year's Indian Telly Award for best actress in a negative role, was in fact invited by Singh for the recently held 10-year celebratory bash for CID. And it was at this occasion that the director offered her to join them back to which Ashwini agreed.

We are sure this Maharashtrian mulgi will again woo her audiences as her golden days are already on the roll, with Sony's Jeete Hain Jiske Liye and a-soon-to-be-unveiled project in her kitty.

In keeping with image of World cup cricket host country, West Indies, as a fun and a happening place, Set Max has re designed the studio of Extraaa Innings, its famous pre and post match show hosted by noodle strap Mandira Bedi and cricket wizard Charu Sharma. The formal studio type look seen in previous editions will be replaced by a casual look and feel. This time around the host & panelist( Tony Greig, Ian Chappell John Wright with not sit uptight but will rather move away from the desks and lounge around fancy coffee tables.

There will also be an projection behind that will play interesting facets of the Caribbean Islands, its happening beaches and beautiful and friendly people. By now we all know a lot about Mandy's hep sarees and blouses, wonder what clothes Charu and other guests will wear?

In keeping with the above trend, hope they turn up in multi coloured Hawain shirts and short with a typical straw hats, guzzling chilled bear and passing flirty remarks, besides talking about cricket as well.

By now it's old hat that Vikas Manektala aka Hooda of Left Right Left has a huge attitude and doesn't miss any opportunity to throw his weight around.

According to the grapevine, Vikas picks up a fight with everyone from the spot boy to the dress designer, including his co-stars. Recently, when they were shooting a scene where Dr.Shalini (Aparna Tilak) turns into a crystal gazer and predicts the future of the cadets and others, Vikas refused to shoot. Neither did he leave the sets but sat outside saying unless and until his payment was made, he will not shoot.

Of course, not that this bothered the director who went ahead with the scene without Vikas, although he is one of the main characters in the serial.

Reports have been filtering in regarding his high-handed behaviour with everyone except Priyanka, Naina in the serial, for whom he has a soft corner. It is believed that they are seeing each other.

The serial deals with men in uniform, training cadets for military enrolment and is quite a hit on SAB TV, with actors like Puneet Issar, Rajeev Khandelwal, Shveta Salve, Aparna Tilak and Priya Arya besides a lot of youngsters as new comers like Vikas Manektala, Kunal Kapoor, Priyanka Bassi and Ghazal Rai. Versatile actor Rajesh Khera had also essayed the role of a Major on the campus.

Queen bee of soaps, Ekta Kapoor loves to shock viewers with her unexpected twists and turns in her saas bahu soaps. The recent re-entry of Daksha Ben in Kyunki being a case in point. Sometime back, the generation leap in Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki, along with Parvati's new look and the entry of veteran actor Aroona Irani helped her boost her TRPS

For the uninitiated, Aroona Irani has been shown as a friend, philosopher and guide to Parvati. Now, the buzz goes, that the audience will receive a big shock when Aroona Irani would turn negative. This will also go to add on to Parvati's non-ending emotional battle, and her unending tears.

Irani's role was initially only for three months but going by the viewer feedback, looks like the track is being carried forward. Also, since her own show Doli Saja Ke for Sahara One has got delayed, now the producer can focus on Ekta's show for the moment. .

So, are we all ready for the shock when Aruna shows her true colours ?
