Rohit Roy's message for wife Manasi Joshi Roy is heartwarming

25 years ago, the love story of Rohit Roy and Manasi Joshi Roy started. To commemorate the occasion, Rohit took to Facebook to share a sweet and romantic message for his wife. He started with the day he asked her out on a date. He revealed, "On the 23rd of may 1992, I asked this gorgeous, young model out on a date. I had met her only a couple days before through a common friend. She was a top notch model n had been given the title of 'the face of the nineties' and I was a lowly ranked assistant to Kunal Kapoor( son of the legendary Shashi Kapoor). Happily n surprisingly, she obliged me without much of a fuss (must have earned some brownie points at our 1st meeting) and off we went on my scooter to the Shiv Sagar restaurant (coz that's all I could afford on a kingly salary of 1500 rupees a month ) We ordered a Ganga Jamuna (mash up of orange n Mosambi) for her n a mango milkshake for me! Must have spent a couple of hours there but those were the most eventful hours in my life.. those 2 hours determined how we would spend the rest of our lives!That day, unbeknownst to me, or her, for that matter, I met the love of my life.. a woman so beautiful inside out that she took over my life n every aspect of it without me even realising it. It's been 25 years today n my world still starts n ends with her."  He then went on thank Manasi and said, "Thank u Manasi for being my all.. for creating a world so true n pure that God sent an angel to us! Thank u for being the 'correct' one in our relationship n not erring even by mistake! Thank you for all the sage advice over the years (and yes even for the whacks on my posterior when I erred!) I might have been less or more successful without you but I wouldn't have been a better man without u and that's for sure! Love u, from then to eternity.

Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai Take 2 Episode 2: Sarabhais promise a laughter ride whilst they fulfil Monisha's 'mannat'

The Sarabhai family is back to entertain us with their madness! The second episode of Sarabhai VS Sarabhai Take 2 was nothing short of a laughter ride. The episode starts with the Sarabhais narrating the entire Monisha ki Mannat episode in bits and pieces. We are taken into the flashback where the family is stuck midair in a bus. Amidst all this Rosesh asks Momma to accept his love for Jasmine or he will die. While Sahil tries to control the situation, Monisha sends Arnob out of the window  asking him to seek help from Villagers. Later we see the bus has been rescued, however Indravadan is seen trapped midway in the window. Monisha being the middle class bahu she is, worries about spending 2500 than Indravadan's condition while Sahil is again sandwiched amongst all this. Maya starts her Monisha Murdabad rant at any given cue.

The family somehow manages to reach the samadhi, however, Maya is terrified to know that to reach the spot they need to cross a manmade bridge which could fall anytime. While Indravadan continues ro face the wrath of Madhusudan pupha, Rosesh finds himself dangling mid air after he walks with swag on the bridge. Even in such a tense situation, the family is able to crack you up like no one else.

Barun Sobti - I will definitely miss Sanaya Irani on Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon 3

Barun Sobti is gearing up to make a comeback on television with the third instalment of Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon. He will be seen playing the role of Advay Raizada on the show. Talking about his character, Barun stated to a leading daily, "Though my character is called Advay Raizada he has nothing to do with Arnav Raizada (the character he played in the first one). My character is more of an anti-hero with a tragic past. He is the kind who doesn’t like to hold back. Some of the things may not be favourable, but he goes ahead and does them. There’s a dark side to him." His chemistry with Sanaya Irani on Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon was loved by the viewers. But, in the third season, he will be not romancing Sanaya, but is paired opposite Shivani Tomar.

So, will he miss Sanaya on the show? To which Barun replied, "Sanaya and I are really good friends. As a co-star and for the kind of talented actor she is, I will definitely miss her on the show since our chemistry was highly appreciated. We continue to be good friends after the show and we do meet often! Now, I am hoping to recreate the magic with Shivani. She is a promising actress."
