Manasi Varma set to sizzle!

Remember we had told you that Manasi Varma (Monalika of 'Kahaani...') was supposed to shoot an item number for Ekta Kapoor's 'Kasautii Zindagi Kay'? The number was to be shot early one morning at Sankraman. A few hours before the shoot, the plan was shelved. Fortune favours the brave. Finally, Manasi has done an item number for Balaji. She will gyrate in a one-shoulder top and capris in Sony's 'Kkoi Dil Mein Hai'. It took half-a-day to the shoot the number. No prizes for guessing that Manasi is tremendously excited about it. "I was very disappointed last time, when it got cancelled. But I guess I was destined to do it," she says. Come 28 January, and men will be treated to some more of Manasi! She will be seen in a bikini in Moving Pictures' 'Popkorn' aired on Zoom. Manasi will be seen swimming in the blue waters wearing a blue swimsuit. The water baby advocates swimming, her favourite pastime and passion, as the best exercise. 'Popkorn' which went on air January 18 is a half-hour daily. If this doesn't set the small screen a-sizzle, we don't know what will!
