New Sanaya News

The latest news on Sanaya's new show ... Aditya Redij out, Harshad Chopra in. This according to Bollywood life, which is not a very reliable site, however, SBS also reported the same news today, so there may be some truth in it. Still waiting for confirmation from more sources.

If it's true, I'm happy ... Harshad has long been on my list of desired ML's for Sanaya ... he is tall, good looking and a good actor, and will make a good pair with San. They both debuted in the same show, Left Right Left, so there will be a comfort level there already.

While in this case on TV , Sanaya will play Aamir Khan's part and Harshad will play Juhi Chawla's character. So the serial Meenu Mausi will actually a story of a young girl Meenu who accidentally gets responsibly of her sisters kids and her life is changed after this.

Life changed for Harshad after playing Prem in Kis Des Mein Hai Meraa Dil.' While for Sanaya playing Khushi Kumari Gupta in Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Do' made her an overnight sensation.
Incidentally both Sanaya and Harshad made their TV debut with same show Left Right Left' on Sab TV. But they were in two different seasons and never worked together.


The last bit is not true ... Sanaya and Harshad did share screen space in LRL in about 8-10 episodes. And we have a few offscreen pics of them together, where they looked really good ... which is why I have been wanting to see them onscreen together.

Harshad Chopra ready to make a comeback on TV!

By: ABP New Bureau | Last Updated: Saturday, 30 July 2016 11:51 AM
New Delhi: Remember SAB TV's Left Right Left'! Wasn't it an amazing show, as it gave us a lot of talented actors.  Sanaya Irani and Harshad Chopra were one those who made their TV debut from this show. We never saw their pairing on TV screens, but looks like that it will happen now.
Harshad Chopra was last seen six months back on Sony TV's show Humsafars'. But it seems Television is where his true calling is. And this time he is paired with none other than Sanaya Irani. Yes Harshad Chopra is making a comeback.
They both will be seen in Meenu Mausi' which is actually a television adaptation of Aamir Khan-Juhi Chawla's Hum Hai Raahi Pyaar Ke that released in 1993. While in this case on TV , Sanaya will play Aamir Khan's part and Harshad will play Juhi Chawla's character. So the serial Meenu Mausi will be a story of a young girl Meenu who accidentally gets responsibly of her sisters kids and her life is changed after this. In this journey of forced parenthood she meets a boy who actually will make her sail through this ordeal with dealing with the errant kids and yes they fall in love as well.
Well, it will be interesting to see this fresh pairing of the popular face of television and we are sure that they both will look cute together. But how much magic their chemistry will create!

Tellychakkar also gives an article, but puts a ? in the title.

Sanaya-Harshad to star together in Meenu Mausi?


The superhit romcom from the 90s, Hum Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke, is all set to be remade for the small screen. Good news, eh? Wait. We have even better news.
TV hotties Harshad Chopda and Sanaya Irani are recreating the iconic movie in Meenu Mausi, an entertainment portal has reported. According to the site, the twist is that Harshad and Sanaya would be playing Juhi Chawla and Aamir Khan’s roles, respectively.
Which means that Sanaya would play the titular role of a clueless maasi who has to take care of her sister’s kids, while Harshad would be paired opposite her.
He would not only help her handle the kids, but also become her anchor, who would eventually fall in love with her, the site added further.
It’s said that the two have already shot for the pilot episode. Even though the pair has never been cast opposite each other, they starred in two seasons of Left, Right, Left on SAB TV.
Sanaya, who recently got married, would be making her comeback post-marriage. On the other hand, Harshad was last seen in Humsafars.

TV Shows I'm Watching

Still watching

Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke ... the girl has improved slightly, though not too much ... the story is meandering towards the crux now, but I hope they don't make Ishwari too grey. She is becoming too obsessed with her son and the thought of 'losing' him to a new girl ... it's as though she never thought he would ever get married and have a life of his own away from her. Supriya P is a wonderful  actress, I hope she is able to keep Ishwari realistic, and not make her into a typical possessive wicked MIL. Having said that, many MILs are very possessive about their sons, and expect to remain number one in their lives even after their wives come in, so this is not so far from reality.
I like the contrast they are showing in Neha and Ranveer's life, where Neha is trying her best to adjust, and Ranveer and his family appreciate her efforts, and make their own efforts in return. So Neha and Ranveer are getting ready to shift to a small flat of their own, close to his family's house, but enough to give them some privacy, which they lack in Ranveer's family home. And Ranveer's mother and bhabhi are all encouragement for the move.

Bade Bhaiya Ki Dulhaniya ... just started watching this, and I am liking it a lot. For one thing, both the ML and FL are good ... I thought from the promos that the FL would be an airy fairy silly girl, but she makes her own sense out of things, she may be non-academic, but she is not unintelligent, at least, not as of now. And the actress is good at the light hearted stuff, she is bindaas and chirpy, but not annoyingly so. Priyanshu, the ML, is a good actor, and is doing well. the family are all good, special mention to the handicapped Rohan - the actor is doing an excellent job, and the writing is brilliant. Will have to wait and see if the FL can emote well in more serious heavy duty scenes and romance ... she is carrying out the light stuff well.

Ek Duje Ke Vaaste, Ishqbaaz ... not really following too much. IB is too much a carbon copy of IPK,  with no charisma or chemistry between the leads at all ...Nakul is a good actor, but is struggling with the regular Gul angry young man character, Anika is unremarkable. Omkara, the actor and character both are decent, but haven't followed lately to see what's happening with him.

Waiting for more news on Sanaya's new show ... in the meantime, DABH is finally going off air and the new show replacing it is Naamkaran, with Viraf Patel in the lead ... it sounds interesting, as it's based on Zakhm, and on Mahesh Bhatt's life,which was the story of Zakhm. Looking forward to that one.

Sanaya News

Coincidence much ... just a couple of days back, I posted a Sanaya article because I was missing her so much ... and today we get an article in TellyChakkar about her return :)
On Star Plus ... PH is the PH of Bahu Hamari Rajnikant on Life OK, as we guessed, as her mock shoot was on the sets of that show ... male lead has already been zeroed in, Aditya Redij, a good looking guy, and a decent actor.

Celebration time!!! http://www.tellychakkar.com/tv/tv-news/sanaya-back-star-plus-next-aditya-redij-likely-be-the-male-lead-160718



Sanaya Irani is back!!!
Yes, the extremely popular actress who is presently in the pink of happiness post her wedding with actor Mohit Sehgal, will soon be back in action!!
The news coming to us is that Sanaya will play the lead in Full House Media’s next for Star Plus!!
Wowiee!! Isn’t this great news?
A credible source shares some confidential information with us, “Sonali Jaffer and Amir Jaffer are presently working on a show for Star Plus. The story will focus on an unmarried mausi, who will devote her life in the upbringing of the three kids of her sister.”
And the central role of the mausi will be played by Sanaya, is what we hear.
Tentatively titled ‘Meenu Mausi’, the next big ticket show on Star Plus will be a family drama with a difference. 
And the handsome hunk who would in all probability be cast opposite Sanaya will be Aditya Redij
Are your jaws dropping? Yes, this Jodi of Redij and Sanaya seems really fresh and impressive!!
While Sanaya will make her comeback to fiction space after Rang Rasiya, Redij was last seen in & TV’s Meri Awaaz Hi Pehchaan Hai. Sanaya was part of Season 8 of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. 
Our source adds on, “Two popular men, Shaleen Malhotra and Aditya Redij were short listed for the lead’s role inMeenu Mausi. With Shaleen all set to bag the lead in Balaji Telefilms’ show for Star Plus, it looks as though Redij will lap up this prized offer.”
We tried our best contacting both Sanaya and Redij, but could not get through to them. 
As we know, Full House Media has their successful show Bahu Humari Rajni_kant going strong on Life OK. 
Producer Amir Jaffer said that the show is in its initial stage and nothing has been confirmed yet.
We dropped a text message to the channel spokesperson, but received no revert till the time we filed the story.

Fans of Sanaya Irani who are missing their bae from the small screen have some good news. She is reportedly going to make a comeback soon with a show on Star Plus titled Meenu Mausi. It is a show devoted to a woman who has dedicated her life to the upbringing of her sister's three kids. She will play an unmarried character.

The TV diva was last seen as Paro on Rangrasiya. Fans loved her chemistry with co-star Ashish Sharma who played Rudra Ranawat on the show. The lady got hitched at the start of 2016 with long-time beau, Mohit Sehgal.

Article on Sanaya ... and other TV shows

http://www.fuzionproductions.com/top-10-tv-actors-traits-loved-fans/11/

Article mentioning Sanaya, posting here because I am so starved of any Sanaya news, any little drop is welcome!

"Thy name is a true professional. it is rare to find an actor so professional, who knows how to make a complete and successful balance between work, fans, friends and personal life. She doesn't believe in encouraging nonsense or even for that matter giving any false hopes to anyone. She believes in straight talk and doesn't like anyone commenting on her personal life and makes sure not to even give anyone the opportunity to. She makes sure to let her work do the talking and that's about that. Now who wouldn't love such a strong personality? We all do and respect such attitude and balance."


Updates in the last couple of months ... Sanaya totally underground, it seems she went on a month long holiday in Europe, as we got a picture of her and Mohit in Spain, on what appeared to be a cruise ship. Pic was tweeted by Mohit ... Thank god he is on twitter and takes pity on us poor fans occasionally. Arjun B was in Madrid for the IIFa awards and met up with the two, he also tweeted a couple of pictures. After that, we got a pic of San at Srman's birthday (the guy who played her brother in Chhanchhan), so we know she is back in Mumbai. No further news on her new show, and Sanaya herself is completely underground. So we wait ... and wait ... and wait ...

In the meantime, started watching Gul's new offering on Star Plus, which replaced Tamanna - Ishqbaaz. Gul has a major problem ... lack of creativity. So her main pairs are always angry young men paired with bubbly, chirpy, middle class (read poor) orphan girls ... IB is no exception. Nakuul is taking a while to settle into the angry young man role ... fortunately he is not as insufferable as ASR was at the start of IPK, although his interactions with his FL, Annika are worse and pretty senseless as of now. Also, they have no chemistry ... Nakuul is not bad, but the actress playing Annika, Surbhi C, is terrible.

As of now, the Oberoi brothers' bromance is very watchable ... Pinki, Shivaay's mom, after an OTT start, has mellowed slightly to becoming watchable, Mahesh Thakur (Tej Oberoi) is a surprise playing a very grey character, and is good to watch as always, Jahnvi, his wife is interesting and more subtle in her acting than the rest ... the rest are standard TV actors and characters. There are already three vamps in the show ... Roop, the brothers' bua ... Svetlana, Tej's mistress ... and a very, very forgettable, OTT screechy bua of the FL, who never speaks her dialogues, she only screeches them. Very, very annoying ... actually, the entire FL's family is annoying, Annika, her brother Saahil and her screechy bua. Hope Gul does not go the QH way and give the vamps major screen space ... that will put me completely off the show.
I like the middle brother, Omkara and the younger Rudra. Rudra's love interest is cute, but has been in only a couple of scenes till now. Let's see how it goes ... knowing Gul, anything is possible, but in terms of chemistry, she has missed the boat this time (actually the last couple of times - even Humsafars on Sony, the FL was terrible.) Shivaay and Annika have no chemistry, the youngest Rudra and his love interest will be the cute couple, not the hot one ... so far Omkara's love interest Ishaana has appeared in just one episode, and was overacting big time, so not much hope from that one either.
As I said, the brothers' bromance and their bond is the most watchable part of the show ... maybe that's why Gul has gotten unknown female leads.

Kuch Rang Pyaar Ke ... going well, the show continues to be well written with great dialogues, very natural and real ... but oh!!! How I miss Sanaya here! Again a very bad FL, with terrible flat dialogue delivery and blank eyes - she has NO expression in either her eyes or her voice. Am enjoying Shaheer though ... he has improved a lot from Navya days, can see the hard work he has put in ... and Supriya ji is a pleasure to watch as always. It is tough to see her in a grey role ... she makes the over-possessive mother very real and watchable, and relateable. The last episode where she suspects something between Dev and Sona, she is annoyed and restless, tries to avoid talking to Sona, is offhand and dismissive to her without being obviously unpleasant ... so real!!!

Ek Duuje Ke Vaaste ... still watching it ... nothing much to analyse, except to wonder that is Shravan really such a daddy's boy and so dumb that he can't understand the very obvious brainwashing being done by his dad? And Ramnath is as bad as any saas! So the two shows I watch on Sony ... one ML is a mamma's boy, the other is a daddy's boy. The Mamma's boy has more brains as of now, though :)

New show starting on Sony - Bade Bhaiyya Ki Dulhaniya ... the ML is the guy who played Titu ... he is a good actor. Will check out the show.
Also will check out a new show starting on &TV - Tere Bin (or something like that) ... a mature love story about moving on in life.
