				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mumbai: Bigg Boss has done miracle to many sagging careers  be it Arman Kohli, Ashutosh Rana or Kushal Tondon.  Actress Minissha Lamba&#8217;s entry has surprised many in the circle. Though, she is a reknowned face in the Bollywood circuit, but many people are not able to digest her entry. Minisha Lamba is unperturbed over this and determined to do well.  &#8220;Bigg Boss&#8221; is a reality show where different celebrities are made to live with each other in a confined space for three months under constant scrutiny from multiple cameras and without any contact with the outside world.Its eighth season began Sunday, and Minissha happens to be one of the 12 contestants this year. Natasha Stankovik and Karishma Tanna are other popular female contestants in the show.</p>
<p><strong>Does she have an agenda?</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;All these things I would talk on the <a title="Natasa Stankovik: Oomh factor in Big Boss 8" href="/en/?p=700&amp;preview=true" target="_blank">show </a>&#8211; why I am doing this and all&#8230;There are multiple reasons on why I am going on this show&#8230;at some point, may be I will discuss it on the show. I&#8217;d like to keep some stuff for the show,&#8221; Minissha had told IANS before heading to get locked into the &#8216;house&#8217;.</p>
<p>She assured that she&#8217;s not going to the show with an agenda.</p>
<p>&#8220;When &#8216;Bigg Boss&#8217; ends for me, I will consider it as a chapter of my life that&#8217;s behind me. I have watched season six and seven closely, and yes it&#8217;s a highly entertaining show. It&#8217;s the most entertaining show I have ever watched,&#8221; added the actress, seen in films like &#8220;Yahaan&#8221;, &#8220;Bachna Ae Haseeno&#8221; and &#8220;Kidnap&#8221;.</p>
<p>Minissha says &#8220;Bigg Boss&#8221; is not scripted, and all the drama in it is for real.</p>
<p>&#8220;Honestly, from being an actor and knowing the things I know,certain situations and things can&#8217;t be created. They just happen.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not possible to script (such a show) because they can&#8217;t put many good actors in one show who will follow their lines,&#8221; she explained.</p>
<p>The 29-year-old also says she understands the game of TV ratings well and especially that if the audienc egets bored, they will simply switch the channel.</p>
<p>&#8220;You have to give something entertaining and gripping. If people are put in a realistic and highly pressurised situation, it is natural for a person to act out of character at times, so nothing wrong with that (if it happens in &#8216;Bigg Boss&#8217;.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mumbai: The past few seasons of &#8220;Bigg Boss&#8221; saw participation from a slew of celebrities in the pursuit of resurrecting their professional life. But Karishma Tanna, who is a contestant in the reality show&#8217;s eighth season, says she&#8217;s not a “jobless actress” who has entered the show to “revive her career.”</p>
<p>“I&#8217;m not some jobless actor who has come to the house to revive my career. I&#8217;ll go back and I&#8217;ll have a lot of work to do,” Karishma told over phone from Mumbai before entering the show, which went on air Sunday.</p>
<p>The contestants have to stay confined in a specific house for around three months without any connect with the outer world. And this year, the show is exploring a unique aviation theme.</p>
<p>Karishma has been a popular TV actress, courtesy shows like &#8220;Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi&#8221; and &#8220;Koi Dil Mein Hain&#8221;, and on the big screen, she was seen in adult sex comedy “Grand Masti”. Currently, she has films like &#8220;Tina and Lolo&#8221; as well as a southern film in her kitty.</p>
<p>So how does she plan to manage the three-month break?</p>
<p>“All the movies that I have taken up either release or start shooting next year. I decided to enter the house as I was free for these three months,” she said.</p>
<p>The actress had once turned down the offer of featuring in &#8220;Bigg Boss&#8221;, but this year she decided to take the plunge to “experience the life inside the house that&#8217;s known for its twists and turns”.</p>
<p>“Along with the experience, I also wanted to overcome my fear of staying without my phone, my family and being disconnected with the world. And not to forget the gruelling task of dealing with so many contestants and politics inside the house,” she said.</p>
<p>The show is also known for its infamous controversies. And this was also one of the reasons why Karishma earlier refrained from becoming a part of the show.</p>
<p>“Negative publicity stopped me from taking up the show. But now I wanted to take this as a challenge. No matter what the consequences are (positive or negative), I will take it with dignity,” Karishma said.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mumbai: Music maestro A.R. Rahman, who acted in TV show &#8220;Wonder Balloon&#8221; in 1980, is back on television, but this time as a composer for Ashutosh Gowariker&#8217;s show &#8220;EVEREST&#8221;. He says in the last 34 years, the medium has become very big.</p>
<p>&#8220;I started with &#8216;Wonder Balloon&#8217;. Since then, television has changed a lot. It has become so big&#8230; It has high-definition now,&#8221; the Oscar-winning composer said here Tuesday at the promo and poster launch of &#8220;EVEREST&#8221;.</p>
<p>Rahman, who had earlier collaborated with Gowariker for his movies like &#8220;Lagaan&#8221;, &#8220;Jodhaa Akbar&#8221; and &#8220;Swades&#8221;, will now compose for the TV show, produced and written by the filmmaker.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ashutosh has given me so many good songs in his movies. It is a great start for me with Ashutosh and Star Plus,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ashutosh came to me with a concept, which was so intriguing and beautiful. He has briefed me about 12 characters. In fact, we finished the theme song three days back. We have tried to make it very orchestral,&#8221; he added.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kolkata: Octogenarian singer Asha Bhosle Monday said musical reality shows bring out talented crooners, but they fail to churn out solid playback singers.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think there are good singers that come out from those shows but no playback singers. I think reality shows give them a platform to do stage shows&#8230; they come to do shows but not playback singing.</p>
<p>&#8220;It takes a lot to become a playback singer and they (playback singers) are a different lot. Their brains function in a different way,&#8221; she told reporters here on the sidelines of an event.</p>
<p>She was in the city to launch the Bengali music album &#8220;Pancham Tumi Kothay&#8221;.</p>
<p>Launched by Saregama, the album is a bouquet of eight songs selected by Bhosle which were originally sung by her late composer Rahuld Dev Burman aka Pancham da. They have been re-recorded by Bhosle and the album is pegged as a Durga puja special album.</p>
<p>&#8220;We used to work so hard and therefore, we could churn out so many songs. There wasn&#8217;t anytime for doing shows in our time as we used to be so busy,&#8221; said the Padma Vibhushan awardee who has apparently crooned more than 12,000 songs in multiple languages.</p>
<p>The 81-year-old crooner recalled how during her time, singers used to listen to the composers and try to &#8220;catch&#8221; the tune directly from their sessions.</p>
<p>However, she lamented, today, even after listening to songs multiple times, aspirants can&#8217;t get the right tune.</p>
<p>&#8220;Even after listening to songs 10 to 15 times if they can&#8217;t get it right then they are of no use. We used to learn directly from the composer. Besides, the music directors today do not sing that well themselves. In our time, all the music directors (like Madan Mohan etc.) used to sing very well,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>Asha, the younger sister of legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar, has sung for actresses of black and while era like Madhubala, Helen and Asha Parek as well as the new-age heroines like Urmila Matondkar and Kareena Kapoor.</p>
<p>What pains her is the way the classics are replicated and given a modern spin that essential &#8220;ruins&#8221; (&#8220;bigaad dete hain&#8221;) the original.</p>
<p>&#8220;We had sung the songs with a lot of hard work and a lot of effort went in for the rehearsals. After that effort, the songs became hits and ran for a long time.</p>
<p>&#8220;So when somebody ruins the compositions through remixes (bigaad dete hain) I feel very bad. Especially when somebody does it to Lata di&#8217;s songs or Kishore da&#8217;s songs&#8230;I feel anguished. When they sing our songs like that I wonder why do they do it ? Nobody has the voice of Kishore da&#8230; ,&#8221; she said.A</p>
<p>&#8220;Aaiye meherban&#8221;, &#8220;Jaaiye aap kahan&#8221;, &#8220;Raat akeli hai&#8221;, &#8220;Piya tu ab toh aaja&#8221;, &#8220;Dum maaro dum&#8221;, &#8220;Dil cheez kya hai&#8221; are &#8220;Yayi re yayi re&#8221; are some of her memorable numbers.</p>
<p>She performs live on stage till date and took to the stage at a packed show in Paris earlier this year.</p>
