Zee Carnival 2006
Zee Television brings you the best of Bollywood and the cream of the Indian television industry at the Zee Carnival 2006.
When it comes to Bollywood, Rani Mukerji is about as big a name as you can hope to meet. With super-hit films like Black, Bunty Aur Babli , Paheli, Hum Tum and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai under her belt, Rani Mukerji is today firmly entrenched as the No 1 actress in Bollywood and an A list star in her own right. She has made the Best Actress Award her own in several award shows over the years and has won both commercial and critical acclaim for her performances. The darling of a Nation, her warm personality is almost as famous as her dimpled smile, and you can see her exclusively at this year’s Zee Carnival 2006.
Accompanying her is the man who sent many female hearts aflutter with his song Jaan Leva. Crossing over from the glamorous world of modelling, Arjun Rampal has made a seamless transition into Bollywood and is today recognised as one of the sexiest men in the industry. With Tehzeeb , Aankhen and most recently, Ek Ajnabee, Arjun Rampal has only grown bigger and better.
If that weren’t enough, Zee Carnival 2006 will also play host to the dusky Bengali beauty Rimi Sen, who created a Hungama in our hearts with her debut film of the same name. She then went on to do blockbusters like Dhoom, Garam Masala and Deewane Hue Pagal. Joining Rani, Arjun and Rimi is Neha Dhupia, another of Bollywood’s up and coming actresses. Crowned Miss India in 2002, Neha has since made a mark in Bollywood by doing challenging roles in films like Julie, Rakht and last year’s hits Garam Masala and Kya Kool Hain Hum. This is one actress who’s not afraid to tread new ground.
If you have ever wondered whether DK is really as intimidating and charismatic in person as he is on screen in Tumhari Disha, or whether Saloni is really as shy and soft-spoken as her character in Saat Phere? This is your chance to find out as Ashish Nayyar and Rajshri Thakur are coming to Zee Carnival 2006 to meet all their fans in London.
With them is the bubbly Divya Dutta. When Divya isn’t interviewing your favourite Zee stars for Galaxzee of Stars she keeps busy by shooting for films such as Silsilay, Baghban and Veer Zaara (for which she won the Best Supporting Actress award at the prestigious Zee Cine Award 2005)
We have also managed to drag Shaan away from his hectic singing and filming schedule in India. Besides being the much-loved presenter of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa, Shaan is also one of the top playback singers in Bollywood and has a very successful pop career.
The Cookery Theatre in the Zee Carnival 2006 will be hosted by Zee’s very own celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoor, whom you’ve watched over the years in the immensely popular cookery show, Khana Khazana. As always he will cook up something special and bring you some classic and some unusual recipes in his own inimitable style.
We have also specially invited Humayun Saeed to the Zee Carnival 2006 all the way from Pakistan to meet his fans in the UK. A hugely poplular actor who graces several Zee TV dramas such as Shiddat, Mehendi & Chandni Raatien, he is currently the hottest property in Pakistan.

ANGEL EYES
Featuring Frankey Maxx & Jucxi D
out 7th February
“Ragga-flavoured Angel Eyes is cooler than ice-cream” HEAT
After the last year of chart hits, headline performances, award winning and accolade reaping, Raghav (pronounced Ragg-iv) kicks into 2005 with an uptempo, dirtied down, raunchy ragga dancehall tune, inspired by the beaches of Jamaica via the cold, icehockey obsessed streets of Calgary Canada and the tunesmithery of Raghav.
Raghav demonstrates again his musical sorcery on a track featuring a potent blend of ragga rhythm and rhymes, asian beats and bollywood strings all elegantly stitched together by his crystal pure vocal.
Raghav delivers an infectious new song over one of the most famous Dance Hall rhythms of all time originally brought to fame by Chaka Demus & Pliers 90s Worldwide hit “Murder She Wrote”. Not wishing to dilute any of the original vibe, Raghav enlisted the originators of this classic piece of Ragga history, the legendary Dancehall dons Sly & Robbie, to re-produce his new single. Raghav is aided and abetted on the track by the UK’s premier Dancehall MCs Frankey Maxx and former 2Play compadre, Jucxi D.
