On June 18, 2010 in Bidaai, Character, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Romance, Star Plus, TV
On Bidaai on Star Plus, everything seems to be going fine. Even the drama about the illegitimate son of Inderjeet finally blew over. The son came, threatened, put them in some difficult situations, and when Vasu got to know, she was also somewhat angry, but then suddenly the makers of the serial decided to make everything good again and so, Karan decides, after suddenly seeing the ill-health of Sadhana, that he is not really a vindictive person, and this is a good family. So he forgives all of them, makes his peace with them, and then leaves the house.
And then the serial starts moving a bit in fast forward more. Both Sadhana and Ragini are now pregnant, enjoying their pregnancy, everybody is happy and in the mood for celebrations. Sadhana however is a bit worried about whether there will be any bad events in the future, and even has a bad dream about Ragini.
The forecast is all about something bad happening in the serial to Sadhana, either in the form of childbirth, or it was rumored, in the form of a bomb blast. Or will it happen to Ragini. But even a future clip shown on the serial shows mourning in the family with heavy rain, with mourning going on for one of the principal cast members. Also, it seems likely that Kinshuk, who plays Ranvir will be leaving the show, whether there will be somebody replacing him, or they will show his character dying off is not sure right now. And there will be a time leap in the show as well.
What will happen next ? Right now the show is showing the festivities regarding the Godbharai celebration for both of them, to happen in the Rajvansh house.

On June 08, 2010 in Competition, Contest, Dance, Drama, Hindi Serial, Reality Show, Star Plus, TV, Talent, Zara Nachke Dikha
There are a number of dance shows that are currently ongoing, all in the form of reality shows. This is a show on Star Plus, with a large number of contestants drawn from television. The show was launched last year, and this is the second season of the show. The show started on the 1st of May, 2010, and appears on weekends, at 9 PM on Saturday and Sunday. The teams are split into teams of men and women, also called ‘The Battle of the Sexes’ (with the names of the boys team being Mast Kalandar boys, and the girls getting called as the Massakali girls). As would be quite obvious, the boys and girls compete with each other in terms of dancing, and these could be individual dances or group dances. These performances are then evaluated by the judges over the 5 separate rounds that happen over the weekend, and then the team with the highest scores gets to select a member of the opposite team for elimination – and if they impress the judges, they can save themselves from elimination.
The judges for the show are:
Shilpa Shetty Kundra
Arshad Warsi
Vaibhavi Merchant

Hindi TV Serial – Balika Vadhu on Colors – Maasa trying to marry off Jagdish for a second time
On May 26, 2010 in Balika Vadhu, Character, Child, Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Romance, Star Plus, TV
In a major twist to the story, Maasa has been led down the path to believing that Anandi is not the right bride for Jagdish, this is something that Teepri has initiated as part of her major plan to get a separation between Bhairav and his wife, but she had never thought that Maasa would suddenly start believing in this to this degree and make plans in secret to marry off Jagdish to a second wife, and all this without telling anyone (even though some of this planning happens in front of the family, and yet they do not get to know all this). Eventually Kalyani has contacted a set of girl’s parents (again under-age) and then persuaded them for this marriage, and has also taken Jagdish away from the family under the excuse of getting him to visit a Guruji in a nearby village.
And then Khazan Singh, the father of Anandi turns up and raises hell with Bhairav Singh (almost coming to blows with Bhairav since Bhairon cannot believe that his mother would do something like this). Eventually however Khazan Singh brings up a person who had been contacted by Kalyani for this marriage, and then they start finding more evidence that this was something that was being planned. Finally, a shaken Bhairav starts believing that Kalyani indeed was planning on doing something like this, and then Teepri also called Bhairav on the phone to provide him the contact details of where Maasa is along with Jagdish (Teepri wants to do this since she believes that Bhairav would never forgive Maasa along with Teepri if he got to know that Teepri was also involved in this). This is finally information that both Bhairav and Khazan Singh are looking for, and they rush off to this neighboring village.
Hindi TV Serial – Yeh Rishta Kya Kahlata Hain – Naitik and Akshara have a small fight over her birthday
On May 24, 2010 in Drama, Family, Hindi Serial, Marriage, Romance, Star Plus, TV, Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai
This is a show that could have ended with the marriage of the lead pair, but now that the show is continuing, there will be constant efforts to portray the ongoing relationship between the lead pair, and as a part of that, there will constant bickering, fights, reconciliation, and so on. The latest such occasion is on Akshara’s birthday, where she considers that since this is her first birthday after marriage, this will be a special occasion. However, in the morning, Naitik does not tell her anything, and instead goes off for a cricket match; others wish her, send her presents, and so on (and in fact, this is a strange family because in many families, the husband would have been teased earlier about what present he is going to get and so on). It is later that Naitik realizes that it is the birthday and that he needs to do something.
By the time, Akshara is very uncomfortable, even more so when people ask her about what Naitik has got for her and she does not know what to reply to these questions. In the meantime, Naitik has make some arrangements for a party (working along with Mohit) and asks Akshara to be there by 5:30 PM. However, with her own family and other relatives there, Akshara is unable to leave (and is unable to make an excuse to leave to be with Naitik). When Naitik arrives, he is very angry at Akshara, claiming that she did not make much of an effort to come to the party when he had asked her to, and in the meantime, Akshara also learns from a phone call that Naitik had indeed meant to go to a cricket match, and this meant that he had forgotten all about her birthday; and this makes her upset (upset enough that she tells Naitik that he forgot about her birthday). Obviously this tension will get over soon, but right now, it makes them uncomfortable.
