Kushal Punjabi wins Rs. 5 millions Zor Ka Jhatka

The Imagine TV’s reality show hosted by actor Shahrukh Khan had its grand finale on Friday (February 25). It was a tough fight between the final 16 finale contestants. But, the man who walked away with the big amount of Rs 5 million is none other than the most consistent performer on the show, actor Kushal Punjabi.

Television actor Kushal, who also acted in films like Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal and Salaam-E-Ishq won the show after fighting it out with the final four contestants, who reached to the final round. The
finalists Claudia Ciesla, Kushal Punjabi, Captain Albert and Jai Bhagwan made it to the deciding round of the "Wipeout Zone", where Kushal emerged as the winner of 'Zor Ka Jhatka'.

There were two special guests for the evening, Bollywood queen Rani Mukherjee and reality queen Dolly Bindra. Apart from the main 'Zor Ka Jhatka' awards, there were other humorous awards categories like "Ram Lal Foundation Award" for Manoranjan award, which was given to Priyadarshani Singh, 'Running Commentary', which was given to Sonika Kaliraman, and the 'Haste Zakhm' to Dimpy Mahajan.

'Zor Ka Jhatka' was an Indian version of internationally popular 'Wipeout'. The main backdrop of this adventurous game was set in Argentina, with 28 celebrity contestants, fighting it out to win the water challenges given to them. Apart from Shahrukh, Actress Saumya Tandon was also the on-spot host of 'Zor Ka Jhatka'.

We at Oneindia congratulate the winner Kushal for his achievement.

Shahrukh Khan: Can he be blamed for ‘Zor Ka Jhatka’ fiasco?

Though some of you readers are staunch Shahrukh Khan fans and support him through thick and thin, even you would agree that his latest TV show ‘Zor Ka Jhatka’ has backfired at him and he, himself, has received the biggest ‘Jhatka’ of his life.

This has been one of the floppest ventures of SRK’s career and the low TRPs are evidence enough to suggest that his dominance in films hasn’t rubbed on to the TV world. The show ‘Zor Ka Jhatka’ went on air on 1^st February, 2011 riding on huge hype and expectations.

Based on the international show ‘WipeOut’, it is a game show where the contestants (small-time celebs) battle it out for the prize money. It is aired on NDTV Imagine. Though the show is reminiscent of ‘Takeshi’s Castle’ of Pogo, ‘Zor Ka Jhatka’ lacks the spunk and thrill that comes with the former.

And SRK himself is on the receiving end of the flak since some critics are questioning his integrity. Apparently, he did the job half-heartedly and didn’t show his full commitment. For instance, he never flew down to Argentine to gel with the contestants but shot his portions in a local studio. His shots were attached to the Argentina shoot in a manner that it looked as if he was present on the location.

However, the end product did not turn out to be as juicy as the viewers were expecting. May be, SRK should make a thorough research before taking up a project.

Salman Khan more 'worthy' than SRK

The actor is paid more than SRK to host reality shows...

Actor Salman Khan seems to be having the last laugh. After top league actors bask in titles such as Badshah, Shehenshah, and Khiladi, Salman, who wasn't given any such title, is suddenly described as 'Dabangg' as he rules the roost today. Extremely 'wanted' in films or then on the small screen, Salman Khan's popularity seems to have become so huge that everyone wants a part of him.

In fact, with him having successfully hosted Bigg Boss Season 4 - a reality show hosted by Amitabh Bachchan and Shilpa Shetty in the past, Colors has already roped him in for season 5. As if that isn't enough, Sony is keen that Salman hosts Dus Ka Dum, too.

Talks have it that Salman Khan is being offered big monies for his (hosting) services, even more than what a Shah Rukh Khan is getting for 'Zor Ka Jhatka' or what Hrithik Roshan is charging for being a judge on 'Just Dance'. We are told that Salman Khan, at this point, is leading the pack, and is being paid heavily for it!

Mumbai, Feb 20 – Actress Mink Brar, who’s one of the contestants on Shah Rukh Khan hosted game show ‘Zor Ka Jhatka’, lost oodles of weight while shooting for it.

‘I lost six kilos while I was shooting for ‘Zor Ka Jhatka’. I got hurt, but I tried my level best to be in the competition,’ Mink told IANS.

Shot in Argentina with about 28 contestants, ‘Zor Ka Jhatka’, which comes on Imagine TV, is the Indian version of the international show ‘Wipeout’.

Mink cleared the red balloon twice and tore her ligament but kept trying and said: ‘I am very happy to be part of this competition.’

She has acted in films like ‘Hum Aapke Dil Mein Rehte Hain’, ‘Ajnabee’ and ‘Pitah’.

SRK's Priyanka's dearest hubby

His Zor Ka Jhatka may or may not have impressed you but it goes without saying that Shah Rukh Khan continues to rule the women's hearts when it comes to romance.

Priyanka Chopra, Kareena Kapoor and Vidya Balan. All three gorgeous actresses have time and again expressed their crush on the King Khan. Priyanka Chopra has however gone a step ahead and proclaimed how she would love Shah Rukh the most if she actually had him amongst one of her seven husbands!

It all happened on the sets of Zor Ka Jhatka. Priyanka was on the show as a guest to promote her forthcoming film 'Saat Khoon Maaf'. When asked what she would do to Shah Rukh if he too was one of her seven husbands, Priyanka blushed, "He would probably be the only husband I wouldn't kill."

Shah Rukh too reciprocated Priyanka's fondness for him by mouthing few of his famous romantic dialogues only for her.

Kareena and Vidya, buck up ladies!
