Anita Hassanandani And Rohit Reddy Head To Goa For Nach Baliye 9 Rehearsals

Being a part of a high-energy dance reality show for a non-dancer could get quite hectic and depleting. With 8 to 9 hours of rehearsals per day, multiple bruises, learning new dance forms in a span of a few days, performance pressure and votings can all get quite distressing for contestants.

Anita Hassanandani and Rohit Reddy who are currently participating in Nach Baliye 9 have been pushing themselves each week with their acts. From fighting jaundice, performing on ice, trying their hands on pole dance the couple has left no stone unturned to give their absolute best on stage. The duo has gone beyond being just contestants on the show and had organized contests for their fans to be a part of their journey and now they plan to take their choreography team to Goa for a location and mood change owing to the hectic schedule of the celebrity dance reality show.

The team that has become like family in the last two months plan to unwind themselves in Goa. However, the three day trip to Goa won’t be all fun and games as the team has bigger intentions to rehearse and come back with a bang with their moods lifted and minds relaxed. Anita Hassanandani took to her Instagram stories to share details of the trip saying, “We’ve been so exhausted, we’ve been rehearsing for 8-9 hours a day. So this week we are doing something really cool, just for a little location switch and just to try coming back with a bang, we have decided to go to Goa for 3 days with our team. We are taking our team to Goa and we are going to rehearse there and hopefully, we are going to prepare a great performance. I think a little mood change in a reality show like this really helps. We are really excited, I am going to share as many pictures and videos as I can from Goa.”

It’s rightly said that, ‘All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy!’. We wish the couple a happy journey and we look forward to all the exciting pictures and videos from the trip.

Hina Khan Goes Blind For Her Next, A Indo-Hollywood Film

 


Hina Khan has become a name to ‘reckon’ with in the recent times as she has broken all stereotypes and been climbing from one ladder to another, the most recent being her debut at the Cannes Film Festival.  Hina is now all set now to take her next step in the 'global market' as she will be seen starring in an Indo-Hollywood Film based on the famous novel The Country of the Blind, making it officially her first international project. The film titled Country of Blind, based on the very popular book by H.G.Wells, is directed by Rahat Kazmi and has been shot in the Himalayas and is a story set in the 1800s about the inhabitants of a valley who have no vision and yet are living a fulfilled and secluded life without any attachments to the outside world.  Hina for the first time will be seen playing the character of a blind girl who belongs to this unique valley.  Hollywood producer Cory Tucek has come on board ensuring that the film will have a US release before it is released globally.   

Our source informs us, “While Hina is the main female protagonist in the film, actor Shoib Nikash Shah has been cast opposite her while Inaamul Haq, Airlift and Filmistaan fame, will be seen as the main antagonist.  The look of each of the actors will be extremely interesting as they will be seen wearing unique hand made costumes.”  The film is being shot both in Hindi as well as in English simultaneously. 

When we reached out to Hina she confirmed saying, “This project is very close to my heart because whatever we did in this film has been a new benchmark and thr were no examples of any kind as a reference.. everything in this film is one of kind and we hope people will love it..” 

The film is produced by Rahat Kazmi Films and Tariq Khan Productions, Co-Production of Hiro’s Faar Better Films & Turn Key Films (USA)

Immortal Milo Na Tum is a sure shot chartbuster – Govinda

With the whole new music remake scene taking over, the latest music video remake on the block is Hitendra Kapopara’s Milo Na Tum, sung and composed by Gajendra Verma, also starring the singer-composer along with actor Tina Ahuja. Tina’s father, superstar Govinda made his presence felt to support his daughter’s latest project!

Govinda avers, “Apart from Tina, I knew singer-composer Gajendra Verma, director Aman Prajapat and producer Hitendra Kapopara from before. I knew that the project will be a good one. But, I admit, when I saw the video, I was floored. Milo Na Tum is diametrically different from the albums you see on the television today. Most of them are so similar that they could well belong to the same family.

Milo Na Tum is an immortal classic with evergreen lyrics and a sure shot chartbuster. The video is international. The performance is good and the song and composition grows on you. Hitendra Kapopara has not scrounged on the budgets. He has also styled project very well, and the styling comes across effortlessly. Tina looks very good and has performed very well. I am not saying this just as a father.”

Clovia’s New Collection Launch Flaunted all Stripes and Lacy, Inaugurated By Tina Dutta

Mumbai, September 07 2019

If anyone can unbox the traditional Indian bahu and discover a trendy, even sassy, young woman, inside that skin, then the applause must go to Clovia, India’s fastest-growing lingerie and sleepwear label. This life-affirming feat was performed by TV actor and celebrity Tina Dutta, who added a whole new dimension to Clovia’s new #HappyIsMySuperpower collection, which was launched in Mumbai on 31st August, 2019.

Dressed in an all-striped top from Clovia’s new nightwear line, which she smartly paired with high-waisted pants and a long jacket, Tina, TV celebrity from Colors channel and the lead in Uttaran, demonstrated that even sleepwear from India’s most popular innerwear brand can be cool and classy.

Clovia’s new #HappyIsMySuperpower collection encourages women to rise above themselves and let nothing hold them back. And ushering in this brave new world for women is Nidhi Uttam, a Starplus bahu, who launched the brand’s new line at Drinkery 51 at Bandra (East) in Mumbai on Saturday. 

But the showstopper of the evening was Clovia’s new collection of nightwear, swimwear, and bralettes in a range of stripes and pop-up colours in fabrics that ranged from polyanids, nylon-spandex to lace. Walking at the launch for Clovia’s hot and happening innerwear were models Nikita Kat and Sucheta Singh, decked in a colour palette that included calming pastels as well as bright neons. 

Clovia is not only strutting a new collection of innerwear, its new shapewear and sleepwear line is also urging women to liberate their true inner selves. This was the theme at an interactive session hosted by Swati Kumar, who made the connection between innerwear and women power. The discussion also had Tina and Nidhi expressing their views on Clovia and their favourite pick from the label’s new line, which was covered by reporters and fashion bloggers invited to the event.

‘Exuberant’, ‘exciting’ and ‘buoyant’ sums up Clovia’s #HappyIsMySuperpower, which mirrors the fearless woman of today. India’s hottest innerwear label clearly believes that the future is female.

conversations – both during the KAM Summit and hopefully after - between
all of them.”
