Biography

Rajeev Khandelwal in his school life at Kendriya Vidyalaya, Jaipur
The very popular ex-television actor now a Bollywood sensation Rajeev Khandelwal born in Delhi has won millions of hearts after his romantic and intense portrayal as Sujal in the hugely popular Balaji romantic entertainer `Kahiin To Hoga`. He sweeps you off your feet with his million-dollar smile, innocent eyes and "ready to take home to mummy" image. Rajeev Khandelwal certainly ruled television and became the new teenage sensation of the small screen. He may be known today as one of the most popular and talented actor on the block but Rajeev Khandelwal did not come to the tinsel town with the dreams of becoming an actor but his passion for acting and his great screen presence made him one of the most popular actors of the small screen.His debut movie "Aamir" has proved that Rajeev is here to stay...This cool and composed, super talented actor will make it really make big in Bollywood and will make others run for their money.
He was a Chemistry graduate from St Xavier’s College, Ahmadabad he joined Engineering but he quit within two months and joined Xaviers in Ahmedabad to do his degree in Chemistry. He found Engineering too boring and also he wanted to do something where he could get time to take part in co-curricular activities. He wanted to stay in something where he could do something creative. He was brought up in an army background. He started his career on television as a production assistant but soon after began writing and directing documentary films. Till date, he has written about 30 documentaries on various subjects which aired on Doordarshan channel. He also directed documentary dramas.

Following that while he shifted to Mumbai to sell one of his documentaries and he was selected to model for few commercials and then indulged in endorsing popular brands like LML bikes, Gilbey’s Green Label Whiskey, Kodak Express and Videocon refrigerators. He badly needed the money to recover the losses that he had incurred once while making of a pilot and his advertisement assignments were quite a boon, but they still had not wiped away the entire deficit.
Then he was selected to play a role in `Kya Hadsa Kya Haqeeqat` but still managed to keep a low profile because he had shot for the initial thriller episodes, which was a part of the inaugural series.

Though it was not a hit he was enriched with a great experience and shared the frame with some great television artistes like Rohini Hattangadi and Smriti Malhotra. Soon after Rajeev Khandelwal began to be showered with offers but he had already signed `Kahiin To Hoga` by then and through this serial he catapulted to fame.
On small screen Rajeev has played many roles such as the lover boy Sujal Garewal in `Kahiin Toh Hoga`, ACP Prithviraj in ‘CID’, Varun Awasthi, the raw Intelligence Officer in `Time Bomb`, Captain Rajveer Singh Shikhawat in ‘Left Right Left’ and has hosted `Deal Ya No Deal`.
This chocolate boy can certainly make girls faint by his magnificent presence and definitely ruled the Indian Television with his superb acting skills, which has been well complemented by his good looks. Having won numerous accolades for his performances, Rajeev Khandelwal was a huge asset to the Indian Television Industry and now Bollywood's.
His dream role is that of Amitabh Bachchan in the Bollywood chartbuster ‘Shakti’. His motto is to believe in himself and sky is the limit. This actor also does not at all believe in formal training because for him acting is an intrinsic art, which cannot be ingrained in an individual in these classes. He also does not watch any serial because he would have started imitating someone if he did. It is quite a natural thing to happen and at some point of time or the other one is bound to get influenced by each other, no matter how hard one tries to avoid it. He also does not want to copy any actor, howsoever successful he may be. This is where his motto of believing in himself holds true.
Besides the script and the character the director is also very important to him. He also desires that the director would help him to get into the skin of the character and also has to keep a close eye on him in the initial stages of the show and correct his flaws as per the character demands. However he does not believe that the director has to enact the scenes for him or else he would not be able to improvise. On the personal front he is a very happy and contented soul and believes that the most important thing, which draws him towards any woman, is her sensuality. It is an obvious expectation that this gifted actor will go a long way in the coming times because of his huge determination and great acting capabilities.
After his super hit debut movie "Aamir", Rajeev is concentrating on his next venture "Peter Gaya Kaam Se" opposite new comer Lekha Wasington. Rajeev is dating Manjiri Kamtikar works for an ad agency. Both are extremely serious about each other and in all probability, will make their relationship official soon.

Running time 25 minutes
Broadcast Original channel STAR Plus Picture format 480i (SDTV),
Original run September 8, 2003 – February 15, 2007

Kahiin To Hoga is Asia's 4th Most Watched and Awarded show till present date.It was an Indian soap opera shown on STAR Plus between September 8, 2003 and February 16, 2007 and can be seen on STAR Utsav as repeats. The show was created by Ekta Kapoor of Balaji Telefilms.
Kahiin To Hoga is a story of five sisters:Kashish,Mouli, Mahek, Charu and Kanan. They are like the five fingers of a hand — each different from the other yet connected by the same middle-class values.
On her birthday when her car accidentally hits Sujal's car, Kashish runs away but is scared to tell the police about it. Her father tells her to go to the police and confess that her car crashed into someone's. She does this. Still clueless that it was Sujal's car, Kashish goes for a job interview to Sujal's office. She takes for granted that she would not get the job. Kashish gets the job anyway but is nervous.
In the course of time Kashish and Sujal fall in love. To express her love Kashish writes a love letter to Sujal but she doesn't put any name on the letter leaving it on Sujal's desk. Rishi (Sujal's spoilt younger brother) comes into Sujal's office and sees the letter. He deliberately puts Piyush's (Sujal's best friend) name on it. Sujal sees the letter with Piyush's name on it and assumes that Kashish was cheating on him. He goes into depression. It is only on her engagement day that Kashish finds Piyush there instead of Sujal. She decides to stay quiet to prevent embarrassment and humiliation of her family. Varun (Piyush's younger brother) urges Sujal to find out if Kashish really cheated on him or whether someone else tried to create misunderstandings between them. Sujal finds out on Kashish's wedding day that Kashish is innocent. He begs her to run away with him but Kashish stays for the sake of her family and ends up married to Piyush.Sujal later on is made to believe that Piyush created misunderstandings between him and Kashish. This is the beginning of a serious misunderstanding between Sujal and Kashish and Sujal and Piyush and from here Kashish's life takes a new turn. She follows the path that is to be her destiny and comes to question all the beliefs she ever stood for. This triangular, fatal love story of Kashish-Sujal-Piyush also involves and affects the lives of the other four sisters.

Kashish, over the course of time, comes to love Piyush. Sujal tries to create a lot of misunderstandings between Kashish and Piyush. He also tries to defeat Piyush in his attempt to win Kashish, but this only brings Kashish and Piyush closer to each other. (Even though Sujal may be seen as the antagonist, he actually became one of the most loved characters of the series.) Sujal is humiliated again and again. No one believes him any more and he is kicked out of the house. He vows to ruin Piyush's company and leaves the house with nothing. He meets Archie's father who gives him an offer - if Sujal marries Archie her father will give him all his business. Sujal agrees thinking it to be a good idea to ruin Piyush professionally and to make Kashish jealous.
In comes a character who is Piyush's employee. She helps Piyush get an important contract and becomes close to Piyush. Kashish is shown some evidence to make her believe that Piyush is cheating on her but Kashish believes Piyush who tells her he is innocent. As Piyush's employee is leaving she blames everything on Sujal saying that he paid her to create a rift between Piyush and Kashish.
Eventually, Sujal decides not to interfere in Kashish and Piyush's life. But suddenly Piyush dies in a car accident. With time it is revealed that Piyush didn't actually die in an accident but that the entire thing was planned from before. It is later revealed much later that Archie wanted to kill Kashish but it turned out Kashish wasn't in the car and Piyush was killed instead. That's why Sujal doesn't marry Archie.
After a few months Akshat, Kashish's school friend enters the lives of the five sisters. He joins Sujal's firm as a lawyer. Akshat finds out that Sujal and Kashish loved each other so with the help of Charu (one of Kashish's four sisters), he tries to unite them. One of the sisters, Mahek, who was pregnant with Rishi's child, finally reciprocates Varun's love for her. With the help of Sujal the two are married.
Kashish marries Sujal to seek revenge because she thinks Sujal killed Piyush. She even sends him to jail but finally realises Sujal is innocent and their love for each other is rekindled. Sujalthen gets into an accident where he is bashed up by goons and he falls into a waterfall which causes memory loss and plastic surgery. He returns as Tushar. Tushar falls in love with Kashish not knowing that it is his wife. Kashish also falls in love with the character of Tushar, but denies her feelings. Charu loves Tushar and not knowing that it is Sujal, Kashish gets Charu and Tushar married. Kashish soon realizes that Tushar is Sujal, but tells him to stay married to Charu. Mouli (Kashish's sister) and Siddharth (Mr.Ahulwalia's son) soon get married, and Mouli, later on, gets pregnant. Charu is killed under mysterious circumstances. Kashish marries Mr. Ahluwalia to find Charu's killer. Sujal seeks revenge from Kashish, because she didn't keep her promise of marrying him. So he pretends to romance Gayatri, Mr. Ahluwalia's daughter. Kashish gets jealous, although she knows what Sujal is doing is only to seek revenge from her. Mr. Ahluwalia is soon killed and so is Kashish's father. Later on Varun starts loving Mr. Ahluwalia's daughter and he divorces Mahek. After a few days Rishi and Mahek marry and they fall in love again.

A new character, Abhishek Chauhan, enters the lives of Kashish and Sujal. He looks exactly like Piyush but is widowed and has a daughter, Sneha. Rishi and Swayam have a fight in which Rishi dies and Sujal gets the blame. Kashish tries to save Sujal by marrying Abhishek but Abhishek realises the sacrifice Kashish is making and gets Sujal and Kashish married instead. Swayam kidnaps Mahek's baby (who she had named Rishi) and tries to murder him to seek revenge but his entire plan is ruined and Mehek shoots him just in time to save her baby.Kashish finds the murderer of Charu, Mr. Ahluwalia, and her father. It's Siddharth. When Mouli learns that the father of her unborn baby is a murderer, she kills him. Sujal finds out Kashish's marriage was fake. They get back together and live happily ever after. After a few years Sujal and Kashish are happily married. Abhishek and Mahek, too, are shown happily married with their kids Sneha and Rishi. In the last episode Kashish and Sujal are shown telling their children their lovestroy and the rest of the family listening, with old memories coming back to them.

The lives of all those who come in contact with this whirlwind change forever as if the terror in the world outside is unleashing the terror within.

Deal Ya No Deal
Deal Ya No Deal is the Hindi version of Deal or No Deal. It is based on the International Format Deal or No Deal owned and produced by ayesha International.
It premiered on November 23, 2005 on Sony Entertainment Television and aired on three nights each week. The first series had a set similar to the UK version, and the theme song and music cues were the same as those used in the Dutch version. Contestants held the cases. There is a top prize of 10,000,000 rupees (about $255,000 USD), and the lowest prize was originally a breath freshener, called a Chlormint, but the lowest prize was later 25 paise (a paisa is the Indian counterpart to a cent/penny), although the Chlormint would remain as a prize throughout the entire series. It was hosted by Madhavan, but he quit after fulfilling his 35-episode contract, and was replaced by Mandira Bedi.
The second series premiered in late January 2006 and had a set virtually identical to the Australian version, except there were 22 briefcases. In this series, when the contestant picked a case, the contestant that held the case could guess the amount in it. If they guessed correctly, they would win Rs. 50,000.
After the second series, Mandira Bedi quit, citing time constraints as the reason for her departure. The third series, which premiered in April 2006, has a new host, Rajeev Khandelwal, and airs once weekly. The third series features a new set and new graphics that are virtually identical to those used on the US show. Even though it was a lot similar to the US version, the third series did not have any games that carried over and did not show previous offers when it was time for the offer. Models were also introduced to hold the briefcases, instead of the contestants in series 1 and 2. In this series, once Rajeev, the host, calls out the name of the contestant, he asks them a question with 2 possible answers. If they give the correct answer, they will get to play. At the end of most episodes of series 3, Rajeev ended by saying, "Keep Smiling!" This version ended in July 2006, as it was believed viewers couldn't connect with the concept.
Trivia
  • The show was referenced on the second-to-last episode of the American version's second season, when a contestant from India was playing (it was referenced only a second before the contestant's family surprised him). Unfortunately, the contestant only left with $100 (or about 4,000 rupees).
  • The last banker's offer of the episode aired on June 2, 2006 was 35 paise, which was very likely the lowest offer ever, with the lowest two values in play (25 paise and Chlormint). The contestant refused the offer and revealed Chlormint in his case.

About CID




The series consists of hard-core police procedural stories dealing with investigation, detection and suspense. The protagonists of the serial are an elite group of police officers belonging to the Crime Investigation Department of the police force, led by ACP Pradyuman (played by the dynamic Shivaji Satam). While the stories are plausible, there is an emphasis on dramatic plotting and technical complexities faced by the police. At every stage, the plot throws up intriguing twists and turns keeping the officers on the move as they track criminals, led by the smallest of clues!!!

About Sach Ka Saamna



Format: Game show
Created by Howard Schultz (Lighthearted Entertainment)
No. of episodes Total 48
Producer(s) Siddhartha Basu (BIG Synergy)
Running time Approx. 25 minutes
Original channel STAR Plus, STAR One in the UK
Picture format 576i (SDTV),
Original run July 15, 2009 – September 18, 2009

'Sach Ka Samna' has been adapted from an internationally acclaimed show called Moment of Truth, which also has a huge fan following in India. From nail biting anxiety to answers that will almost have you fall off your chairs, the show has kept the bout of anxiety high with each contestant. While the Hindi version will be hard hitting as contestants boldly share their bitter truths, the show has been crafted keeping in mind the Indian sensibilities. Taking the contestants through this assertive roller coaster ride, the suave and sensitive Rajeev Khandelwal, encourages contestants to keep their calm while supporting them through their emotional journey. At the end, the game rewards honesty by testing the nerve, resilience and integrity of a contestant. The show is an attempt to bring about a positive change by helping the contestants shed their baggage and lead a significantly better life.
Actor Rajeev Khandelwal may have defended his show Sach Ka Saamna as a “tool of truth”, but his mother believes that the popular TV programme often crosses the lines of societal propriety.
The contents of the show which delves into the personal and sexual histories of contestants has been described as degrading to “Indian culture” by parliamentarians and social activists and Khandelwal’s mother in Jaipur has echoed similar sentiments.
“The format is interesting, but sometimes I think it is best not to probe into certain aspects of a person’s life for the sake of the society and their families,” the host’s mother Vijayalaxmi Khandelwal, said.
While Khandelwal’s mother said that she would never want to be on the hot seat in front of her son, his father a retired member of the Indian Army said that he will gladly become a participant on the controversial show.
“I would reveal all truth about my life, except the secrets of the Army if given a chance to be part of the show,” said his father C.L.Khandelwal.
Khandelwal’s father also came down heavily on the politicians who had raised objections against the show, which had become the centre of a raging debate in Parliament.

Format

The show is based on the same format as The Moment of Truth. The format is owned by Howard Schultz of Lighthearted Entertainment.
Prior to appearing on the actual show, contestants are asked 50 questions while being hooked up to a polygraph machine. The biological indicators of the contestant, such as pulse rate, blood pressure, etc. are measured and used by the polygraph to decide whether the answer is true or not. The contestant is not aware of the results of the polygraph for his or her answers.
During the actual show, the contestant is asked 21 of the same questions again. If the contestant answers honestly, he or she moves on to the next question; however, should a contestant lie in his or her answer, or simply refuse to answer a question after it has been asked, the game ends and the contestant loses all their prize money.
There are six levels of prize money in the game. The first level consists of six questions, and answering all of them truthfully will win the contestant Rs. 100,000 of prize money. The next level has five questions and the prize money goes up to Rs. 500,000. The third, fourth and fifth levels consist of four, three and two questions respectively, with the prize money being Rs. 1,000,000, Rs. 2,500,000 and Rs. 5,000,000 respectively. The final level has only one question, with the truthful answer fetching the maximum prize money of Rs. 10,000,000 (one crore).
The questions become increasingly personal and potentially embarrassing in nature as the stakes get higher. The contestants are usually accompanied by close family members or friends, who are seated beside them and the host. Several of the questions tend to be related to the relationship between them and their acquaintances present there. Next to the guests is a buzzer, which they can use to override a question which they feel is better left unanswered. In that case, the contestant will be asked an alternate question which may be easier or tougher than the question it replaced. The buzzer can only be used once during the game.
The series requires contestants to sign an agreement that they will accept the conclusions drawn by the polygraph examiner. The polygraph test is done by Herb Irvine, a US-based polygraph expert.

Contestants

The first season of the show featured some well-known personalities like veteran actors Yusuf Hussain and Rupa Ganguly, former cricketer Vinod Kambli, television actors Raja Chaudhary and Urvashi Dholakia, actor and well known model Vimarsh Roshan, as well as transsexuals Bobby Darling and Laxmi Narayan Tripathi. There are also some non-celebrity contestants, such as Smita Mathai, who was the show's first participant.

Shariff and now Sun Leyna.Many other Producers are making serials with
Indian actors but Humayun Saeed comes up with something very challenging leaving behind others.Sun Leyna's 75% shooting has been done in Malayasia

Sun Leyna is basically about a women who in luvv runs from her house
and gets married,and then because of her,her whole family has to face
humiliation and hardships.It's about those women who because of their
love dont care about their family's reputation. But apart from getting married on their own they have to face troubles and soo does their families. Sun Leyna revolves around Mrs.Daniyal and her children.
She rejects a man whom her parents had chosen just because he was poor and one of his leg did not work, and when her parents force her to get married to him she runs from her house and gets married to a rich man not only because she loves him but because he can provide her a luxurious life which the man chosen by his parents couldn’t.
She did not remember her parents, their reputation and her younger sister Madiha before marrying and running from the house.
From Safiyah when she turns Mrs.Daniyal she realises that what she did
was wrong because she wasnt actually happy. Her mother gets mad because of the sadma. Safiyah now cannot even go back soo she accepts to live a life worse then hell as Mrs.Daniyal.Despite having fights and all with his husband she gives birth to a girl[Visaal]and after that to keep herself busy she opens an 'Advertising Agency'.And on the other hand Afzal who'z marriage proporsal Safiyah had rejected too own's an 'Advertising Agency' in Malaysia.He did not gets married after Safiyah had ditched him and  bring's up his dead sisters son Sharim. Both Mrs.Daniyal and Afzal without knowing eachothers true identity and seeing eachother make plans of ruining eachothers business as they are business rivals.But Visaal Safiyah'z only daughter starts taking interest in Sharim.





What Sun Leyna'z actors say about it:
1-Javed Sheikh(afzal):Sun Leyna is not a fake serial.It is based on reality and it gives an important message to viewers.Its story is diferent from other serials soo its unique.
2-Saba Pervaiz(Safiyah):It was my pleasure working with Indian actors.
Playing Aamna's mother i have realised that we are not only open minded but also have space for eachother in our hearts.This serial will always remain close to my heart.
3-Rajeev Khandelwal(Sharim):Although this is my first Pakistani serial,my friendship with Humayun is quite old.Aamna gave a party after 'Anaz'  success soo we met over there and we became very good friends.Then Humayun offered me Sun Leyna and i liked the script soo accepted it. Cant say i'll work in more Pakistani serials or not but i used to get a lot of calls,emails and letters from my Pakistani fans soo did this serial for them.I hope they liked my perfromance.I've also heard that Lahore and Karachi people are very welcoming soo i personally want to visit Karachi and Lahore.And working in Sun Leyna was a very fine experience.
4-Aamna Shariff(Visal):When i got an offer for 'Ana' from Humayun Saeed i accepted it on my own will and my first experience working with Humayun and pakistani stars was very good. To grow more as an actor and get experienced i accepted 'Ana'. But my role in Sun Leyna can be proved more lucky for me as i have the lead role in it,and i wish to not only work with Humayun Saeed but with other Pakistani directors too. Working with Pakistani actors was a very pleasant experience, because the atmosphere was family like.

What Ahsan Ali Ziadi(director) says about the cast:
Everyone's performance was upto the mark and very very good,esp.
Rajeev and Saba Pervaiz's.
We shot many difficult scenes with Rajeev in only one take.
What Humayun Saeed(producer) says about Sun Leyna:
Sun Leyna's uniqueness and the presence of two very famous and talented Indian Actors Rajeev Khandelwal and Aamna Shariff made it popular in very less time.People started liking it since da day it got on-air.
What Humayun Saeed says about Rajeev AND Aamna:
Rajeev and Aamna are very good and talented actors. i loved working with them and its been great to know them and they have become very good friends of mine in very less time. I wish them all the very best for their future.

Aamir 2008


Aamir is a man-on-the-run thriller revolving around the eponymous London-based doctor's visit to his family in India. Geographically, Aamir's maze is set in the Muslim dominated streets and residential pockets of Old Bombay. In its lanes and crowded alleys, cheap restaurants and lodges, amongst nameless pimps and whores, run-down buildings and packed markets, Aamir is made to confront the life he has lived, the 'choices' he has made, his dreams, his loves and his immediate fears. Through the course of a day, lost in the streets of Mumbai, the question remains - do you choose your destiny, or does destiny choose you? Does Aamir choose to be a follower or does he rise to become a leader?
