Your favourite TV actors talks about their idea of perfect romantic date..



Romantic dates are mostly planned when you are hoping to win over a new love or just feel like treating your present squeeze. Everyone has his/her own idea of perfect date. We asked your favourite TV actors, what's their idea of perfect romantic date?

Petite Karishma Kotak, who is currently hosting IPL said, “Dinner, nice wine and a sunset is a perfect date according to me.”

When we asked Bidaai girl Sara Khan, who is currently seen as Shalu in 'Junoon - Aisi Nafrat Toh KaisaIshq’ she winked her eyes and said, “Romantic date is basically planning romance intentionally. I feel it should be a strange thing happening sorted, it should be surprising, enchanting and adventurous.” Paras (Chhabra) are you listening?

“Good place, tasty food and music followed by a long drive,” said chocolaty boy Kinshuk Mahajan.

Raj Singh (Manan of ‘Pyaar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyaara Pyaara’) said, “Romantic date according to me is loads of love and care with little bit naughtiness. Romantic date is not only being together in a room or a restaurant, its enjoying blue sky lush green scenery, fishing and cooking together  and of course followed with glasses of wine and sex to the satisfaction. It’s enjoying full moon night on milky white bed beneath black quilt.”

Angad Hasija’s ideal date is always with his wife Pari. He said, “Perfect date according to me is beach side dinner. Beaches outside India are preferred.”  So Angad where are you taking Pari?

“For me Perfect date is where a beautiful evening is spent near a beach side under a moon light. We can have quality talks with little bit sharing of good sense of humour, great food and a glass of Sangria will add to the beauty of the date,” says Archana Taide.

Gorgeous Sonarika Bhadoria, who is gracefully portraying the role of Parvati in Life Ok’s ‘Devon Ke Dev... Mahadev said while blushing, “There’s no such idea of romantic date. I think being wrapped in the arms of the man I love wherever even if it is a parking lot would be a perfect romantic date for me.”

“My idea would be to take my girl to London and walk around near Waterloo next to London Eye because that is the most romantic place I have seen. That is what I’ll be doing soon as my girlfriend stays in London and I am going for an event there,” said Gautam Gulati who is presently seen in Diya Aur Baati Hum.

Uttaran girl Tina Duttasaid, “Rose petals showering as soon we step in. Candle light dinner followed by chocolate brownie. My boyfriend giving me a nice bouquet and a surprise peck on my cheeks makes a date more perfect.”

“Place doesn’t matter as long as you are with the one you really love,” affirms Giaa Manek.

Gautam Rode who is currently seen in Saraswatichandra said, “It should be in an open cafe on top of a hill, with light music playing in the backdrop. And no one else is there besides you and your loved one.”

Cute, bubbly yet shy...Karishma Kotak!

[Article for a Fashion Magazine]


International Model Karishma Kotak became the talk of the town when she entered in Bigg Boss house. This lady with a captivating smile has made a way into too many hearts during her stay in Bigg Boss house.  She was born in Patiala and brought up in London. She has been modelling from the age of 16. She got herself onto the Kingfisher Swimsuit calendar in 2005. Later in 2006 she took part in ‘Lakme Fashion Week’. Karishma made her acting debut in 2007 with ‘Shankardada Zindabad’, a Telugu remake of ‘Lage Raho Munnabhai’.

She was recently seen in one of the most controversial shows “Bigg Boss”. When asked about her experience in Bigg Boss house, she said “Bigg boss has definitely been one of the most interesting experiences of my life. It is like being in a time capsule, you are in your own world with people you don't know and you have no clue what’s happening in the outside world. I had to stay away from my family. I got to meet so many new people and learned new things. It is like vipasana to an extent, no phone, no watch, no calendar, no TV, no internet, no books, no paper, no pen and constantly being monitored by cameras (laughs). I am glad because I survived there for such a long duration.”

She took up Bigg Boss because she wanted money for her dad’s treatment. As it’s much talked reality show in India so it was a good opportunity for her to grab the eye balls. “Bigg Boss came at a point in my life where I needed this push, and it was also an interesting concept,” she added.

Her dad passed away while she was inside the house. Later she came back again soon. Kotak does not have any regret for not being able to be with her father during his last days. “My dad left a small video message for me. He said he is proud of me and also said that the show must go on. It was my father’s wish, he wanted me to stay strong and continue the show. It was undeniably the toughest part of my life, but I don’t regret because I fulfilled my father’s wish.”

When asked about her sense of style, she smiled and said, “My personal sense of style is elegant and quite girly.”  Like others she too did so many fashion goof ups and prefers not to talk about it. “Goof ups happen so many times…it’s better to forget them and move on as sometimes they are quite embarrassing.”

Everyone has something to treasure, their most prized possession. When asked to the tall and svelte model, she flaunted her Jimmy Choo’s handbag and said, “It’s my most esteemed possession. It’s so beautiful, but it’s so heavy and sometimes difficult to carry. Still I just love it.”

She has a fashion fetish but it's not related to clothes or jewelleries. She actually has a fetish for shoes and keeps on adding to her big pile of existing collection. “I have a fetish for Shoes, shoes and shoes! My mom is so fed up of my shoes but I still buy a new pair every now and then and then sneak them in and pretend that they have been around for a while.”

So does she have any guilty indulgence when it comes to style? “Ya ya!! I love getting my nails done and so I get them done at least once in every ten days. So my guilty indulgence would be manicure and pedicure. I consider it as a real treat for myself.”

Rohit Bal, Tarun Tahiliani and Leepakshi Ellawadi are her preferred designers and her favourite shopping destination is London. “I am brought up in London so of course it’s my favourite and most favoured place to shop.”

She had already done some movies in south like ‘In Ghost House Inn’, and after her stint in Bigg Boss she is open to do Bollywood also. “As of now, work has been great after Bigg Boss, so I expect some good work. I am planning to be in Mumbai and do more reality shows, modelling. I have been hosting shows before Bigg Boss, so if I might host a show if get an opportunity. I will grab anything good which comes my way,” signs off the Gujarati gal who can easily be mistaken as a foreigner.

Bigg Boss 6 Contestants List!


Colors most controversial show Bigg Boss 6 is set to roll today (October 7, 2012) at 9 pm prime time, with megastar Salman Khan as the host once again. And while the BB fever hots up, the final list of contestants is being speculated.

The names doing the rounds include comedian Vrajesh Hirjee, separated couple Rajev Paul and Delnaz Irani, starlet Urvashi Dholakia ( Komolika in Kasauti Zindagii Kay), Sayantani Ghosh (last seen as Ichcha Dhari Nagin in Zee TV's 'Mrs Kaushik Ki Paanch Bahuyien') and Aashka Goradia, Bhojpuri actor-singer Dinesh Lal Yadav ‘Nirahua’, UP women vigilantes group Gulabi Gang’s founder-leader Sampat Devi Pal, model Sana Khan('Yeh-Toh-Bada-Toying-Hai' act in an underwear commercial), hairdresser Sapana Bhavnani, Raymond model Niketan Madhok, Kingfisher model Karishma Kotak, controversial cartoonist Aseem Trivedi, cricketing whiz Navjot Singh Sidhu and martial arts expert Kashif Qureshi (the ‘common man’ who is said to have done thousands of daring stunt shows in the country and abroad).

We heard these people have already entered in the house.

When Scrutiny asked Bollywood publicist Dale Bhagwagar about these names, he smiled and quipped, “It would not be right to comment on the confirmed participants before the show rolls, but I have a feeling you have the perfect list.”

Dale is hailed by the media as a specialist on matters about Bigg Boss, for having handled the maximum celebrities on it from time to time. If he says so, the list has to be accurate.


Part of Dale’s controversial BB repertoire includes names like Shilpa Shetty, Rakhi Sawant, Sambhavna Seth, Kashmera Shah, Sherlyn Chopra, Diana Hayden, Shamita Shetty, Pooja Misrra, Vindu Dara Singh, Ashmit Patel, Zulfi Syed, Salil Ankola and Amar Upadhyay.

The PR guru feels, this year, the tilt might be towards light entertainment. “One can easily expect more comedy, song, dance, fun, poetry, emotional upheavals and celebrity patch-ups,” he guesses, though completely ruling out an absence of controversies.

Dale is currently also the publicist and spokesperson to the self-styled godman Swami Nithyananda, speculated to participate on Bigg Boss 6 as a guest, although the publicist refuses to confirm or deny the Swami’s appearance on the show.

Meanwhile, Bhangra-pop sensation Daler Mehndi, who happens to be another earlier client of the public relations specialist, is scheduled to perform at the BB6 launch, before this year’s contestants enter the famed Bigg Boss House. Even the versatile Rani Mukerji is scheduled to participate for the promotions of Aiyya.
