 TV hunk Karan Singh Grover has always been known as ladies’ man. However, ever since his marriage to actress Jennifer Winget, currently seen in Star Plus’ Saraswatichandra, things for him have changed for good.

But his charm is something that still mesmerizes ladies around and co-star Surbhi Jyoti aka Zoya from Zee TV’s Qubool Hai is no exception. She seem to be completely enchanted with Karan’s persona, however, this fondness is limited to good friendship. Surbhi respects Karan a lot and looks forward to his friendly advises.         

Speaking about her off-screen chemistry with Karan, Surbhi said, “KSG is a far senior actor, so we are not even friends for we don’t hang out tougher. He gels with far more senior actors in the industry”. She further added, “I guess marriage to Jennifer has changed KSG for the better as when I ask him about all his earlier reported escapades, he says they had happened when he was young.”

She also said, “Many actors who had worked with him before also say that he is a different KSG now. He is not a ladies’ man anymore. He is well-behaved not only to me, but to other women on set as well. He is a great help to all us newcomers. He gives you tips in terms of lights and dialogue delivery etc. He is very lucky to have found a beautiful and sweet wife in Jennifer; she likes me and calls me a kid.”

Looks like Jennifer has for sure changed KSG!

Actress Vishakha Singh, who is all set to be seen in Vikram Bhatt’s Ankur Arora Murder Case, recently revealed that it was talk show Satyamev Jayate which temped her to take up the film. She feels nowadays focus is more on earning comfort than saving patients.

"Last year, when I was watching Satyamev Jayate and how Indian Medical Association opposed Aamir Khan, I felt sad. Even though being a doctor is a noble profession, there are doctors who forget that there is a living being right in front of you and you have to take greater responsibility," said Vishakha.

Produced by Vikram Bhatt, the film revolves around a child who dies on the operation table due to medical negligence. "When Vikram brought the film to me, I was confused as he is known for his horror films. I liked the fact that it`s a simple, non-complicated, and competent film. That is what attracted me," said the actress who will be seen with actors like Tisca Chopra and Kay Kay Menon in the film.

"If it was any other role, like a lawyer and RJ, one still knows. The entire language here was different. For me, my best friend is a doctor and have five uncles who are doctors and I also watched a lot of Grey’s Anatomy, which helped. Also, we had a doctor on the sets, which helped too," she said.

The film is directed by Sohail Tattari!

I think this is the right time to stop playing this tournament. I'm 40 and have to accept the reality. I have decided that this is my last season and it has ended perfectly. All the hard work has played off.

Things don't come easily and the guys were prepared to do well. The tournament is exciting but it's tiring as well. The body clock changes and there is no time to rest. With all that, a lot of adjustments are required and it has been a fantastic outing for us this year,” he said.

Following the success of Savdhaan India – India Fights Back, the real life docu drama on Life OK, the series is now making its first Maha Movie, slated to premiere on the channel 2nd June 2013.

Life OK as a channel has advocated and believed in the philosophy of cherishing what you have as the thought resonates beautifully through the series. The series encourages the common man to raise his voice and fight back.

Produced by Saregama India Ltd. The film features Siddhant Karnik as Karan, Falak Naaz as Gauri, Aakash Sinha as Babban and Sanjay Sonu as Ranjan. The movie is a part of Savdhaan India's UP Fight Back special series.

Saregama’s Business Head, Manish Popat, says, “We are very proud that amongst various producers Channel Life OK chose us to produce the 1st Savdhaan India Maha Movie. I am sure we are doing some things right during the production of Savdhaan India that the channel has given us this opportunity and we as always will deliver a good product. We are looking forward to many more movies”.

The film being an action thriller is a challenging project for the creative and directorial team since it has been adapted, developed and put into direction within ten days of channel approval.

“It is a great opportunity and we are enjoying every bit of its making. I am happy that the task has been bestowed upon us and the channel has trust on our creative design. We are making a 2 hours film in less than 20 days from start to finish which is quite a challenge considering the cinematic thought behind it. I am sure that audience will love the chemistry between Gauri and Karan…and the entire thrill that action gets into it. We are already visualizing a great response from viewers on the film and are hopeful it will generate more opportunities for us to make many more telefilms”, says Sachin Mohite, the creative director of Saregama.

The film is being directed by Supavitra Babul, who feels that shooting the film has been like driving a Formula 1 racing car. The producer and the script being the navigators…8 days of heat and speed gives an adrenaline rush…that is making the process very exciting with all its challenges in deadlines. The entire crew and cast are super excited and some pleasant surprises are evident on screen.

“It is wonderful to be working with producers who understand filmmaking and support the creative and director’s vision. Also, I have known Ajit Thakur as a strong decision making channel head. I am glad that, through the 1st Savdhaan film, Life OK, has opened the gates to realistic crime action thriller genre and it couldn’t have been a better production house than Saregama for the first task. I am looking forward to making more such films and entertain a larger audience across the country”, says Babul.

Adapted from a real life incident the film is about a commando, Karan, who single handedly fights a dacoit, Babban and his gang, to save passengers in the compartment from his terror loot but loses his fiance, Gauri, to Babban's fancy. The journey that begins in the train ends up in the jungles where Babban has escaped with his loot and Gauri. A badly bruised Karan, in his full throttle as a Commando follows the tracks to reach the dacoit and his lady love...but will he be able to fight back and survive?

Watch the Maha movie on 2nd June at 6 PM and 10 PM only on Life OK!
