Anusha Dandekar designs lingerie line, adds fun to it

Popular TV host and video jockey (VJ) Anusha Dandekar has lent her creativity to a lingerie line, which she says is fun and expressive.

"To me, fashion is about embracing my individual style. Lingerie has always been an important part of fashion and lingerie has been a very important part of my wardrobe since the very beginning.

"With this collaboration, I really want to show that lingerie can be just as fun and expressive as clothes even if it's not always on view, and therefore it's been a dream for many many years to have my own lingerie line," Anusha said in a statement.

She is launching it in association with PrettySecrets, a brand that she feels is synonymous with her own vibe.

Anusha is bringing her body-positive ethos for young, fun, quirky design, fresh and vibrant colours. Underwear with quirky one-liners and mood-based ones are a part of the Anusha For PrettySecrets, which targets the young, fun, fashionable girls who would like to buy something from a celebrity label collection at affordable price points.

Web shows are more experimental: Purab

Actor Purab Kohli will soon be seen in the second season of web series It’s Not That Simple. He says content and costing wise, web shows are more experimental than movies but he loves doing both.

"The good thing about web series is that it is the current trend. Many people like to watch it. It keeps you engaged for a longer period of time. You follow stories, it can be more fleshed out and told extensively," Purab told leading publication.

"Web shows are more experimental in their content and costing wise. On the other hand, I love doing films. Both of them are very engaging," he added.

Directed by Danish Aslam, the second edition of Voot Original web series It's Not That Simple also features Swara Bhasker and Sumeet Vyas.

Swara plays Meera - confident, ambitious and a strong woman who becomes the mouthpiece of a modern woman who compels you to ask - Does the sex matter?

"The main pointers for me were that Meera's character is moving forward so that straight away makes for a good second season and the show is moving in a direction. The character is growing and expanding itself. I mean finding more ground to head on so that itself is exciting," said Purab.

"For me, the character Angad was very interesting. He is blatant, straightforward and at the same time very honest and he comes across as someone who you don't like in the beginning but once you see how honest and straightforward he is of what he wants and what he says, I think. It's quite refreshing to see someone like that," added the Rock On!! actor.

On the show's second season, he shared, "I think the first season dealt with breaking away and now the second season is where she (Meera) is finding new ground, she's discovering new ground and finding a new self. Finding herself out of her marriage and traditional definitions of Meera, she is now trying to find new Meera.  

"That Meera wants to achieve and be loved. I think that is the aspect people should look out for and of course, the introduction of mainly two known male characters played by Sumeet and me. Both are very interesting characters."

Purab had also starred in the American science fiction drama web series Sense8.

Talking about the difference between shooting for an Indian web show and an American one, he pointed out, "Foreign productions function differently than Indian productions. The training is different. Outplay of the role is different, also the budgets are massively different so, it's not fair to even compare."

Vir Das' 'Whiskey Cavalier' to premiere on Feb 27, 2019

Actor-comedian Vir Das American TV show Whiskey Cavalier will premiere on 27 February 2019.

Vir, who will be seen playing an agent named Jai Datta in the show, took to social media on Thursday to share the information.

"Announcement! The date is set. Whiskey Cavalier is coming to ABC Network on February 27. See you on Wednesdays! And hello American TV," Vir tweeted.

He was also extremely excited to share a snapshot of a digital billboard of his Netlfix show Losing It beaming at New York's iconic Times Square.

"I'm so sorry to do this. It's hard to be 'cool' about this one. I'm excited and grateful. If you told me three years ago that I'd get a billboard on Times Square, I'd tell you that you were losing it," Vir tweeted.

Whiskey Cavalier makes him the second Indian after Priyanka Chopra to get the feat after her hit show Quantico premiered on ABC.

Vir said in a statement, "Priyanka Chopra has done extremely well in America and had opened doors for many people. She has become an icon and a recognisable name there. She has paved a way and I'm glad Whiskey Cavalier is happening at a time when there's a growing diversity in the West."

The actor is currently in Prague filming for the show and is set to return to India soon to begin his next project.

Also, Vijendra Saxena has been roped in for an important character. He replaced Rakesh Bedi a day before the shoot. What can be the reason?

Lucky enough to try different roles: Shivin Narang

Shivin Narang is in love with his profession as he gets to portray multiple characters in the same show. Now he is playing a lot of different characters in Internet Wala Love and he feels really challenging to play and to done different get-ups. He dressed up as a halwai, doodhwala, guard, peon, old man, manager and there are many more to come.

Shivin, who is playing the lead character of Jai Mittal in the show, says, “The favourite role amongst all is of the old man look as it was very different and the sequence was to find out who is creating problems in my and Aadhya's friendship and my look was looking little similar to Amitabh Bachchan sir."

I can really relate to Rajmata in Kaal Bhairav Rahasya 2: Vineeta Malik

Actor Vineeta Malik, who is a part of Kaal Bhairav Rahasya 2, says the title of the show is enough to attract people towards it. The actor adds that the show name makes people curious about the content, which is what works for the show. “The title really sounds interesting, people start thinking what is Kaal Bhairav. Everyone is confused about whether it is a thriller or a mythological show. But I can say that it is very different in itself. The audience wants to see who is Kaal Bhairav, is it a human being or a God?” she says.

Talking about her character, she says, “I am playing Rajmata. I am the eldest in the house. As I am ageing now, I have handed all the responsibilities to Maharani and given her all the authorities to make the house run on her terms. But I still enjoy that respect and that position in the house.”

Vineeta further adds that she really associates with her character. “I am the eldest one in my house; here also I am shown as the eldest one, so that thing is similar. The way I get respect at home is the same way my character gets respect in the show. I can really relate to my character as I have the responsibility of my family at home and in the show,” she says.

The actor shares a great relationship with everyone in the show. “Normally, I gel with everybody but I share my makeup room with Vandana (Kenisha Bhardwaj) so I have bonded the most with her. She is much younger than me, she must be half my age. She is really sweet. Being with these young kids on set makes me forget my age. We all joke around and really have fun with each other. As Kenisha is my roommate, she is like family with me. I feel like she is my kid and we both keep on giving advice to each other. She tells me about new things and I really like the way we bond,” she says.


Vineeta has been a part of the industry since some time now and says that the industry has changed a lot. “The industry has changed a great deal, from black and white it has become multicolour now. When I had started my career in 1972, it was really difficult for us to reach a position in the industry. There used to be so many auditions and then we used to have diction classes in which we were taught how to pronounce particular words. We had to struggle a lot back then. Nowadays, everyone gets it easily. If you know how to deliver dialogues, you can get ahead easily. Also, the actors of this generation are also very good. I get to learn a lot of new things, there are so many new techniques,” she says.

Meanwhile, Vineeta says that she loves working with producer Ravindra Gautam. “He is such a sweet person. We don't feel at all that he is the director and producer of the show. I am working with him for the first time but I can feel how down to earth he is. He is so polite and has a smiling face all the time. It really feels good, I get a very homely feeling, so everything is great,” she says.

Saurabh Pandey doles out style and fitness secrets

It’s safe to say that actor Saurabh Pandey is one of the good-looking actors in the TV industry. His height, coupled with his ruggedly handsome looks and killer personality have clearly made him the most sought after actor. Wondering how he manages? “For maintaining and managing myself, I take care of what I eat, I also workout and keep myself in check,” he says.

He adds, “The only thing I would like to say to myself is to be focussed and take care of your body and the body will take care of you.”

Ask him if he feels that being endowed with good looks means half the battle won as an actor, and he says, “I don't feel that good looks mean half the battle won in the acting field. As looks and acting are two different things. Looks are used for modelling and acting is a totally different concept. It's not necessary that you should be good looking to act well. But no doubt, looks are a plus point if you are a good actor.”

And who is his favourite actor? “I feel Salman Khan is the most charming and good-looking actor in Bollywood. Whatever his age may be, his charm will never go, like Sylvester Stallone.”

Gurucharan Singh’s concern for Delhi!

Gurucharan Singh, who plays Sodhiji in Tarak Mehta Ka Ulta Chashma, has strong views on Delhi smog. He says, "I want my hometown to be clean and perfect. Delhi city is getting worse day by day and we have to take the responsibility of that, like this time I did not burn crackers, of course I burnt crackers in Tarak Mehta show but that was just a Fuljhadi (sparkler) just for a scene, but personally I did not burn any kind of crackers as I know that it causes pollution.”

“We need to take responsibility to clean our city, we have to see what we can do for it, as it is urgently required, as things are going worst, because if we don't take action now, future generation will suffer as our present generation is already suffering , so let’s come together and take action which would stop smog and pollution. I had gone last month even then air was polluted,” he adds.

The actor loves winters. He says, “I love winters in spite of that I would go only if there is emergency or some urgent work in Delhi. In winters the visibility on road in mornings and even evenings is very bad. I can't change my hometown but I can surely take precaution for health and urge people to use masks and also do car pooling when they travel to office or use a metro to travel. Air pollution needs to be controlled, and planting more trees also needs to be encouraged.”

Well, we appreciate your concerns for Delhi.
