Hats Off Productions could not work up the magic this time or so it seems as their social family show<em> Resham Dankh</em> on Star One will go off air by the end of this month. J D Majethia and Aatish Kapadia of Hats Off, who have given hugely popular TRP charters like<em> Khichdi, Sarabhai vs Sarabhai, Instant Khichdi</em> and family social<em> Ba, Bahu Aur Baby</em> had a different experience with Resham Dankh.

His good looks won him a host of ad films, music videos and television shows. And now Gautam Rode's<em> luck </em>has favoured him so he gets to play the lead in Sagar Arts Productions Lucky, a kids adventure show. Along with this action-packed series,<em> Ba,Bahu Aur Baby and Betiyaan…Paraya Dhan</em> in his kitty, looks like he has now become Star Plus's favourite choice.

Kamalika Guha Thakurta is back with Balaji after a short sabbatical. The actor is shortly going to be seen in<em> K Street Pali Hill</em>, playing an NRI doctor. Post<em> Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi </em>and <em>Ba, Bahu aur Baby, </em>the actor acted in a play called<em> Tea, Coffee or Me</em> and is all gung ho about being part of<em> K Street… </em>from 9 August.

sagar Arts, makers of <em>Hatim, Hotel Kingston</em> and the recent <em>Akkad Bakkad Bambey Bo</em>, are now making an adventure comedy serial for Star Plus aimed at kids, titled <em>Lucky</em> with Gautam Rode as the lead. The show is likely to be launched in mid-January 2006. "Lucky will be an action-adventure show with a host of characters in it. It will be an episodic comic book show on the lines of Tin Tin or Indiana Jones. So each episode will have its own identity and we will primarily be shooting in Baroda for the show,"says producer Shakti Sagar.

Another Gujju family is all set to take on the most coveted slot on Star Plus from 5 August. Hats Off Production's show, <em>Ba, Bahu aur Baby</em> will be aired on the channel at 10 pm just after <em>KBC II</em> and will be followed by <em>Kyunki</em>.... , say sources. Our sources tell us that the show will be a tri-weekly and logically that means it is going to be aired on the weekends. This is a move perhaps to strengthen the weekends which, compared to the high voltage programming during the week, do not have much to hold up the ratings.
