The second season of the Indian cooking-based show, the Laughter Chefs could be watched on Colors from January 25.

The show features celebrities cooking different dishes that are based on the criteria set by celebrity chef Harpal Singh Sokhi. The dishes are later judged by celebrity Chef Harpal Singh Sokhi alongside comedian #BhartiSingh.

Chef Harpal believes that the show was a differentiator in the entertainment industry genre because it was genuine, unscripted, and gave freedom to the actors.

“I think we are all very happy that a show was created that acted as the differentiator and hence loved by people. This show has genuinity. This is what makes people happy. If a food is bad, then it is bad and good, if it is good. People ask us if the show is scripted. Maybe a small part is but the maximum part is unscripted. We do whatever we like. We are free people and we are free to do everything. It resulted in the success of the show.”

Actress #KashmeraShah, who has been part of the show since season one with her husband #Krushna Abhishek, also opened up on her thoughts and said she is happy with the success of Laughter Chefs.

“We are very excited with the second season. When a season goes well then it helps in the livelihood of many people. We get blessings. We became therapists for them. People love the show. They are laughing and it’s such a good thing,” she said.

“Nothing is scripted and everything is impromptu that’s why you see fumbling and overlapping in the show,” said Kashmera Shah.

The first season of Laughter Chefs starred Kashmera Shah, Krishna Abhishek, #AlyGoni, #RahulVaidya, #AnkitaLokhande, #VickyJain, #ArjunBijlani, #KaranKundra, #SudeshLehri and #NiaSharma among others.

The second season will mark the entry of new celebrities which includes #ManaraChopra, #SamarthJurel, #AbhishekKumar, #RubinaDilaik, #AbduRozik and #ElvishYadav.

At the heart of ‘Indradhanush’ lies a powerful message of gender equality and inclusivity—a message that resonates deeply with Ankita and Vicky. In a society where labels often overshadow humanity and prejudices run rampant, ‘Indradhanush’ stands as a beacon of hope, a symbol of unity in diversity.

For Ankita Lokhande, a beloved actress whose warmth and grace light up the silver screen, supporting ‘Indradhanush’ is more than just a gesture—it’s a reflection of her unwavering commitment to standing up for what’s right, for championing the cause of those who are marginalized and oppressed. Through her association with the collection, Ankita hopes to inspire others to embrace love in all its forms, to celebrate the beauty of every individual, regardless of gender or sexual orientation.

And for Vicky Jain, a pillar of strength and support in Ankita’s life, standing by her side as she lends her voice to ‘Indradhanush’ is a privilege and an honor. Together, they dream of a world where love knows no boundaries, where every soul is free to love and be loved without fear of judgment or discrimination. Ankita and Vicky’s decision to support ‘Indradhanush’ is a bold statement—a declaration of their unwavering belief in the inherent worth and dignity of every human being.

As they lend their voices to Rohit Verma’s vision, Ankita Lokhande and Vicky Jain invite us all to join them on a journey of love, acceptance, and understanding. Through their heartfelt endorsement of ‘Indradhanush,’ they remind us that true beauty lies not in conformity, but in diversity; not in division, but in unity; not in hate, but in love.

The series will encapsulate her journey from being an imperial courtesan to choosing to become a Buddhist nun. It will capture a gamut of emotions and vicissitudes experienced by Amrapali, who finally renounces all luxuries and adopts celibacy as a Buddhist devotee.

Filmmaker Sandeep Singh said, “Amrapali was known for her beauty and grace and was one of the strongest characters in the history of India. I could not see anyone but Ankita Lokhande, who has surprised everyone with her spectacular performance in my film ‘Swatantrya Veer Savarkar.’ She is just right for the role as she has all the attributes of a charming princess and a nagarvadhu, as she is also a great dancer. Ankita emotes beautifully through her eyes, which will capture the essence of Amrapali.”

Ankita Lokhande said, “I have received immense appreciation across the globe for playing Yamunabai in my film ‘Swatantrya Veer Savarkar,’ because of which I have been getting film offers with strong performance-oriented characters. But I need to choose wisely, and yes, after ‘Swatantrya Veer Savarkar,’ it’s Amrapali. I will be making a few more good selections soon. Amrapali will be a surprise for me and the audience. I hope to live up to their expectations.”

Music composer Ismail Darbar said, “After ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’ and ‘Devdas,’ ‘Amrapali’ will be the most challenging musical journey for me because this story is about a dancer who, disheartened with life, adopts spiritualism. There will be ten songs of various hues capturing the opulence and the divinity of Amrapali.”

“Amrapali” is being presented by Sandeep Singh and produced by Legend Studios.

When asked about a quality of Yamunabai that she’d like to adapt, Ankita answered, “The quality that my‌ character Yamunabai had was patience, which I lack. I’ve tried to imbibe this quality from her. I am trying to inculcate it within me as it is an important quality to have.” The Pavitra Rishta actress mentioned in the same interview that she works as hard and as passionately on her roles today as she did in the beginning of her career. “I feel proud of myself and my journey so far. I have more such milestones to conquer as this journey has just started,” Ankita added.

‘Swatantrya Veer Savarkar’ marks directorial debut of Randeep Hooda. It is all set to hit the theatres on March 22.

Some love stories are eternal and one such love story is of Archana and Manav, the reel couple of ZEE TV and Balaji’s hugely popular show, ‘Pavitra Rishta’. The show made history and along with that, the reel couple too left a deep impact on the fans so much so that even after a decade, Archana and Manav are still one of television’s favourite jodis. Taking the legacy forward, ZEE5, India’s largest homegrown OTT platform, has released the much awaited trailer of the new avatar of the show – ‘Pavitra Rishta.. It’s never too late’ where Ankita Lokhande is reprising the role of Archana and Shaheer Sheikh is stepping into the shoes of Manav’s character.

ZEE5 released the teaser last week which was very well received by the fans and there was a lot of excitement for the new digital version of the series. “Goosebumps & teary eyes @lokhandeankita”, one wrote. “Yayyyy!!! Ab Aur Intezaar Nahi Hota Humse (We can’t wait any longer) @lokhandeankita”, another said. “Archuuu and Manav once again”, a third commented. And now with the trailer release, we are sure fans will be eager to see how the series unfolds.

As seen in the trailer, the series is a romantic family drama centred around Manav and Archana, the quintessential daughter-in-law and son of every Indian family, and their two typical middle-class families. Unlike other romantic dramas, ‘Pavitra Rishta…it’s never too late’ will see the beginning of a love story from where it was forced to end as Manav and Archana are conned into the sacred union of marriage by their families.

Nimisha Pandey, Head, Hindi Originals, ZEE5 India, shares, “Pavitra Rishta is an iconic IP of ZEE and its success over the years has been a proof of Ekta’s unique ability to build everlasting characters which get etched in people’s hearts. We are very proud to reprise Pavitra Rishta on ZEE5 in its digital avatar and explore the potential of tapping into its large and still dedicated fanbase, along with those who have a penchant for real-life romance and shows meant for family viewing. ‘Pavitra Rishta.. It’s never too late’ is the eternal love story of Manav and Archana told in a refreshing and compelling narrative”.

Manish Kalra, Chief Business Officer, ZEE5 India, shares, “We are elated to bring back fan favourite show ‘Pavitra Rishta’ on India’s homegrown OTT platform. It is as exciting for us to present as it is for the fans to see, television’s quintessential daughter in law and son jodi, Archana and Manav, back on their screens. And, with the series releasing on ZEE5, we are hoping to add a new fanbase to Pavitra Rishta’s already large fanbase and continue the legacy. This is one such eternal love story which had to be retold for the old and the new audience”.

Ekta Ravi Kapoor, Joint Managing Director, Balaji Telefilms Limited, shares, “Some shows and characters leave a big impression on you for years to come. ‘Pavitra Rishta’ was one such show which impacted so many lives and received so much love and good wishes from fans across the world. There could not have been a better timing to bring back the show and honour the legacy of it. I am sure that the fans will give it as much as love and acceptance as they did to the first season”.

Ankita Lokhande shares, “Rarely does one do a role or a project which transforms their lives completely. Pavitra Rishta was that project for me as the love I received from the audience for Archana’s character was unparalleled. So, how could I turn down the opportunity to reprise the role and continue the legacy of Archana? I am so grateful to Ekta and ZEE for reviving Pavitra Rishta and for having faith in me again. I am eager to see the audience’s reaction to Archuu all over again”.

Shaheer Sheikh shares, “It has been a rollercoaster of emotions for me – from the time I was offered the role to eventually being on set and shooting with this amazing unit. It’s been a challenging role to essay, but I have given it my all. In the process of shooting the show, I realised that ‘Manav’ is the most earnest and pure character I’ve ever played and in today’s day and age, such a character is a rarity! Now I only hope that our efforts resonate with the audiences”.

Actor turned producer Bhairavi Raichura’s 24 Frames Production has helmed the digital series which will be exclusively available on ZEE5. Directed by Nandita Mehra, written by Nikita Dhond, Gautam Hegde and Ritu Bhatia, ‘Pavitra Rishta…it’s never too late’ will premiere on ZEE5 ON 15th September.
