This is the kind of news you will find on Bollywood Nonsensex hosted by Juhi Pande and Manish. Here Juhi lets us on the nonsense that goes in her show

What kind of response have you got for Bollywood Nonsensex?
People are watching it and liking it. It’s the first time that such a show is being aired so people are curious. We have got a couple of good reviews too.

Any reactions from Bollywood,which you are taking on in the show?
None so far. Frankly,it’s a spoof,so everything is funny. It is a choreographed-comedy. Channel V is known for this kind of entertainment. Nothing is taken seriously. Last week we had Riteish Deshmukh and Jacqueline Fernandez on the show. We had a good time.

Yeah and Riteish asked the producer to fire VJ Manish and you?
Yes! It was our stupid questions that led to it. We goofed up on the name of his film Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai many times (smiles) among other things. So,he got irritated. But he was really sporting. He had seen a couple of our shows earlier and knew that it is meant to be funny. It was his idea to tell the makers that he will make a fool of Manish and me,which is why he came and said that we are fired and he will hosting the show!

Any more celebs expected on the show?
Not that I know of.

So,tell us which star has higher stocks and who is on the downside?
To begin with the stocks are not related to the performance,box-office or any such. We choose stars who are topical. The numbers are picked up randomly. It could range from 45 to one million. For instance,we could say Ajay Devgn ke daath kharab hai kyunki woh sigrett pite hai,and whenever he laughs,his stocks are down. Actually,a team of scriptwriters is working on the show and they come up with these great ideas.

Arjun Rampal bears the brunt of your jokes..
You will have to ask the writers that! Every alternate episode we have a joke on him. We are always making fun of his expressions. But it is done in good spirit,no offence meant.

You are doing Bollywod Busters and School Of Cool. Of the two which is more exciting?
Bollywood Busters in which I review movies alongwith Lola Kutty is fun but I completely identify with School Of Cool,which covers the happening across campuses,talks about the latest trends in fashion,things that youngsters relate to. I relate to the show because I am also a regular youngster who loves hanging out and having fun.
