Small to big
After countless appearances by big-screen stars on the small screen, it is now time for the small-screen stars to take the big screen by storm. The cast of Hats Off Production8217;s popular show Jasubein Jayantilal Joshi Ki Joint Family will be setting a trend of sorts by appearing in a Gujarati film, Vanechand No Varghodo. The key cast of the show, including Swati Chitnis and Anang Desai, will shoot alongside Devang Patel, who is the lead actor in the movie. The team recently went to Ahmedabad to shoot the special sequence that will be seen in the movie. Maybe this pioneering effort will herald more big-screen-small-screen liaisons in the future.

Scarily predictable
TELEVISION8217;s obsession with the supernatural is never-ending, it seems. The latest offering in the spine-chiller genre is SaharaOne8217;s Kaisi Laagi Lagan. Mahi Vij plays the role of Pratha, who se family is cursed- that none of them will have a happy married life. But as fate will have it, Pratha does meet a man played by Asmit Kaushik with whom she falls in love. What happens next is anyone8217;s guess, but it does involve Pratha overcoming the obstacles of age and time to bring the message of truth and love triumphing over evil. Did we hear somebody say 8216;same old8217;?
