With love, from
Shanti
First there was a serial and
now there's a talk-show. In a move aimed at extending the franchise of its
flagship brand, Shanti, UTV has flagged off a talk-show bearing the name
of their most famous heroine. Aap Ki Shanti, India's first daily women-based
talk show, airs on DD's northern circuit, features women from various walks
of life, and portrays their many
shades.

NATASHA SINHA
"I was destined for television"
Bollywood is her past; Tellywood is her present.
A Dev Anand discovery, hers was a case of came and gone. Not because she
was not a glam-babe or lacked histrionics, but because her films bombed.
She retreated from the make-believe world of Bollywood for a few years and
finally television, like in the case of many a cinema failure, came to Natasha
Sinha's rescue and gave her name, fame and due recognition as an
actress.

STAR Plus'
Prime-time queen
Nirja Guleri, of Prime Channel, is back in the
thick of things. After 18 months of fighting court battles over Chandrakanta,
Nirja has three programmes in the pipe-line, including a talk show to be
hosted by Jaya Bachchan. And there's a thriller and a daily soap waiting
to hit the small screen.
