भारतीय भाषाओँ हिंदी, तेलुगु, तमिल, कन्नड़, मलयालम, पंजाबी, आदि की फिल्मो के बारे में जानकारी आवश्यक क्यों है ? हॉलीवुड की फिल्मों का भी बड़ा प्रभाव है. उस पर डिजिटल माध्यम ने मनोरंजन की दुनिया में क्रांति ला दी है. इसलिए इन सब के बारे में जानना आवश्यक है. फिल्म ही फिल्म इन सब की जानकारी देने का ऐसा ही एक प्रयास है.
टीवी सीरियलों की लोकप्रिय अभिनेत्री जेनिफर विंगेट, ऑल्ट बालाजी
की वेब सीरीज कोड एम में एक सैन्य अधिकारी की भूमिका में दिखाई देंगी। इस भूमिका में, जेनिफर को एक्शन और इमोशन तेवर दिखाने
होंगे। शो में काफी ऐसे दृश्य बताये गए
हैं, जो काफी
खतरनाक है। लेकिन, यह शो
जेनिफर के अभिनय करियर को नई दिशा देने वाला है।
यह जेनिफर का पहला डिजिटल प्रोजेक्ट है।
आमिर खान की
फिल्म से करियर की शुरुआत
कभी फिल्मों में आमिर खान, मनीषा कोइराला, रानी
मुख़र्जी, ऐश्वर्या
राय बच्चन और अभिषेक बच्चन के साथ काम कर चुकी, जेनिफर की पहचान टीवी सीरियलों से बनी। शाका
लाका बूम बूम से अपने टीवी करियर की शुरुआत करने वाली जेनिफर ने एकता कपूर के शो
कसौटी ज़िन्दगी की में ऋषभ बजाज की बेटी स्नेहा बजाज की भूमिका से पहचाना
बनाई। उन्हें आज भी स्नेहा बजाज के अलावा
सरस्वतीचंद्र की कुमुद,
बेहद की माया मल्होत्रा और बेपनाह की ज़ोया सिद्दीक़ी के किरदारों से याद
किया जाता है। इस समय भी उनका शो बेहद २ प्रसारित हो रहा है।
नेटफ्लिक्स
पर स्ट्रीम हुई ‘फिर से’
जेनिफर की फ़िल्में कभी नहीं सफल
हो पाई। अब चाहे वह अकेले हम अकेले तुम हो
या राजा की आएगी बरात या फिर कुछ न कहो, सभी फिल्मों को असफलता हाथ लगी। कुणाल कोहली के साथ उनकी फिल्म फिर से
सिनेमाघरों में प्रदर्शित नहीं हो सकी। २०१५ से रिलीज़ की बात जोह रही फिर से को
२०१८ में नेटफ्लिक्स पर स्ट्रीम होना पड़ा।
अब डिजिटल
प्लेटफार्म पर
शायद डिजिटल प्लेटफार्म की सफलता को भांपते हुए ही जेनिफर ने डिजिटल
प्लेटफार्म पर अपना भाग्य आजमाने का फैसला किया है। वह ऑल्ट बालाजी के शो कोड एम में मेजर मोनिका
मेहरा की भूमिका से इसकी शुरुआत करने जा रही है।
इस सीरीज में जेनिफर के अलावा रजत कपूर, तनुज विरवानी और सीमा बिस्वास भी हैं। इस शो की शुरुआत ज़ी५ पर २०२० में किसी समय होगी ।
Whilst
shooting for a horror show, the person is bound to get a little nervous and
spooked out. While shooting for ALTBalaji’s and ZEE5’s biggest Horrex

who is seen playing an important character in the series was spooked out, as
his co-stars played a supernatural prank on him. On the last day of the shoot,
when he returned to his room post a quick shower all sorts of paranormal
activities like shaking of the bed, opening of the curtains and scary noises
were made to scare him out of his room. He was so terrified that he yelled
calling the security to save him from the torture.
Talking
about this hilarious prank being played on him, Mohit quipped, “I do not
believe in supernatural powers or ghostly activities, but the vibe of the show
makes you believe in one. When I entered the room post shower, the bed started
shaking and I heard some scary noises which aggravated my fears to which I ran
straight out of my room crying for help. I couldn’t sleep the whole night
thinking about the same, which only later I got to know that it was a prank.
Now when I think about it, it brings a good laugh to me!”

ALTBalaji, India’s leading homegrown OTT platform,
has earned a reputation for introducing original soundtracks in its web series
in recent times. It all started with the first season of Broken…But Beautiful
that won hearts aplenty owing to some lilting melodies. With fans eagerly
awaiting the release of the highly-anticipated second season that is set to
stream on the ALTBalaji and ZEE5 app, the two powerhouses have now given them
one more reason to be excited. This time, the popular Malik brothers duo-Amaal and Armaan Malik are roped in to
compose and croon a romantic melody titled Shaamein for the Vikrant Massey and
Harleen Sethi starrer. It’s the first time that they’ve collaborated for a show
on the digital space and such is the setting behind the song, that one will feel
like surrendering themselves to the overwhelming feeling of being in love.
Speaking about Shaamein, Amaal Malik commented,
“It’s indeed a proud moment for the both of us.Our previous collaboration with
Ekta ma’am was a monster hit : Bol Do Na Zara (Azhar). But now the best
entertainment content has come to the web. Niraj & Sarita along with the
director Harsh Dedhia suggested my name to the Alt Balaji Team for this song
and I’m glad I am on board and creating music for a new format and a newer
audience. I love Ekta ma’am’s zest for new content and good music. and it’s an
honour for me to compose & produce a song for such a popular series, that
has been penned by Manoj Muntashir & rendered by Armaan. We knew that the
songs from the first season specially ‘Laute Nahi’ was immensely popular and
hence to meet these high standards, I had to come up with a melody of a similar
if not higher calibre. Broken…But Beautiful, is built on the feeling of love
and the emotions that two people are feeling.There’s no better language than music to express love and we hope that
the fans of the show & our fans have another track that they will simply
enjoy & fall in love with, in just a single listen.”
Adding to the singing experience, Armaan said,
“I’m elated that the makers chose me to sing this song. I have done my very
best in singing ‘Shaamein’ which Amaal has composed beautifully. The song says
everything that words cannot express which I feel will add more depth and
emotion to the show. I hope Broken…But Beautiful 2 goes on to be a resounding
success and I’m glad to have played a small role in it.”
With a track from the web series, Teri Hogaiyaan,
already winning hearts aplenty, we can’t wait to see what the brothers have in
store with Shaamein!

लगते हैं। इसका औचित्य समझ से बाहर है।

is finally over as this much-awaited tantalizing thriller launched 10 episodes today for binge-watch, amidst immense excitement.
Actors Rajeev Siddhartha and Priya
Banerjee will be seen in the lead roles as Kiyaan and Kashti respectively,
while the gorgeous Madhu Sneha Upadhyay looks very impressive playing the
character of a progressive, yet culturally deep-rooted Indian girl. After
playing a rich brat in her recent family drama “Baarish”, Priya Banerjee will
be seen playing the role of a seductive stalker, a complete departure from her
previous outing. While Rajeev Siddhartha will be playing the role of a successful
writer of erotic fiction, who on the surface is humble, self-effacing and
charming but it’s just a facade. Madhu Sneha Upadhyay is playing the role of a
progressive Indian girl who has a traditional side to her and respects her
parents, family, and customs. This show is full of thrills, mystery and lies
with lots of twists & turns which will keep you hooked to your screens.
ALTBalaji’s latest offering Baarish- When you are in mood for
romance is all set to bring the
old-school monsoon romance back in this summer heat. Seeking the quintessential
love saga, audiences can be rest assured for an epic tale of love, family, and
drama. With the trailer already having created a storm, viewers are in for an
awesome-mausam treat as veteran actor Sharman Joshi and the ever-elegant Asha
Negi make their digital debuts with the much-awaited show.
The rain playing a pivotal role in this
romance-drama, Baarish showcases the hardships of maintaining relationships and
how the imperfect love story of Anuj (Sharman) and Gauravi (Asha) is defined by
their responsibilities towards their respective families. The narrative between
a Gujarati diamond merchant and a simple Marathi Mulgi entails the challenging
journey of love and respect. As society continues to keep its prying eyes on
any couple, the situation makes it more difficult for Gauravi working under
Anuj as his employee. With their family being of utmost importance to the two,
sacrifices and decisions by them lead to the pair getting married and their
fate being decided. The series shows how marriages can be arranged but love
can’t. Love grows gradually and slowly with each moment and day spent together.
Unfortunately, in their case love gets shadowed by misunderstandings, leading
the couple to part ways at the juncture when they had begun to bond as a
couple.
Speaking about her very first production in the
digital space with 24 Frames Media,
Bhairavi Raichura quipped, “I am extremely exhilarated as it is the first time
ever I am producing a web show. Everybody likes the feeling of love and Baarish

love-story“

showering love from everywhere and I feel blessed to have been a part of this
project. It has been a beautiful journey throughout and I cannot wait to hear
what the audience has to say after watching our quaint show.”
An unusual tale of a middle-class girl and a rich
businessman, Baarish embraces the complexities of life. With a host of emotions
running high, the series aims to strike the right chord with the viewers. Starring
a talented ensemble of cast including Priya Banerjee, Vikram Singh Chauhan,

दो महीने पहले, खुद अन्वेषी जैन (Anveshi Jain) को मालूम नहीं था कि उन्हें वह शोहरत मिलने जा
रही है, जिसका इंतज़ार बड़ी बड़ी सेलेब्रिटी को रहता है।
दो महीने पहले, अन्वेषी ने गन्दी बात की थी। आज के बदलते माहौल में, स्त्री-पुरुष के संबंधों की जटिलता को दर्शाने वाले ऑल्टबालाजी के शो गन्दी बात २ में अन्वेषी जैन ने नीता की भूमिका की थी।
इस शो के स्ट्रीम होते
ही, अन्वेषी भी गूगल पर सर्च की जाने लगी। एक डेटा एनालिटिक्स एजेंसी द्वारा किये
गए विश्लेषण के अनुसार, पिछले महीने गूगल सर्च इंजन पर सबसे ज्यादा खोजी जाने वाली
सेलेब्रिटी में, अन्वेषी जैन टॉप पर थी।
उन्हें गूगल पर, पिछले २५ दिनों में, डेस्क
टॉप पर २ करोड़ तथा मोबाइल फ़ोन पर १ करोड़ बार उनके परिचय को हिट किया गया।
इतना ही
नहीं, अन्वेषी सोशल मीडिया पर भी सनसनी बन कर छा गई। इंस्टाग्राम पर उनके फॉलोवर्स की संख्या १८ हजार से बढ़ कर १.९० लाख हो गई। इतने कम समय में इतने
ज्यादा फॉलोवर्स बनना विरल घटना थी।
इतनी लोकप्रियता के बावजूद, अन्वेषी संतुष्ट
नहीं है। वह लगातार कुछ करती रहना चाहती हैं। एक वेब सीरीज के लिए अन्वेषी की
नेटफ्लिक्स से बातचीत चल रही है। एक तमिल फिल्म और कुछ म्यूजिक विडियो में भी काम
करने जा रही हैं।
