[welcomewiki]

Sai Ballal aka Thakur Daroga Singh showcases his presence of mind on the sets of Phulwa by helping out few girls who were attacked by an unruly crowd..


The whole unit of COLORS' and Swastik Pictures' Phulwa had a torrid experience while shooting in place called Pinnat which is situated at the border of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, where the Chambal river intercepts both the states.

It so happened that few female journalists from Mumbai and Delhi were at the place for a promotional activity when the unruly crowd (males) who had gathered to see the shoot from the nearby village went berserk when they saw these girls in jeans and tight Y-shirts. Sai Ballal who portrays the wicked character of Thakur Daroga Singh was the one who actually handled the situation and brought some peace!!

A little birdie states, "Sensing that the girls are in danger, Sai Ballal came running to the spot and asked the journalists to stand very close to him. Seeing Sai's tall, sturdy, violent and aggressive look and baritone voice, the unruly mob immediately stepped back".

"And taking advantage of the situation, Sai Ballal along with co artists Mithil Jain, Gaurav Sharma, and Aniruddh Dave carefully guided these female journalists into the unit car which was parked nearby, and before one could say anything the car was miles away from the savage mob. In this way, the ugly and crude incident was averted", signs off our source.

We contacted the hero on the occasion, Sai Ballal who confirmed the news and said, "It was really a very bad incident and one has to be very smart enough to tackle the situation. I was seeing the whole incident from my car but as soon as these guys started staring at those girls I came out of the car and tried to handle the situation".

Telling about the mentality of those men assembled, Ballal says, "The crowd was as wild and gave an appearance as though they have never seen women in the village. There are only few women who actually get to come out of their houses. So seeing these girls in jeans was a complete rarity for them. Thank God, everything got sorted".

Sigh!! All we can say is 'All's well that ends well'....

COLORS' Phulwa will witness some dramatic scenes when Ramcharan tries his best to prove that Champa is not a witch...


Viewers are witnessing some dramatic scenes in COLORS and Swastik Pictures' Phulwa ever since Champa (Shivani Shurve) has been pronounced as the Daayan.. With the whole village gearing up to put Champa underneath soil and stone her to death, future looks bleak for Phulwa (Jannat Zubair Rahmani) and her family!!

However, in next week's episode, Ramcharan (Gaurav Sharma) will come as Champa's saviour, and he will not only save Champa from the cruel punishment but will also give her a new lease of life..

Our source states, "Ramcharan outwits the entire village and proves to one and all in a dramatic manner that Champa is not a witch. There will be some major drama after which Ramcharan and Champa will run away from the village. The young lad will also wed Champa in a nearby temple, and will take her away".

With this, the focus will shift to Phulwa who will have to fill into Champa's shoes and take care of all the homely responsibilities.

We hear that Champa and Ramcharan's track will not be shown for few episodes. But they are sure to make a comeback after a while.

When contacted, Shivani told us, "Yes, there are some major scenes that will happen when the entire village gathers to stone Champa to death. You will have to watch the episodes as they are really interesting".

Let's see how this track shapes up now…

Jannat Zubair Rahmani aka Phulwa of COLORS' Phulwa has a cute and interesting chat with Tellybuzz...



She is undeniably not just one of the youngest but the biggest Child Star currently on the Indian television. Our beloved Phulwa aka Jannat Zubair Rahmani has surely won the hearts of many with her versatile roles whether it be as Kashi on Imagine or Phulwa on Swastik Pictures' recently launched show on COLORS, Phulwa.

After achieving such incredible success you are bound to wonder, is she yet really a 'kid? Let's find out!

How did the thought of being an actress get into your mind?
My daddy, himself is an actor, and that's how I got attracted towards acting and I have been in the entertainment industry since the last two years. My first TV show was Aladdin, thereafter I have acted in Chand Ke Paar Chalo, Kasturi and Aapki Antara. I enjoy acting a lot.

Were your parents reluctant by any chance as you are very young?
No not at all, in fact, it is my father who taught me everything. He's been guiding me since the last few years and I follow everything what he says. I am in acting because of my daddy.

We would like to know Jannat as a person.
I love to play, study, I am friendly and mix up with people very fast. I have been the same what I am today.

How is Jannat different now?
Jannat jaisi thi, waisi hi hai, there is no difference in me then and now. The only difference is that I get less of free time now, as those are taken away by the hectic shooting schedules. But I love it!

You have done two shows, Kashi and Phulwa in lead roles, what gives you the confidence to take up the integral responsibility of the show on your shoulders?
Mummy and daddy help me a lot and support me in everything that I am doing. I know it's a big responsibility, but I would say that it's not me alone who is responsible because everyone on the sets also help me a lot. They too put in their equal share of hard work for the better output of the show and Siddharth (Tewary) uncle is very encouraging too.

Both the shows deal with very intense issues, does everyone explain you its intensity and do you understand the depth of the subject & concept?
I understand the story and the concept, also the director and producer are always there to help me with my scenes and my role. My daddy helps me to understand the depth of it and tells me what I am supposed to and how. He explains how important it is for me to give a perfect shot not only technically, but also emotionally. And because he is there as my guiding strength, I am never tensed and all my fear vanishes.

What about the 'rona-dhona' scenes, are they easy?
Yes, they are quite easy. If you are in the mood and ready to learn your dialogues properly, to listen to your director carefully and get engrossed in the scene, tears automatically run down your cheeks. But if your mind is diverted in the middle of the briefing, then it is difficult for the emotions to be out and the scene to be enacted.That's why I concentrate on my work and thus I don't find it difficult.

How do you prepare yourself before doing a scene?
I carefully listen to everyone and understand what my scene is and what I have to do. My daddy too explains me and then I give my shot, simple. There is nothing much to prepare, yeh exam thodi hai (Smiles).

The most difficult scene until now?
The underwater scene in Phulwa.

How do you feel when you see yourself on TV?
It feels really great and also my dad is happy about it.

School, tuition and shooting- handling all of these simultaneously, is it tough to manage?
Very quickly she states, 'I don't go for tuitions.' It's not at all tough to manage because everything has a set time. After school, I go on the sets and I complete my homework and worksheets on the sets itself. I get time when my scene is getting ready or during the breaks or when someone else is shooting.

Don't you sometimes feel like going back home and relaxing instead of going through the hectic schedules of shoots?
I love to go on the sets and shoot for my shows; it's never hectic for me, in fact it's fun and I miss them when it is not there.

What does Jannat like to do in her free time?
I like to dance, skate and also cycling.

Which is that one actress you would want to be like in future?
Hmm… Aishwarya Rai

Your favorite actors and actresses?
Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif are my favorite actresses and Shahid Kapoor and Salman Khan are my favorite actors.

What will you do when you meet Salman Khan?
I love Salman Khan and also everyone in my family is a big fan of him. I met him at Bigg Boss Finale, but didn't get much time to talk to him. Mujhe unse bahut saari baatein karni hai. I would love to tell him that he should call me for the auditions in all his films. I also want to tell him that I was offered the role of young Sonakshi Sinha in his movie Dabangg, but because of shooting schedules I couldn't play the role. I have seen all his movies so many times.

Has Jannat faced any crazy fan incidents?
Not crazy, but I did have fan incidents many a times. When we had gone to Chambal for the shoot of Phulwa, we had gone to Agra to see the Taj Mahal. Seeing me, everyone around me started staring at me and calling me Kashi because Phulwa had not been on air then. They also clicked photos with me and took my autographs.

You are watched by lakhs of people; but what are the shows you enjoy watching on television?
Man v/s Wild, Minute to Win it, Wipe Out.

Your favorite cartoons?
Doremon and Tom & Jerry.

What do you aspire to become when you get older?
Actress, I haven't thought of being anything else. I love acting and I want to continue with it even when I grow older.

One thing you really miss because you are a popular face?
I do everything that I used to earlier, so there isn't anything that I miss.

So, on the sets do you get pampered being one of the youngest actresses?
I am the second youngest on the sets and yes, everyone is nice and helpful. I get 5-6 chocolates everyday and I am pampered a lot. In fact, all the kids are equally pampered and loved.

Did you read the story of Phoolan Devi since your show is inspired by her life?
I know briefly about Phoolan devi but my show is not exactly and entirely based on her life. The story is inspired from Phoolan Devi's life as Phulwa, where Phoolan Devi becomes a bandit when she gets older.

Do you sometimes feel bad that people don't call you Jannat?
No, and I feel that they see me as Phulwa which is why they remember me and call me by that name. Phulwa is almost like Jannat, jab scene chal raha hota hai tab mein Phulwa hoti hoon and jab pack up ho jata hai toh Jannat.

Now your brother too will be debuting in a movie, what advice do you give him regarding acting?
(Smiles) I give him the same advice whatever my daddy has taught me and told me.
