Just before the shoot of the last episode of Bhalla Calling Bhalla, Lubna Salim developed an eye infection. "We tried to mask it in several ways, but later decided to incorporate it in the script because we were on a deadline," says the actor.

Obsessed with S

It is a lucky coincidence that all of Aasiya Kazi's on-screen names begin with the letter S. She says, "I never realised the letter 'S' connection until I took up Tenali Rama [where she plays Sharda]. And touchwood, all the shows I have done, did well."

All is well

Ex-Bigg Boss contestant Arhaan Khan cleared the air about his friendship with long-time friend Prince Narula going sour. "Prince is like a brother. We've known each other since ages. We have no issues," says the actor.
