Vandana Lalwani who is making a comeback on the show after a long time is donning the kannadian avatar and playing the role of Chinamma’s stepmother, speaks about her character. She said: “I got excited on knowing about this opportunity as I love Kannadian culture. Although it was a challenge for me to get into the character of Vasundhra who is Chinamma's stepmother and doesn't vibe well with her but somehow I perfectly managed to look authentic, and everyone loved it.”
She then continues: “I love their attire and even for the auditions I donned a kanjivaram saree and with gajara which was loved by everybody. Hema ji and Sri Devi ji movies helped me out to catch hold of the accent and give my best.

Randhir kapoor spills secrets
Zee TV's popular singing reality show, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li'l Champs has been winning hearts courtesy the amazing performances by the wonderful contestants. After celebrating the 80's era with Bollywood stars like Amol Palekar and Annu Kapoor, the popular reality show is all set to keep the era of classics alive by welcoming another legend of the Hindi film industry, Randhir Kapoor. In the upcoming episode, while the contestants will leave everyone mesmerised with their iconic performances, Randhir Kapoor will be seen revealing some interesting secrets!
Amongst the various performances put up by the Top 7 Li'l Champs, it was Ranita and Aryananda's performance to Der Na Ho Jaye Kahin from the movie Henna which left everyone spellbound during the shoot. In fact, it took Randhir Kapoor down memory lane as he recalled fond memories that he shares with Rishi Kapoor. While sharing several anecdotes about the movie, he revealed how Henna was originally Raj Kapoor's dream project. As the veteran actor shared: “Henna was indeed Raj Kapoor ji's prodigy and his dream project for years. After his sad demise, when we wanted to make a movie, Rishi and I, followed his path and went ahead with Henna. In fact, we even travelled to Pakistan only to convince Zeba Bakhtiar and get her onboard for the film, which was quite a hassle back in time. Casting for the movie was indeed a task, but somehow we worked through that and started to shoot.”
Furthermore, speaking about the song, the actor added: “Our father was a very punctual man, but Rishi and I did not share this trait with him. When we were young, Rishi was always late and when Papa asked him why he was late, he would reply, ‘Main der karta nahi, der hojati hai' and this phrase was almost like our takia kalam. These incidents led to the song Main der karta nahin and thus the song was made and it was played during the climax of Henna. So it holds a very special place in my heart.”
Sharing several interesting stories and anecdotes, Randhir Kapoor will surely leave the judges, jury and contestants stunned. And while contestant Tanishka Sarkar will be seen delivering a spectacular performance to Dafliwale, Zaid Ali's performance to Hai Agar Dushman will surely win everyone's heart. All in all, the upcoming episode of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li'l Champs will have a lot of melodies, memories and surprises for the viewers.
New twist in baalveer returns
Sony SAB’s fantasy show Baalveer Returns is set to take an unexpected twist as the upcoming episodes promise to put the viewers on the edge of their seats. After nearly being killed by the evil group from Shinkai, Vivaan (Vansh Sayani) and Baalveer (Dev Joshi) commence their hunt for Vivaan’s attacker. The viewers must brace themselves for an exciting turn of events as Baalveer and his team come one step closer in uncovering this new threat on earth.
Baalveer, while saving Vivaan, gets injured and drops unconscious on the stage. Milsa (Shweta Khanduri) makes use of this opportunity and collects a vile of Baalveer’s blood for his plasma and sends it off to Baambaal through Tauba Tauba (Shridhar Watsar). Baalpari (Sharmilee Raj) cures Baalveer through her magic and learns that Baalveer’s blood has been taken by Milsa. Baalpari reveals that a single drop of Baalveer’s blood is really powerful and if it gets into the wrong hands, it can be used to create havoc.
To stop the culprit, Baalveer, Vivaan and Baalpari start their hunt to find Milsa. The team comes one step closer to their mission, as they finally get hold of Milsa – Baambaal’s loyalist. Baalveer and Vivaan force and torture Milsa to reveal the names of her team member and their mission on earth. On the other hand, Baambaal (Vimarsh Roshan) comes to know about Milsa’s capture and realises that he now runs the risk of getting exposed.
Will Milsa reveal their true intention on earth? What will Baalveer and Vivaan do next?
Dev Joshi, essaying the role of Baalveer said: “Veerlok has finally captured Milsa. The upcoming episodes on Baalveer Returns of packed with suspense and twists. The entire week was full of dance and dhamal while the weekends with a shocking plot twist. Our viewers are going to thoroughly enjoy this major twist on the show as one of the evil gang members has finally been captured. It has been exciting to shoot the dance sequences with Anahita, Shoaib and the others as this is not something we often do on the sets. It has been an entirely new and refreshing experience which I will always cherish. So, stay tuned and watch this masti and suspense-filled week unfold only on Baalveer Returns."
Shweta Khanduri, essaying the role of Milsa said: “Essaying a negative role is challenging but I am glad I am playing the role of Milsa. This character has so many shades to her. She is brutal, smart and a go-getter. The episodes further will witness Milsa accomplish a part of Shinkai’s bigger mission and it will be interesting for the viewers to watch how she protects her team members. I have had a blast shooting for these episodes and I hope our viewers enjoy the surprises we have in store for them.
