‘Bus Itna Sa Khwab’ is originally a Marathi play called Dhyanimani. This play is directed in Hindi by famous Marathi Film Maker & Theatre Director, who had actually directed the original play Dhyanimani, Chandrakant Kulkarni. It was premiered on 15th Aug, 2010 at Rangsharda Auditorium in Mumbai for the first time followed by the second show on 22nd August, 10 at the same venue. Vipul is the presenter of the play, Shifaali Shah the female lead and Kiran Karmarkar is the male lead. It also casts Adhir Bhat, Abir Abrar and master Mohit.

Vipul has been a part of four plays before this and intends to be more active now. “I was eagerly waiting for the feedback of the audience outside the auditorium coz all the cast has done great job and they deserved a round of applause for their hard work. I know for sure that this play will set the bars high for theatre. Since its opening we have seen a great support by the audience and ofcourse our film fraternity. I thank them all for all their love and respect they have showered.” says Vipul.

Vipul offered Shifaali two-three plays before they got married to him, but Shifaali’s busy schedule did not permit her to be a part of those. Shifaali herself was very excited to be back on stage and the fact that it is the first play that both husband and wife are a part of. “I had started my acting career with theatre. And then TV happened, then movies, then marriage and then kids. And this is why theatre took a backseat for 10 years. Unlike movies, theatre is an excessively demanding platform. You have to be 100 per cent committed here and can’t give excuses like, ‘today my kid is not well and I need to spend some time with my family’. Also in these 10 years nothing great came my way. But now I am ready to give my 100 per cent to it and this is when Vipul and I thought that we should approach Chandrakant Kulkarni, the director of the original Marathi version, and ask him if he is interested in making a Hindi version of it. This was one of the best plays of its time and for an actress this play is a treat. I couldn’t have thought of a better play for a comeback. I am playing Shalini’s character which has got so many layers to it. She’s the most relatable woman and yet she can surprise you. My challenge is to portray her in a way that everyone can identify with her. Imagine, there are pages and pages of soliloquy which I am still struggling with! Also the support that our film fraternity has shown us is just so touching. I am very thankful to them.”

Dhyanimani is a Marathi play that was showcased for the first time ever, 15 years back. It is a socio-psychological thriller. It talks about the purpose of life and how reality is replaced by illusions. Kulkarni had directed this play 15 years ago as well and had got a lot of accolades for it. “This play was written by Prashant Dalvi and we had shown 500 shows of this play at that time. When Vipul and Shifaali approached me to direct the Hindi version, I was very happy and immediately accepted the offer. We are planning to make this a national level play and will certainly try to take this to an international level,” says Chandrakant Kulkarni, the director of the play.

Abhigyan Jha, Creator & Director of Jay Hind! and co-founder of Undercover Productions says, “Jay Hind! has opened up an altogether new medium for the entire entertainment industry. Taking a cue from the success of our show, more production houses have jumped on the bandwagon and launched shows online. The industry has begun to realise the potential of the medium and we’re happy to lead the way. I would like to thank our beloved fans for their support and promise to continue to delight them with rib-tickling humour. I also take this opportunity to thank my tireless team especially the Writing Team headed by the amazing Varun Grover and Rahul Patel and the animation Team headed by rising star Jeevak Muntode!”

Presenting entertainment anytime, anywhere on the go – Jay Hind! is a breakthrough in online entertainment, being the first full-fledged TV show for the Internet populace. A contemporary and edgier version of the comedy of the iconic Movers & Shakers, Jay Hind! gives you the sideways view on India – a view, which in its essential departure from the mainstream picture, will change your very perspective of the nation. It is also a sign of the India that’s coming – a strong, proud nation that grins at its ironies and follies.

Sumeet Raghavan, anchor of Jay Hind! says, “Jay Hind! will go down in history as the pioneer and torch-bearer for introducing online entertainment content in our country. I’m really proud to be the face of this phenomenal show and in the coming days Abhigyan & I, along with our tremendous writing & animation team hope to take the show to an altogether astounding level.”

Famous TV actor Rajeev Nigam who plays multiple characters & impersonations on the show including the now iconic “Aam Aadmi” adds, “For an actor of my genre, working with Abhigyan Jha has always been a great experience. He is the same person with whom I did my first show Movers and Shakers, which was the most pathbreaking show on Asian television once. Jay Hind! is just the kind of show that I was hungry to be a part of. It has been an amazing experience as this show has opened up an altogether new medium and audience for me.”

The show features a stand-up routine followed by quick one-liners about current events and brief comedy sketches, impromptu street interviews, fake celebrity interviews and performances. One of the main attractions of the show is ‘Savitabhabhi Ke Sexy Solutions’ – a funny take on Savitabhabhi – the character from the banned portal Savitabhabhi.com. This segment has the sexy and sultry Savitabhabhi tackling chronic global issues such as global warming, world peace, etc. Bhojpuri star Divya Dwivedi who plays the role of Savitabhabhi says, “My fan following has quadrupled through Jay Hind! and now I have a legion of fans across the world. Initially I was apprehensive about the Internet medium, and was unsure about how the character would be perceived, but with someone like Abhigyan Jha at the helm, I did not have to worry. My faith in him and the team is justified by the terrific response to the show. ”

Another very popular segment is ‘Boothnath’, where the producers have installed booths across the country with surveillance cameras, so that people can enter, and vent their anger on anything or anyone. What the couch is to the psychiatrist, Boothnath is to the street. Another innovation which is extremely popular is the LNN segment hosted by a wig wearing range of weirdos all named Barakh Dutta (inspired from the real life Barkha Dutt) – a comedy news channel parodying the news channels of today.

“Nowadays people spend more time on the internet than in front of the television. Statistics indicate that on an average, a user spends approximately 4 hours on the internet everyday and only 2.5 hours watching TV. To the additional credit of the net, it can be accessed anywhere, anytime, on the go. This was a huge untapped potential we saw. Apart from being a first on the internet, Jay Hind! is also the first High Definition (HD) and 16:9 format show in India” added Mr. Jha.

New shows are updated at 10:10pm every Monday and Thursday on www.jayhind.tv

In between the shoots Milind said “Being a sports person I am very happy that I am doing this show I feel I am closer to my past days again, Shraddha Said after a long silence “I am facing the camera and I feel that my future is in acting only, but anchoring of a sports show is something different”, according to Pavan Shankar “Though I am in to sports but I never was a coach, but in this show I have great responsibility to train the contestants.”

Living Legend billiard champion Geet Sethi was the guest celebrity on the show and he was very happy being a part of this show he said “Commonwealth Games are in the corner and very few shows are being telecasted on sports, but I hope through this show youth will learn and remember some great games and great sports personalities.

Director of the show Kirti said “As the 19th Commonwealth Games are around the corner, this show “Khel Khel Me” is being highlighted with a view to encourage awareness about sports and develop the spirit of sports in people.”

The questions in the show would be related to 13 different sports. It has 8 contestants, 4 girls 4 boys, who are paired up in teams of twos, each team containing a boy and a girl. The show has a length of 13 episodes. One of the best parts of this show is that throughout the show the 8 contestants will remain in it and no one will be removed from it. At the end of each episode, the teams will be allocated with points based on their performance. The team with the highest score in the end will be declared the winner.

Apart from the studio, the participants in the show will also be playing on the field. The weekly show will also have guests associated with different sports, both at present as well as past. P. T.

The next trick is a torn and restored napkin trick. You will need two napkins, one of which is to be opened up and crumpled into a small ball. Hide this balled up napkin in your left hand using a finger palm. To do this, lightly grip the ball against your palm with your middle and ring fingers with the back of your hand facing the audience. Then, open up the second napkin and hold it out in your left hand for your audience to see.

Other easy magic tricks for kids are the spoon bend trick and the jumping paper clips trick. In the former, you grab a spoon, press down on it with your hands, and appear to bend it. Then, you lift up the spoon and show that it is unbent. In the latter, you attach a pair of paper clips to a dollar bill, pull the ends of the bill, and the paper clips link and jump from the dollar.

Indeed, kids enjoy watching magic tricks being performed to them by professional magicians. But more than that, kids love to perform these tricks and watch their friends be amazed by them.
