Shilpa_ShettyMumbai, Oct 26: Actress Shilpa Shetty, who gave industry some popular dance numbers like Main Aayi Hoon UP Bihar Lootne, Shut Up and Bounce, says she misses dancing.

Shilpa is judging the sixth season of celebrity dance reality show Nach Baliye along with director Sajid Khan and ace choreographer Terence Lewis.

"It feels like it (the show) has just got over.. But it is a new season with new contestants and a thinner version of me. It takes time to reduce weight after the baby. I miss dancing and miss being part of this whole madness. When I look at my child, I don't miss it. So this works well as it is a TV show and it lets me connect with my fans," she said.

This season has an interesting line up of celebrity couples including comedian Raju and Shika Shrivastav, Raquesh Vashisht and Riddhi Dogra, Gurmeet Choudhary with Debina, Bruna Abdullah and Omar Farooquie, Ritwik Dhanjani and Asha Negi among others.

"This time we have got really interesting contestants.. Especially there is one guy named Vinod Thakur he is handicapped, doesn't have both legs, but he is dancing. It made me feel more grateful to God. He has a great spirit and is very positive," Shilpa said.

"I am amazed.. I am looking forward to seeing them. We have people from different milieu like Raju Shrivastav who is hilarious; Kiku who has entertained us will also be seen dancing. Each one of them has a USP and there are interesting contestants this time," she said.

She is happy that her co-judges are the same. "I am so happy that we all three are back. We respect each other's opinion. It is great fun to be doing the show together again, Shilpa adds.

A year after giving birth to son Viaan, Shilpa lost a lot of weight and got back her toned, fit self. In the show, this time she will be seen in traditional wear.

"Last time I wore both Indian and western attires but this time I am going completely Indian and will wear saris only. I want to do a take on wearing saris in different ways. People loved my look in the show, this shows how much people follow TV and what we are wearing etc," she said.

"I am here to entertain people and if my clothes entertain them I am more than happy. I have the same stylist Nandita," she added.

Patna, Aug 3: Bihar DGP Gupteshwar Pandey on Sunday charged that Vinay Tiwari, the IPS officer from Patna who is in Mumbai to probe a case related to Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death, has been "forcibly quarantined" by civic authorities in the metropolis.

Tiwari is heading a Bihar Police team which is in Mumbai to investigate an ''abetment to suicide'' case on the basis of a complaint filed by the late actor's father in Patna.

"IPS officer Vinay Tiwari reached Mumbai today from Patna on official duty to lead the police team there but he has been forcibly quarantined by BMC officials at 11 PM today," Bihar Director General of Police (DGP) Pandey tweeted.

"He was not provided accommodation in the IPS mess, despite request, and was staying in a Guest House in Goregaon," he said.

Sushant's sister Shweta Singh Kirti has tweeted, " What? Is this even for real? How can an officer sent on duty be quarantined for 14 Days?".

Rajput, 34, was found hanging from the ceiling of his Bandra residence on June 24 last.

Last month, Rajput's father lodged an FIR here of abetment to suicide naming actress Rhea Chakraborty, said to be close to the deceased Patna-born actor, and her family members as accused. Tiwari was posted as the City SP (East) in Patna.

The Mumbai Police, which is also probing the death case, have so far recorded statements of nearly 40 people, including those from Rajput's family, his cook and people from the film industry that include filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, film critic Rajeev Masand, director-producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali and filmmaker Aditya Chopra.

Mumbai, Apr 2: Ramayan, the over three-decade-old TV series based on Hindu mythology, garnered 170 million viewers in four shows over the last weekend in its new avatar, the BARC said on Thursday.

This catapulted the Ramanand Sagar production as the highest watched serial in the Hindi general entertainment space ever, the Broadcast Audience Research Council said.

The show was relaunched last Saturday amid the gloomy times of lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and a lot of thrust laid by the government machinery to popularise the series.

BARC's chief executive Sunil Lulla said the numbers notched up by the series was a bit surprising and called the move as a brilliant one by the Prasar Bharti.

He said eventually, we will also see advertisers flock the series which will be running for a few more days.

The inaugural show of the series on Saturday morning had 34 million viewers glued to their TV sets watching and enjoyed a rating of 3.4 per cent, while a telecast the same evening had 45 million viewers and a rating of 5.2 per cent.

The show bettered its performance on Sunday, with 40 million and 51 million people watching it in the morning and evening telecasts, respectively.
