‘Preet Se Bandhi Ye Dori Ram Milaayi Jodi’ has gradually turned out to be one of the best soaps on Zee TV. The TRPs of this serial has seen an increase over the past couple of weeks, but this definitely does not mean that the makers of the serial are free from trouble. Reports claim that lead actress Priyal Gor has come across as a tantrum queen on the sets of ‘Ram Milaayi Jodi’ and the producers want to get rid of her as soon as possible.

Madhuri Dixit used to be the reigning queen of Bollywood when she suddenly got married and went off to USA. Recently, she tried to make a comeback into the film industry with her movie Aaja Nachle (2007) but the film bombed at the box office. Recent reports suggest that Madhuri is all set to make her debut in the small screen.  Madhuri might become the judge for the next season of ‘Jhalak Dikhla Ja’. The  actress has been approached by the makers of the show to be on the judging panel.  Madhuri gave her nod to show after going through all the details and she is all set to make her debut in the small screen.

The fans of 'Pavitra Rishta' can expect some good moments in the upcoming episodes this month and it will be a Diwali treat for the viewers. Zee TV is planning to offer that much awaited twist to the show when Manav and Archana will decide to take the call of love.

This just goes on to show that Big B is still the ruling man in whole of Bollywood, be it the big or the small screen. A recent review has shown that ‘KBC 4’ has outgunned reality television shows like ‘Bigg Boss 4’ and ‘Master Chef’ on TRP ratings. This means that a larger section of people in India would rather watch Amitabh Bachchan belting out his questions in ‘KBC’, rather than the onscreen histrionics of actors Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar.

Rati Pandey aka Nupur of ‘Miley Jab Hum Tum’ fame seems to have everything going for her at this point of time. The youth centric show begun more than two years ago and is still going strong despite a few hiccups in between.  The outspoken girl  Nupur is a character after Rati’s own heart who joins the hip and happening Excel college crowd after having transcended the barriers of the sleepy little town of Morena  which lies at the back of beyond.  The coming together of Mayank  (Arjun Bijlani) and Nupur seems to have struck a chord with the audience who raised a tremendous hue and cry following Nupur’s death in the show. Consequently Nupur had to be brought back albeit with a memory loss in order to keep the viewers happy. ‘Miley Jab Hum Tum’ continues to enjoy a good run despite having taken a hit in the popularity factor even as the protagonists together with the newly introduced characters continue to take the tale forward.

It has not been many days that “Pavitra Rishta”, one of Zee TV’s most popular daily soaps has gone for a leap of one year to make things more interesting for the viewers. However, it now seems that the viewers are far from interested in the serial, with producers noticing that the TRPs have dipped further over the past few weeks.

Television actress Mouli Ganguly has finally tied the knot with her long-time beau television actor Mazher Sayed. They registered their marriage in Mumbai on October 15, on the auspicious occasion of ‘Ashtami Puja’.

Indian audiences are acquainted with the sequels of Bollywood films but they are not habituated to see the sequels of any television serial. Even the most popular television serials have not come up with a sequel yet. Now, here is an exception. Balaji Telefilm’s show ‘Kitni Mohabbat Hai’ is coming up  with a second season next month.

Indian television viewers will experience a different kind of family drama from tonight as Sony Entertainment Television is going to launch a new show titled ‘Saas Bina Sasural’.

The current track Colors’ show ‘Na Aana Is Des Laado’ is focusing on Ammaji trying to abort Sia’s pregnancy, who is expecting a girl child. Soon, there will be a situation where Ammaji will try to harm Sia by putting poison in her milk. At this point of time, Mallika Sherawat will enter the serial as Naag Maata (snake Goddess) and drink the poisoned milk for Sia thus saving her.

Television hunk Iqbal Khan, who is presently seen in Zee TV’s show ‘Sanjog Se Bani Sangini’, is not keeping well these days. The actor is hospitalized now and the series of tests conducted on him revealed that the actor is suffering from the dreaded dengue. Hence, the fans will naturally miss him on screen for few days.
