VIKRAM BLEEDS WHILE SHOOTING FOR EK DEEWAANA THA.

The charming and good looking Vikram Singh Chauhan, ‘Vyom’ from Ek Deewaana Tha is a director’s actor who always believes in going an extra mile to get into the skin of the character. In the upcoming episode of Ek Deewaana Tha, Vikram is seen playing a guitar to serenade Sharanya (Donal Bisht) and he got so involved into the act that he ended up hurting his fingers and blood started oozing out! But that didn’t deter Vikram from shooting and he played the strings until the shot was okayed.

When contacted Vikram said, “Acting for me is not merely a profession, it’s also my passion. It’s a constant endeavor for me to present my best performance for the audiences. While shooting for the sequence with the guitar, I was required to strum the strings constantly as I sing a song to appease Sharanya. After the completion of the shot, when I went back to my vanity I realized that my fingers were bleeding! I was so engrossed while shooting that I didn’t even know I had hurt myself. The crew quickly provided first aid which was a relief.”

In the upcoming track of Ek Deewaana Tha Sharanaya portrayed by Donal Bisht is upset with Vyom as he does not let her consult Odhni to find out about her past life. Vyom visits Sharanaya’s home and sings a song to serenade her and win her affection wherein Shiv will use his mystical powers to keep both of them apart from each other.

Tune in to ‘Ek Deewaana Tha’ every Monday to Friday at 10.00 pm only on Sony Entertainment Television!

In conversation with the Chirpy and lively Dolly aka Shweta Gulati in Sony SAB’s ‘Partners- Trouble Ho Gayi Double’.

In conversation with the Chirpy and lively Dolly aka Shweta Gulati in Sony SAB’s ‘Partners- Trouble Ho Gayi Double’

Talented and Beautiful actress will be soon seen in in Sony SAB’s upcoming crime based comedy show ‘Partners- Trouble Ho Gayi Double’. She will portraying the role of Dolly Nadkarni who is a café owner. She loves reading suspense novels and tries to apply her acquired Detective Knowledge in all Aditya & Manav’s cases. She plays Manav’s love interest in the show.  In conversation with Dolly Nadkarni.

1) After a long time you are coming back on television, so how does it feel?
A) I don’t know why people calls it as a comeback. I just choose not to do anything on television because I wanted to have time for myself. I am very choosy when it comes to work. When I got this offer, I was very excited to work with the production house, as I have worked with them before. One of the reasons to pick up the show was it’s a hilarious and fun show. Another reason is, I have done many shows for Sony SAB l in the past and I love working with them. Sony SAB is like a huge happy family.

2) What is the connection of you with comedy, that you are seen more in comedy shows?
A) It is not that I choose comedy but the fact is comedy chooses me. I would love to do drama, I would love to have tears in my eyes. But somehow the shows which come to me and I end up liking is comedy. I pick what I feel is the best for me.

3) You have been doing theatres, television so which is more comfortable to you as an actor?
A) I don’t think an actor look for comfort, they look for challenges. I look for challenge. Theatre is definitely any day more challenging than television because in theater you don’t get another chance to prove yourself. You don’t get another episode to prove you. Television is my love because I began my career with television. I can’t deny my love for TV. So I am comfortable with both the mediums.

4) Tell us more about your character in the show?
A) I will start between the similarity about my character Dolly and me. Dolly loves thriller, horror and she loves solving mysteries. She thinks that she has the attitude for it but she doesn’t or maybe she does also. As we progress in the show we will figure out if she really has the passion or no. My theatre genre is thriller and horror, so that is the similarity between Dolly and Shweta. The biggest difference is Dolly zones out. When she gets into the thriller mode than she is tripping on that mode. Dolly is a coffeshop owner who hates coffee or she doesn’t even drink coffee. She is always wondering about why people even drink coffee and is always amused that people are drinking coffee and giving her money in return. In her own thriller attitude she tries to crack the cases for the boys- Manav and Aditya. Dolly is a very sweet, fun loving girl next door who probably aspires to become a detective but she is trapped in the coffee shop.

5) The show is about Partners and crime, so who is your partner in crime in real life?
A) My dogs are my partners in crime in real life. I just love them and the reason I am working today is to give them a better life. I just love them immensely.

6) The show has many big actors, comedians in the show like Johnny sir, so how do you feel about the same? Are you nervous or very excited?
A) I just feel so honored to work with Johnny sir. As we have grown up watching his comedy. He is a living legend of comedy. Till now I haven’t shot any episode with him as he is the commissioner but I am sure in the future we will get a chance to shoot with him so I very much excited for the moment. Yes I am very nervous as well to share the screen with such a veteran actor.

The scene was such where her saree catches fire and she had to let it burn until someone came to save her. Since she was shooting with actual fire cautiously, she had to change her saree every time she gave a retake for the scene. 

The production were well prepared with 4 similar looking sarees and quickly got her changed in her look. Adequate safety measures were taken by the production house. A doctor was present on the sets in case of any injury or burns. The effort of the actor and the crew ensured that the shoot was completed successfully.

ivape.in presents at the USA FDA in Washington DC & Asia’s first Harm Reduction meet in Indonesia.

Mumbai,  November 2017: Recently, FDLI organised a Tobacco Products Regulation and Policy conference in Washington DC, USA and Nilesh Jain, the founder of India’s leading vaping brand ivape.in  was invited as the only Indian speaker at the event.  Following this, he also represented India at the Asia’s first harm reduction meet in Jakarta, Indonesia. The advocates of vaping and active consumer vaping groups from different countries had gathered at this harm reduction forum. The purpose of this meet was to appeal to the local governments, allowing them to regulate the use of electronic cigarettes and the so-called ‘heat-not-burn’ products which are less harmful alternatives to smoking.
Vaping is considered as a harm reduction tool, according to experts. Vaping is an act of inhaling and exhaling the vapor produced by an electronic device—a battery-operated device which vaporizes a flavored liquid made of propylene glycol, glycerin and flavorings.
While there are no specific data on the population of Asian vapers, it is estimated that millions in the region now have switched to vapes which are classified as harm reduction products.
While talking about Asian countries, India, one of the fastest growing economy in the world is also the second largest producer of tobacco with an estimated annual production of 800 million kilograms and is also amongst the highest consumer of tobacco products. About 50 million households depend on tobacco industry for a livelihood.
Speaking on the occasion, Nilesh Jain, founder of ivape.in “The decision of banning vapes is taken by influence and not based on facts or science. There is lack of research and study done on vaping and its benefits to human lives. The tobacco-free NGO’s, influencers, & regulators are unclear about its regulation and hence are more focused on imposing a ban. Regulation of ENDS will provide 120 million smokers access to technology that can create the difference between life and death for them. Ban is not a solution, but a violation of fundamental right to choose better and safer alternatives over smoking.”
According to Global Adult Tobacco Survey, a staggering 267 million Indians continue to smoke cigarettes and use smokeless variants such as gutka. Some 900,000 people die every year due to this addiction, ranking India among the top four countries in the world for smoking-related diseases.
The new US FDA policy of shifting the focus from tobacco to nicotine delivery systems, addresses the heart of the problem, & can have far-reaching impact on public health. In a country like India which has a huge tobacco burden, and where access to public healthcare is minimal at best, making the role of preventive measures even more critical. Advanced countries like USA, UK, Australia amongst others are insisting on more research, studies & evidence based facts to promote ENDS. Indian regulators and the health ministry must also take a step towards evidence based policy making and not introduce ban, thereby denying 140 million smokers the access to technology that can make a huge difference to their life expectancy.
Dr. Farsalinos stated that in 2014, 6.1 million Europeans quit smoking with the help of e-cigarettes.  An additional 9.2 million reduced smoking with e-cigarettes. “E-cigarettes promote smoking cessation. Millions of lives can be saved in Indonesia, Asia and worldwide at no cost to the economy and the state,” he says.
The Philippines has recently excluded vaping from a nationwide ban on smoking in public places.  Data from the Philippine Statistics Authority show that in 2015, 16.6 million adults or 23.8 percent of the Philippine population were smokers.  Of the total, 76.7 percent planned or were thinking about quitting, but only 4 percent were able to successfully quit.
Many Filipinos switched to vaping when the government issued an executive order prohibiting smoking in public places, according to Tom Pinlac, president of The Vapers, Philippines.
In countries that promote the use of electronic cigarettes and heat-no-burn products such as Japan and the UK, smoking prevalence has been declining at a record speed. In the UK for example, 2.2 million smokers have quit smoking within five years. Japan has the world’s fastest decline in cigarette use since the last two years. The US FDA just announced this year that its anti-tobacco regulation will be fully geared towards harm reduction while New Zealand Ministry of Health just endorsed this month towards promoting the use of electronic cigarettes.
If new policies encourage harm reduction alternatives, the public health benefits can be unprecedented and even more so in Asian countries where smoking rates are high.
About ivape.in :

The founders of ivape embarked into this business with a vision to help people quit smoking and ensure that vaping products are affordable and accessible to the Indian population. Vaping is a healthier alternative to smoking the hazardous cigarettes.

There are approximately 108 million smokers in India.Nevertheless, the government hasn't shown keen interest to help people quit smoking or provide them with an alternative.There is very little awareness about vaping as a cleaner alternative and ivape wishes to undertake this noble initiative.ivape uses only FDA approved flavors in their e-liquids which are meticulously handcrafted in their  ISO 9001 certified manufacturing unit.

Ziqitza Healthcare Ltd refutes malicious reports.

Ranchi, Nov 11, 2017: Ziqitza Health Care Ltd. (ZHL), one of India’s leading emergency medical service provider, announces that it will soon commence their services in Jharkhand. The company strongly refutes the wrongful and baseless reports about its business and believes these malicious attacks are politically motivated. Contrary to the incorrect and uncorroborated media reports, ZHL has every legal right to conduct its business in India and abroad. The company has not been blacklisted in any State in India or overseas. The company successfully manages and operates EMS in partnership with the State Governments in Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab and has played a pivotal role in saving lakhs of lives in these regions.
ZHL has won the bid for Jharkhand EMS after emerging as the L1 bidder, through a fair and transparent online tender where two companies were shortlisted after a rigorous review process. The tender was administered as per the statutory guidelines and regulations laid down by the NHM and the State Government of Jharkhand.
Ziqitza condemns the recent reports that many media outlets have published out of context, with a clear intention to sensationalise the news. Ziqitza had received foreign investments from two leading reputed companies. One of the shareholders, as reported by news agency, had routed their investments through a company incorporated in Mauritius, which was the case with most foreign investments made in India at that point of time. ZHL had adhered to all approvals / compliance and disclosures to all the regulatory authorities of their respective jurisdiction in India and abroad. The Company had also reported all related transactions to the RBI and other regulatory authorities as applicable. The media has conveniently ignored that the original newspaper report has clearly mentioned that being on the list does not make any investments illegal or illegitimate.

ZHL had been set up with a vision to assist in saving human lives by providing a leading network of fully equipped Advanced and Basic Life Support Ambulances across the developing world. ZHL is currently operating 2100 plus Ambulances across Mumbai, Bihar, Kerala, Punjab and Odisha, J&K, MP and Tamil Nadu. ZHL has reputed investors like Acumen Fund, GMR/AMR (USA largest Ambulance Company), HDFC, IDFC and India Value Fund on board. ZHL’s
Strategic Partners include London Ambulance Services, Life Supporters Institute of Health Science and New York Presbyterian Emergency Medical Service (NYP-EMS).
ZHL has currently more than 9000 people working tirelessly, day and night, to serve people in India. ZHL is currently operating more than 3000 ambulances across 18 states and have served more than 6 million people, till date.
