Big Boss is now a pretty popular reality show in Indian TV (being the slightly less controversial of the international Big Brother series (which is less censored and where there can be much more explicit scenes between the contestants)). The shows survives on the concept that the audience can get into the lives of minor celebrities, as they live their life in a glass cage in a video monitored house. In addition, the creators of the show do their best to ensure that there is a huge amount of controversy and drama in the show; so you have a contestant such as Dolly fighting with her fellow team members in a way that appeals to those people who like controversies. Then there was the marriage between Sara and Ali Merchant which got heavily criticized once there was proof that they were already married (and they split soon after Sara got out of Big Boss, apparently because Ali was spending all their money).
There have been 3 previous versions of Big Boss before (with the previous winners being Rahul Roy, Ashutosh Kaushik, and Vindu Dara Singh), and all these winners were male, so there was some controversy about the winners of reality shows very rarely being the female contestant. So, for the Big Boss season 4, there was the same expectation that it would be a male winner. The final 4 participants were - Khali, Shweta Tiwari, Dolly Bindra, and Ashmit Patel. This got narrowed down to the final 2, who were Khali and Shweta Tiwari.
When Salman Khan got down to announcing the final winner, there was some amount of doubt about who would be the final winner, and then Shweta Tiwari was announced as the winner.

Hindi TV Serial - Pratigya - Arushi wants to leave Shakti, Pratigya supports her in this
The serial was showing a conflict between Arushi and Pratigya for some time now. When Pratigya found out the truth of Aman, that he was two-timing Arushi, she warned Arushi. However, Arushi could not understand this warning, and got real angry at Pratigya. In this anger, when Pratigya created a scene in the marriage between Arushi and Aman, Arushi took the extreme step of marrying Shakti as his second wife so that she could enter the same house as Pratigya and take her revenge.
And she does enter the house of Shakti Singh, and takes real pleasure in tormenting Pratigya, telling her various items, and so on. Further, since she is the wife of the elder brother, she scolds Pratigya at several intervals, and Pratigya takes all those insults. The others in the house are pretty happy at this distance between the 2 sisters, since they never really liked Pratigya. In all this, Krishna is still uncomfortable, but continues to support whatever Pratigya does (however, he does tell her off at many intervals, being angry with her at many occasions).
However, in the end, Arushi comes to know the reality of Aman, seeing him with his wife (the same person who tied a rakhi on Aman to prove that she was like a sister to Aman). Realizing that Pratigya was only trying to be helpful to Arushi, Arushi comes to Pratigya and Krishna and wants to apologize for everything that she has done, and also wants to reconcile with her parents (who have disowned her for whatever she did and said against them). And then there is Shakti, who is itching to establish physical relations with Arushi, and the only thing saving Arushi was the message of the baba who came to the house (although the baba was sent by Pratigya), who states that there needs to be a period of going to the temple for some days of prayer before the marriage can be taken to the intimate level.

Hindi TV Serial - Geet - Hui Sabse Parai - Geet in mortal trouble, with her part catching up with her
In the midst of the steps leading to the marriage with Mann, with all the festivities ongoing, both Geet and Mann are facing some serious danger. Geet is somewhat vulnerable due to her pregnancy, and Mann remains very careful about her and to ensure that she does not face any danger.
For one, there is the presence of Arjun, Nayantara's brother who has come because of the problems that are being faced by Nayanatara and who has been provoked by the anger expressed by NT. NT has shown to Arjun that they all conspired against her and got her thrown out, and as a result, Arjun has vowed to take revenge against all of them, and has identified the sister of Mann, Annie as his weak spot.
And so Arjun manages to get a contract for doing the wedding planning of the marriage (where Geet manages to prevent him from being thrown out even when she learns that he is NT's brother). His aim is to spoil the marriage and also attack Annie, and he manages to do so by getting her interested in him; even when Annie learns about him being the brother of NT, she still does not really send him away.
The biggest problem is Brij, who is out of jail and who wants nothing else other than to avenge the apparent insult that Geet has caused to the family honour, and what better way than to kill Geet and Mann. He manages to get a job as a cook for the wedding, and has attacked Geet once already, by locking her in the bathroom and increasing the temperature incredibly. She manages to survive, and now Mann is on his total guard, increasing the level of security in the house.

Hindi TV Serial - Pyaar Ki Ye Ek Kahaani - The strange going on in the serial, between Piya and Abhay
This is a very different serial, different from all those family serials that showcase the difference between family members, and so on. The serial takes on the paranormal, getting into the concept of creatures such as werewolves and vampires (or atleast people who are not humans), and who are trying to be part of normal society. The show does not try to be a horror show, instead a love story is being shown between a human being and a creature.
So Abhay and his parents are shown as people with super-human properties, who can move faster than speeding cars, who have super-human strength, and so on. His parents are quite clear, they have to integrate in society and hence need to hide their powers so that they are not found out. Abhay on the other hand is more comfortable with his powers but still takes the effort not to be found out. The complication comes when Abhay comes in contact with Piya (who is actually the daughter of Arnav, who is also the father of 2 of Piya's best friends; Arnav does not know about this).
For Abhay, Piya resembles a much older companion of his, and he is drawn to her; at the same time, he is also aware of his powers and how easily he could be found out, so he has been making an effort to ensure that nobody in college comes close to him, and if possible, hate him. But, he is shown as a person with a good heart. Together, they are drawn into a series of adventures, such as exposing Danish for the fraud that he is (so Piya along with Abhay, and Maya (who was carrying Abhay's child) expose Danish before he can succeed in his ambitions of marrying into Panchi Dobriyal, a rich family). Danish has sworn to attack Piya, but Abhay comes in between every time.
Now, Piya is slowly some evidence of the amazing abilities of Abhay, such as when he is able to move faster than a jeep to stop some rowdies who were trying to rape her. How will she find out his reality ?
