Anuj's khaas rishta!

We keep discovering many shades to his personality. It seems doctor turned actor and the man behind Maverick Productions, Anuj Saxena, who rose to fame as Abhay in Sony's Kkusum has a very soft corner for dogs. It seems the multi tasking and workaholic businessman already has three dogs - namely Buddy, Brownie and Brandlin. And the latest value addition to his dogs brigade is a small puppy gifted to him by his staff. It seems Anuj has named him Rocky. A little birdie tells us that the pets bond big time with their master. So much so, that they keep waiting eagerly for Anuj to return from office or his shoot in the wee hours of the night to come home and feed them. As for Anuj, who is only doing Rishton Ki Dor currently, also shares a very khaas rishta with his pets. So, now we know, when the maverick CEO is globetrotting for his business deals, it's not just a certain Ms Parmar but even Buddy, Brownie, Brandlin and Rocky. Maddy finally knows what love is ... Love does different things to different people and in Rajesh Khera's (Maddy of Jassi fame) case; it has changed his entire perspective of judging people, for the better, of course. Recently he was dating a Mexican filmmaker who visited Mumbai to work on a documentary. This was his first relationship as he was overheard saying, "She taught me what L.O.V.E is and made me discover certain aspects in me which till date I did not know I possessed." Now that she has gone back, he misses her but also feels long distance relationships don't work. "She cannot settle in our country and I cannot leave India. So for now, we are constantly in touch with each other through mails," says a sad Khera. Rajesh who made the gay character of fashion designer Maddy in Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin come alive, is also remembered as the original Devil in the Onida TV ad. He has acted in many serials like Devi and thrillers like Aahat, etc. Presently, he is waiting for good work to come by. Till then, it's daydreaming about his lady love from Mexico that he indulges in! Pooja flitting between hospitals! Pooja Ghai Rawal, who is popular for reviving the trend of 60's Bollywood heroine's outfits (tight-fitting churidar-kurtas a la Babita), has been missing from the social do's for sometime, so we thought of finding out her whereabouts and this is what we discovered. It seems the svelte actress has been busy running between hospitals. First her mother had a brain injury that led to fits and she has been admitted in the ICU at Leelavati Hospital. And before Pooja could come to terms with that, her three-year-old son Raj was hospitalised for food poisoning after he consumed home-made button mushrooms. So, it looks life has been quite hectic - mentally and physically for the otherwise cheerful model, anchor and actor, who started her career with Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi as Ketaki Dave's daughter Suhasi. Later, she went on to do many serials, namely CID, Siddhant, Darna Mana Hai and also anchored the Fair n Lovely show. Let's hope the pesky actor finds her true calling in the industry once again! Planning a comeback? Poonam Narula took a break from acting post her maternity leave. She made a mark on the tube with substantial roles in Kasauti Zindagi Kay and Kkusum. And in Nach Baliye (the turning point in her career) she, along with her hubby Mannish Goyal, danced into the hearts of the viewers. Though Manish has been spotted at many socials off late, Poonam somehow prefers to maintain a low profile. Recently we spotted Poonam shopping in the by lanes of Lokhandawala (suburban Mumbai) accompanied by her adorable son Aryaveer. What's remarkable is mommy dearest has lost oodles of lard and now she looks ravishing! Hmmmm…thinking of returning to the small screen, Poonam? Our industry always welcomes talented actors with open arms!
