Four hours of waiting on the sets of Sinndoor... was worth it! When Gurdeep emerged in her bright pink outfit, with chura (knife) in hand...all hell broke loose!

Gurdeep Kohli: the Babli outfit seems to be in vogue

Zee's Sinndoor, Tere Naam Ka, will see a major twist on 29 June. Its protagonist, played by Gurdeep Kohli will be seen in a double role --- as Devika, the bahu of the Raizada family and as a dancer, Lali.

Gurdeep seemed at ease playing the street smart Lali, but the chura played truant by refusing to flick open. It took a lot of trouble from Gurdeep and a couple of retakes to get the shot canned! Gurdeep just laughed through it all!

Lali looking for her next victim????

The storyline, to accommodate Lali, will take an interesting turn. Dhruv, Devika's husband will have an accident and will be paralysed. Doctors will tell the Raizada family that he can only be saved if Devika comes to his rescue. But unfortunately, their bahu will be in an asylum. One day the family will see a girl resembling Devika dancing at a party --- in a very filmi way -- which will be a blessing in disguise for the family. To save Dhruv, the family pursues Lali to act as Devika.

Didn't we tell you earlier that storylines in tellydom are increasingly going the filmi way?

Sinndoor's Vedika has a double
By: Shaheen Parkar

DR JEKYLL AND MISS HYDE: Gurdip Kohli as Vedika (left) and as Lali (right) in Sinndoor — Tere Naam Ka

Gurdip Kohli has a dual task in the Zee daily Sinndoor — Tere Naam Ka.

As Vedika, she suffers from a phobia (the sight of sindoor makes her go crazy).

Now, the drama will also have her essay a gypsy dancer called Lali. This Babli-inspired character from the film Bunty Aur Babli descends upon the Raizada household to settle scores. Is Lali Vedika's twin?

"That's the element of intrigue," points out producer Kinnari Mehtaa.

"Lali has an important role to play in the lives of the Raizadas," she adds.
Kohli, who is best remembered as Dr Juhi of Sanjivani — A Medical Boon, says, "The character of Lali is as loud as it can get.

It is poles apart from what I have done earlier. Lali will be spotted dancing by Kavita Raizada who takes her home due to her stark resemblance to Vedika."

Sinndoor, a family saga, delves upon the relationship between a mother Kavita Raizada (Tanvi Azmi) and her two sons Dhruv (Sachin Shroff) and Antariksh (Prachin Chauhan). Her daughter-in-law Vedika (Kohli) suffers from an unexplained fear of sindoor.

It is learnt that Lali will appear in the storyline to make Dhruv, who is in a vegetable condition, bounce back to life. Prior to this track change, Sinndoor will have a string of events unfolding.

The drama already has Vedika, who was supposedly back on track, suffering from the sindoor phobia yet again.

On the anvil is a mask party, where Kavita along with Pamela (Usha Bachani) try to uncover who is responsible for Vedika's condition. Later, there will be a Kali puja in which all the women are drenched in sindoor from head to toe.

"This will serve as the high point in the drama. Vedika's dupatta catches fire and the sight of the sindoor makes her condition worse. She goes into a violent fit of madness and is sent to the mental asylum."

Vedika's double whammy will air from the third week of June.

Not item number, but ghoomer dancers

Instead of the mandatory Bollywood item number seen in serials nowadays, Sinndoor — Tera Naam Ka will have a ghoomer dance.

"We have called professional ghoomer dancers from Rajasthan for this purpose," informs producer Kinnari Mehtaa. "It gels well with the show, which highlights the country's culture and beliefs." This episode will be aired on June 16.

Gurdeep dons Babli look

Sinndoor tere naam ka is a serial being telecast on Zee TV at 7.30 pm from Monday to Thursday. Sinndoor is going to portray some of the brilliant colours of Indian culture and tradition this month.

The protagonist is being played by none other than Gurdeep Kohli, who will be seen in the double role as Vedika as the bahu of the Raizada family and as dancer Lali, dressed up like Babli of Bunty Aur Babli . This episode will be telecast on June 29.

Gurdeep is playing a streetsmart girl Lali with ease. The storyline will take an interesting turn. Dhruv, Vedika's husband, will meet with an accident and will be paralysed. Doctors tell the Raizada family that he can only be saved if Vedika comes to his rescue.

However, as part of the story, Vedika, being mentally ill, is admitted to a mental asylum. One night, during a function, the Raizada family (Vedika's in-laws) witness Vedika's lookalike — Lali, a dancer. The family is interested to meet the girl to know more about her as she looks exactly like their bahu, which will be a disguise for the family to save Dhruv, the family pursues Lali to act as Vedika.

A double dose of Gurdeep Kohli
There is twin trouble impending in the Zee daily Sinndoor - Tere Naam Ka. Gurdeep Kohli who plays Vedika the troubled girl in the serial who goes crazy whenever she sees sindoor, now plays a double role. She will also figure as Lali in the same serial. Lali is a gypsy dancer who enters the Raizada household evidently with some sinister motive. According to producer Kinnari Mehtaa, therein lies the mystery.

Sinndoor, centres around a family made up of Tanvi Azmi who plays Kavita Raizada and her two sons Dhruv (Sachin Shroff) and Antariksh (Prachin Chauhan). Her daughter-in-law is Vedika (Gurdeep Kohli). There In films, episodes, Lali wields a strange hold over Dhruv and there is a masked ball where some more drama will unfold. The biggest excitement is a Kali Puja where the sight of women covered in sindoor, drives Vedika over the edge.

Beauty with substance!

I need to look good for myself first, says the attractive telly star, Gurdeep

Women on the telly, be it a saas, a bahu or a VJ, adorn the best clothes, wear the perfect make up and look absolutely stunning. We caught up with one such beauty - Gurdeep Kohli aka Dr. Juhi but minus the make up and the gorgeous costumes. Dressed casually in denims and a white and blue top, Gurdeep spoke about the importance of beauty - in life and relationships.

What beauty means to me...
My definition of beauty is two fold. Firstly, beauty is a state of mind. One needs to be content and happy from within. This automatically makes a person look good. When I am happy, it shows on my face. I feel that I'm looking nice. Even people around me tell me that I'm looking fresh and pretty. Similarly, when I'm in a bad mood it shows on my face. The concept of inner beauty may sound clichd but it has depth and meaning.

Secondly, one needs to look beautiful from the outside also. When I meet someone, the looks attract me first. By good looks I don't mean macho, muscled men or gelled hair. There needs to be something appealing and attractive about the person. The person should have some substance. The way we conduct ourselves in public, the way we talk, behave, the poise, the confidence - all this together can make one look attractive. Besides that, of course things like exercise, the way you take care of your skin, the way you dress up, hygiene, all of these contribute to one's personality.

If I were to spend an evening with someone...
...I would make sure I look beautiful. I need to look good for myself first. If I have to do a bit extra for someone else, I don't mind. So, whether I'm going out with a guy or just meeting friends, I would do everything that will make me look beautiful.

Assuming I have enough time, I'll first make sure I have done my workout in the morning. Then I would go for a body massage, a manicure and a pedicure. I feel small things like well-manicured nails, hair that is washed well and smells good are very important. I would wear a nice dress that complements my body. Wear a lovely perfume, minimum make-up (I don't like too much make up!) and appropriate jewellery. All in all, I'll make sure I look impressive to others.

Looking good is very important to me...
I love dressing up for occasions. I love getting complements! But the key is to not dress up like a doll but to enhance what one is good at. For example, people like my simplicity. They like me more when I am very simply dressed. Mind you, simply but adequately dressed. I'm also a total beauty freak especially when it comes to treatments, spas and salons!

Beauty is important in a relationship...
Again, by beauty I don't mean having beautiful eyes, or a perfect nose, etc. It means being attractive, appealing and presentable. The basic intellect to have a meaningful conversation is very important. After all, these things last much longer than physical beauty. But that doesn't mean we don't take care of ourselves! We should always give ample attention to our bodies. For example, I don't like men who are not well dressed or have potbellies!

So when one is in a relationship, these small things matter a lot. Everyone wants to be with a good looking, presentable and confident person. It only strengthens the relationship further.

Tips for readers...
You don't need to look like a Miss India, but make sure you look presentable. You may be very well read or brilliant at something else. But that doesn't mean you dress shabbily! I am a model and an actor but at I get so impressed by people who are dress well, who have poise, who move around with confidence. All these things will surely make you look beautiful and get you all the attention!

My beauty secrets...
I wear a lot of M.A.C and Make Up Forever. When I'm looking really tired I use the M.A.C Studio Fix and then dab my face with M.A.C powder. I like to do up my eyes with a lot of kajal and mascara. I love silver jewellery and am especially fond of long earrings. My favourite colours are blue and purple and am most comfortable in jeans and tops. My favourite brands remain Gap, Giordano and Diesel.

"Rani meets her Nemesis"

Woh Rehne Walii Mehlon Ki, enter Shilpa (Gulrez Khan aka Aarti of Sindoor), Rani (Reena

Trouble maker: Gulrez Khan

Kapoor) is in for a spate of disasters in the course of the breach of her marriage with Raj (Arjun Punjj). Gulrez, a recent addition to the show plays an ostensibly negative character on the SaharaOne show will be seen wooing Raj and alluring him into her trap.

"I like the look of the serial and I think the negative shade of the character attracted me to it," points Gulrez. The lady seems to be happy with the way her career is shaping up and sounded contented about her part on the show. The actress started out on the small screen playing the lead as Manasha in Zee's Manasha, and went on with Sindoor which is doing pretty well. She also has appeared on Raat Hone ko Hain.

The Sahara mega Project will have some twists and turns and Rani's character will be in for some more grievances. Let's hope this show works in Sahara's ball game of launching big budget television shows. Its earlier attempts such as Sahib Biwi Aur Ghulam and Karishma: The miracle of destiny which didn't live up to speculated expectations. Woh Rehne Walii Mehlon Ki is currently Sahara's trump card with Hare Kaanch Ki Chudiya in the pipeline. Here's wishing luck to Gulrez in her new venture.

Lifebuoy ka jadoo
"I was so nervous that I remember having sweaty palms," reminisces Gurdip Kohli, the stunning doctor of Star Plus' Sanjivani. "It was my first commercial for Lifebuoy soap around four years ago. I was to pose with the soap looking fresh, sparkling and had to show off my pearly smile. I was completely anxious and panicky. But when the commercial finally aired, I saw this beautiful girl and couldn't believe it was me. I was looking so different and gorgeous that my happiness knew no bounds. It was like Gurdip has arrived and people appreciated my performance. After all lifebuoy hai jahan tanduroosti hai vahan," she giggles.

Cool babe, Gurdip
Gurdip Kohli has no qualms as Cinevistaas' Sanjivani- A Medical Boon enters its last stages. The petite beauty (Lucky Arjun Punj!) has sufficient offers in her kitty. We know of at least two. Le Jayenge Le Jayenge by Contiloe Films is one and Cinevistaas' forthcoming Sujata (tentative title) is another. We have a feeling, Gurdip might just opt for the latter. Let's see.

Gurdip ready for Sinndoor
By: Shaheen Parkar

Gurdip Kohli in Sinndoor — Tere Naam Ka

For the last three years, Gurdip Kohli has been playing the charming Dr Juhi in Sanjivani — A Medical Boon (Star Plus).

At the end of the month, however, this weekly soap goes off air. Next on Gurdip's platter is Jay Mehtaa's family saga Sinndoor — Tere Naam Ka, which deals with the relationship between a mother, her two sons and her daughter-in-law (Kohli), who has a fear of sindoor.

This daily show will air on Zee TV from March 21 at 7.30 pm. While shooting at Film City, Kohli talks about the new show and her beau,
co-star Arjun Punj (Dr Aman of Sanjivani).

Arjun Punj

Sinndoor has me dolled up
All this while, I was a doctor in a white coat. In Sinndoor, I am dressed to the hilt. I will be seen mostly in saris and lots of jewellery as I play a daughter-in-law. So in that sense, it is a drastic change for me. My character, Vedika, suffers from a phobia of sindoor.

As soon as she spots it, she gets fits and falls unconscious. This character is like a child woman. I am not resorting to any overt physical gestures. Vedika is like any other person except when the phobia strikes her.

I prefer doing only one show at a time
Sanjivani was a weekly, yet I did not take on any other assignments, as I wanted to give it my best shot. It was my debut show. Now, I am getting a taste of a daily show, so I really don't know how much time will be left.

Sanjivani's Dr Aman (Arjun Punj) is the one
I met him two years ago on the sets of Sanjivani. His role as Dr Aman had a negative streak, so whenever we used to hang out people, would tell me to stay away from him!

They probably thought he would cause me harm. We do plan to get married, most probably next year. It's just that we were so tied up with our assignments that we had to put it on hold.

When I get married, I want it to be a grand affair. I will take time off to prepare for it. We will hold our wedding celebrations in both Mumbai and Delhi, as our families are there.

I am dying to do comedy!
That's one role I'm looking forward to, as I feel it's something I can do. In Sanjivani, there were many tracks — a medical drama that became a love angle and then a terrorist angle. I enjoyed Sanjivani and will miss doing the show. In Sinndoor, viewers will see me in a drastically different role. Hopefully then, someone will offer me a comedy show!

Jay's take

Jay Mehtaa

Actor-turned-producer Jay Mehtaa, best known for his film Muskurahat, has produced Sinndoor — Tere Naam Ka.

Mehtaa had earlier produced serials like Jung (Doordarshan), Zara Suniyo Toh (SaharaOne) and Mujhe Dor Koi Kheeche (Zee). His soap Kkanch currently airs on DD.

Son of producer Pranlal Mehta (who made films like Kinara, Bezubaan and 100 Days), Mehtaa Jr says his stint with acting is over. " I have attuned myself to production aspects now."

The Mehtaas' last production was Tarkieb. "We are looking at another film which will roll soon," he says.
