Come August, it’s superstar Fridays on Sony Entertainment’s ‘JCPK’
It takes one cine star to get not just one, but a host of them to add glamour and fun to television viewing. And that’s what Sony Entertainment has lined up on Fridays on its big budget gameshow Jeeto Chappar Phaad Ke hosted by filmstar Govinda.
Looks like Fridays will be fully packed throughout August and thereafter on JCPK. And the list of Bollywood biggies who will be matching wits with Govinda provides some mouth-watering fare. Beginning with the Kambhat Ishq girl Urmila Matondkar, next up will be Shatrugan “Shotgun” Sinha. The beautiful Mahima Chaudhary and muscleman Sanjay Dutt will also be seen on the show and inevitably do a jig or two with Govinda.
Musicians will also be featuring on the shows. Adnan Sami, singer of popular song Lift Karade in which Govinda made a special appearance will do his number on JCPK. To be Followed by Tanha Dil Shaan and Falguni Pathak.
There is also a “Rakhee Special” featuring a bother-sister duo with ace choreographer Farha Khan and her twin brother Sajid Khan set to make their presence felt.
And its not just JCPK that will be stirring things up on Fridays on Sony Entertainment. Hit dance competition show Boogie Woogie promises more fun and funk with guests like “good man” Govinda, “bad man” Shakti Kapoor and “funny man” Asrani (to name a few) jiving things up.
And that’s a Friday promise from Sony Entertainment.
