But I can go on talking about my trio, so let’s come back to Tere Mere Beach Mein. Something wonderful happened last week! Iqbal who was the Main Hoon Nah participant on the Priyanka (Chopra) - Vijender (Singh) episode found his long lost parents, thanks to them spotting him on our show! Just like Iqbal missed his parents, they too never gave up the hope of finding him. An extraordinary story of strength, hope, prayers and a miracle!
We learnt that Iqbal’s father had slipped into coma when he had run away at a tender age of nine and on recovering from coma, has left no stone unturned to find his son - from registering police complaints, placing his picture in missing columns in leading papers for years, searching through all the jails in the country and even going to Dubai coz he had heard that kids are sold there and made to do hard labour and exploited. Can’t think of a happier moment when I got the news - now I know why I decided to do this show in the first place!
Coming to this week’s episodes, John (Abraham) And Yuvraj (Singh) are the celebrity guests on the topic of male eye candy and role reversal of sexes. It’s about how today the man is the object of desire - what a fun! John is my absolute sweety pie, hunky piece of steak, object of desire. This Saturday’s (September 19) episode was actually the first pilot episode we shot months ago - which was then tested and previewed. So really grateful to John and Yuvi for making it so entertaining and getting our show passed.
The Sunday (September 20) episode has Karan (Johar) and Sonam (Kapoor) talking about weight loss and the problems they faced when they were fat. Yes, they were FAT…I know it - coz I was thin in those days! Karan makes for a great guest, I don’t have to do anything - he takes over…
And on a serious note, I read an article that actually bitched about me giving out cheques to our Main Hoon Nah guests - saying how cheap that we’re doing charity on television. Darlings, what have you ever done - on or off TV???
Love and God bless.
