Request....
written by Radha, July 06, 2010

Hi Ekta Maam...

I love watching your shows.....
Tere liye is doing great ....I'm loving the story line
I have a request can you please cast Arjun Bijlani & Rati Pandey of Miley Jab Hum Tum in any of your new ventures
They both are amazing actors who have sizzling chemistry & a huge fan following but the show they worked never recognized their true talent...they act flawlessly...and give mind-blowing expressions...
We would love to see them as a couple in your show
Thanks

Please cast Arjun Bijlani and Rati Pandey oppostie each other in a show
written by Nidheya Suresh, June 07, 2010

Dear to whomsoever it may concern,

There are two phenomenal actors, Arjun Bijlani and Rati Pandey, who played the characters of Mayank Sharma and Nupur Bhushan Sharma (respectively) in the youth show Miley Jab Hum Tum on Star One. They garnered 70% of the TRPs for the show, yet they were badly sidelined and their characters were butchered. smilies/sad.gif

They have a huge fan following and even won the hotpix poll of Most Romantic Star One Jodi! Arjun won the hotpix poll for Most Trendiest Star One Actor, defeating even Karan Singh Grover. Rati is at the moment leading another hotpix poll with a strong lead of above 70 thousand points.

Both of them are great actors and have been praised time and again for their flawless performances. Their fans would love to see them on screen again, this time as the only leads, paired opposite each other. It would be an amazing show, Arjun and Rati playing the leads.

Both of them have played characters opposite to their personality. Nupur is very extroverted and bubbly, while Rati is reserved and friendly. Mayank is very quiet, stubborn and serious in life, doesn't care about girls, but Arjun is very talkative and friendly.

I'm including youtube videos of their various scenes together, different from each other, so that you can see what all types of scenes they can do, and that too perfectly

plot of a story
written by rkg, May 27, 2010

Ms.Ekta ji,
I have conceived a plot of a story on prevailing social problem with which the whole world is obsessed /tormented with. I am offering this story to you because i feel that you can only do justice to such a story. Moreover, your sensibilities are capable of going deep into a issue, explore the human and psychological correlates and expression of human agony. Moreover, you are capable of stuffing commercial masala in social theme which is the demand of time. This story ,if properly developed and beautifully picturised, will certainly qualify for international acclaim.If you are really interested to develop a story, then contact me [following:-

i don't know my review matters to you or not but i have few things which i would like to tell you about the movie

1. Direction was super duper whole movie is like you are watching it through a spy camera i give 10/10 for that!!
2. three stories first shows love second sex and third dhoka..........third one is quit good because it have some kind of twist and first two were very predictable.
3. linking of these stories with each other is very interesting to watch and i mean it.
4. after watching the movie i like the music video and song even more smilies/cheesy.gif

overall i give 7.5/10 must watch smilies/cheesy.gif

Bandani
written by ann, October 20, 2009

Dear Ekta,

I really like your serial Bandini but I have a feeling this going to be the same old same old with entrance of either DM's lost wife or new janam wife. Doesn't it get tiring doing the same thing with serial. I like Bandini's main both characters but it seems just like Kasam se it going to lose it's uniqueness. Why not introduce DM's long lost son or resolve the situation with DM's sister.
