First a confession – Never was so curious and interested in anyone’s marriage or swayavar. But then no marriage was such a non-stop laughathon ever!

And the result is out. Its Dimpy Ganguly from Calcutta. And they can name the pair as Dimpy & Pimpy! Doesnt he look like one with all those kajal and killer sound effect in his laughter! We can also bet that its this pic of Dimpy which did the wonder! He is Rahul Mahajan after all!

So, who is the unlucky Dimpy Ganguly ? She is  21 year old model from Kolkata, West Bengal. According to official release Dimpy gave up a lead role in a film to participate in the Swayamvar. Aur bolo ? Her real name is Soumasri, which means ‘as beautiful as the moon.’ But her cute dimples have earned her the name Dimpy. But this marriage has its share of controversy too. It seems Dimpy had signed a contract with Maureen Wadia’s Gladrags agency and her participation in the show goes against the contract. Click here to know more.

And for Dimpy, here is a marriage gift from our side. Take a look at the pic. Be prepared. Very prepared.

 

Time to get scared! Very scared. Because Rahul Mahajan is back on tv. And this time for his Swayamvar. Its Season2 on NDTV Imagine. As soon as the show was announced, we were busy wondering just one thing – Why would someone want to marry Rahul Mahajan ? We still dont have an answer but have one more question that should explain it. Why would anyone want to marry Rakhi Sawant ?

But who knows, may be there are women who just love S&M! Otherwise, why would anyone want to marry a wife-beater and divorcee who is known for substance use! Its just S & M. So, here is the list of 15 lucky (!?) finalists!  Out of 15, three are from Delhi, three fom West Bengal, two each from Maharashtra, UP & Haryana and one participant each from Jammu, Punjab & Gujrat! Wow, so much love from North for this Marathi Manoos! And no entry from South!

Also, fresh goss from Udaipur has started pouring in. Gossipmongers are saying that the woman who won the contest refused to marry Rahul Mahajan. She wanted to win it for some publicity, quick fame and cash in on it. She ran away from the show. So, the producers of the show are busy planning a re-shoot of the final episode of the show! But isnt that obvious. We can already see the sequel in the making…Mujhe Iss Rahul Se Bachao!

Elesh ParujanwalaAnd we are ROFLOL!  So when was the last time someone’s marriage became BREAKING NEWS ? Just Imagine. And even for the holier-than-thou attitudewala NDTV India! Why blame only India TV ?

We admit we are natural born voyeurs. Could not keep ourselves away from Rakhi Ka Swayamvar finale. And what a show it was! Hand over the entertaining show of the year to Rakhi Ka Swayamvar. We have never been hooked to someone’s marriage so seriously. Intially, it looked like there are only counted few jokers in the world. But today I discovered that family of jokers do exist. The genes are not from some random planet.

So, the mommy, daddy, brother, sister and all the possible relatives turned up at the show to do naach-gaana  for their few seconds of fame and celebrate Rakhi Ka Swayamvar! But the one who caught our attention is Ram Kapoor. In a Lajpat Nagar sherwani which can bounce of light even in a black hole, he looked as if he could easily replace the elephant who is supposed to take out the couple for a post-engagement ride. 

Back to the lucky/unlucky boy of Canada. Elesh Parujanwala is a 30 year old Gujrati businessman based in Toronto. Runs family business and wants to get into entertainment industry in Mumbai. Seems like a perfect match. Rakhi will have deep pocketwala NRI and Elesh will find a getaway for his bollywood aspirations! And NDTV Imagine gets the TRP’s.

Whats next ? The couple plans to spend more time together to figure out if they really gel well or not. And the sati-savitri that Rakhi is, she has made it clear that there will be no physics or biology involved. Only chemistry!

Our suggestion – For second season, NDTV Imagine should go for Rakhi Ka Honeymoon. Canada Tourism will happily sponsor it. And we bet, they dont have to worry about the TRP’s. Or it will be new edition of Lost In Translation with Rakhi’s english and Elesh’s hindi! And who said marriages are made in heaven ? Rakhi has proved everyone wrong. Its made on and for TV! Imagine.

Manas KatyalNo. You must! Manas Katyal ? One of the finalists of Rakhi Ka Sawayvar on NDTV Imgaine. The show that will baffle many generations of sociologists for sure. And Rakhi Sawant surely deserves the Lifetime Achievement Acting Award for this show. Because nobody can fake it better than her. And she also can’t do better than this. You have to watch the videos. With background music from bollwood. It doesn’t get funnier than this. Swayamvar moves to Delhi now. We are hooked and how!

And don’t miss the quote of the year – Item girl bahu hai, bahu item girl nahi hai!

Rakhi SawantLike us, if you are quite  vella and scratching your head wondering WTF is going to happen to Rakhi Sawant after the show Rakhi Ka Swayamvar, we got some fresh goss.

According to Buzz18’s Juicy Mausi, Rakhi Sawant will remain single even after the Swayamvar. It seems there is no clause in the contract which states that she HAS to marry someone at the end of the show.

Rakhi Ka Swayamvar is getting quite lot of balls, oops, eyeballs for obvious reasons and generating good buzz. Also, because of the show, NDTV Imagine has moved from No. 5 potition to No.4, replacing Sony.

In the finale, the contestants will be asked to choose between a large sum of money and Rakhi Sawant. And when they do, Rakhi will throw a fit and walk away! ROFL! Marega…jiyega….shaadi karega….TRP ke liye kuch bhi karega!

Bollywoodpopat also reports the same. According to the report, some astro-numerologist Sandhiya Mehta (kaun hai yeh ?), the show is all fake, only good publicty for Rakhi Sawant and great TRP idea for NDTV Imagine.

Wooohoo…we never Imgine-d that we will write so much about Rakhi Sawant!

BTW, if you are still vella and bored, watch this hilarious video. Its a must watch!

Sony TvIn the GEC segment, if there is one channel whose performance have been consistent, its Sony TV.  It makes space for every new channel and moves one position down. Nobody bothers, no heads roll and it has been going on like this since last few years.

In the last few weeks, Sony has moved to No. 5 position. Courtesy Rakhi Sawant. 1st-2nd is shared between Colors and Zee Tv. Star Plus is at no. 3, NDTV Imagine has move to No. 4 and Sony is at No. 5. For more numbers, click here.

Recently Sony revamped its programming with shows like Bhaskar Bharti, Ladies Special, Palampur Express and Entertainment Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega but the result was the same. Tonite it launches the reality show Iss Jungle Se Mujhe Bachao, the desi version of I’m  a Celebrity…Get me out of Here!

But the big question is…Will it save Sony ? We will get to know tonite. The promos of the show make it look like a fake jungle with tacky production. Its easy to guess that they have shot the promos here. Hopefully the show will look much better.

The format is simple. Survivor meets The Big Boss. 10 celebrities. Malaysia’s Taman Negara National Park. 2 months of adventure. Whoever survives, wins it.

The 10 contestants are Shweta Tiwari (actress), Marc Robinson (model), Aman Verma (actor. host), Akashdeep Sehgal (actor), Anaida (singer), Chetan Hansraj (actor), Ishq Bector (singer), Mona Vasu (actress), Palak (roadies finalist) and Fiza Mohammed (headline hunter. courtesy Chand – A love story). Mini Mathur and Yudi will host the show.

The show goes on air tonite at 22:00 pm.  And every monday to thursday. On fridays, at 9pm. Here is the promo of the show

Luv KhannaAbout half a million (ok..make it lil less) readers are reading our blog everyday looking for some Luv Khanna! We are completely clueless about this Mr Luv or Lust Khanna and so decided to google more about him.

Luv Khanna is 26 year old model & engineer from Delhi. And the reason why people are looking for him is because he is on Rakhi Ka Swayamvar. The tv show on NDTV Imagine. Or its a game show ? Or new season of laughter challenge ? Yeh, think so. Is it for real ? Or scripted ? Whatever. And he is considered to be a strong contender. Those of you who are dying to see more of this Luv Khanna, check out the video. Its a must watch. Don’t miss the last bit. Kalyug ka Ram. We are ROFL!

The show Rakhi Ka Swayamvar goes on air on NDTV Imagine from Monday, June 29th 2009.

rakhisawantWe never believed it. We still dont. 12,515 marriage proposals for Rakhi Sawant ??!! WTF is this ??!! Do we have so many insane men in this country ? Are they all sure that its a marriage proposal and not a fuck buddy proposal ?

When NDTV Imagine announced the show Rakhi Ka Swayamwar, we were ROFL!! Because Rakhi Sawant is drama queen and we love dramas! But this news report gives a new meaning to this drama.

 According to this news report, the city wise break up of the proposals is as follows…

The capital has topped the list of Rakhi’s prospective grooms with 2, 465 entries ( we trust Delhi to be a horny city). Mumbai follows a close second with 1, 980 entries. Most entries are in the broad age group of 18 to 35 ( No rich Daddies??) .

This piece of news should straight go to Ripley’s Believe it or not. We are now waiting for the show to go on air, just to look at the species of men who wants to marry Rakhi. And who knows, Rakhi’s Swayamwar might do the trick for NDTV Imagine. Just imagine!
