In the meantime, male contestants shooting for reality show Zor ka Jhatka in Buenos Aires paint the town red with Argentinean women

THE shooting of the Shah Rukh-helmed reality show Zor Ka Jhatka in Buenos Aires that concluded last week had many jhatkas. According to one of the contestants who spoke on condition of anonymity, there was more excitement off camera than on it with many contestants going completely berserk and ballistic.


Zor ka Jhatka contestants Payal Rohatgi and Gauravu00a0Kapur got injured while recording for the reality show.


After recording just a few episodes, two of the contestants Payal Rohatgi and Gauravu00a0Kapur had to be sent back, reportedly owing to injuries.

A source said, "Gaurav and Payal had to return and were hurriedly replaced by two commandos of the Indian army Captain Albert and Captain Dharam."

Others from the non-entertainment field who participated included the CWG boxer Manoj Kumar, Vijender Singh's boxer-brother Jai Bhagwan, wrestler Sonika, sprinter Alka Tomar, squash player Ravi Dixit and the youngest mountaineer to climb the Everest Krushna Patil.

From the entertainment world there were Kushal Punjabi, Vindoo Dara Singh, Claudia Ciesla, Bakhtiar Irani, former Femina Miss India 2008 Simran Kaul Mundi, Miss India 2006 Natasha Suri, Mink, Rohit Verma, Biggest Loser contestant Gracias D'Costa, Rahul ka Swayamvar runner-up Priyadarshini and winner Dimpy Rahul Mahajan, Vrajesh Hirjee, Jennifer Winget, Raja Chowdhary, Hanif Hilal, Amit Sarin, Karisma Tanna, Narayani Shastri and Manas Katiyal (contestant from Raakhi Ka Swayamvar).

Some of the boys among the contestants apparently painted the town red with the local Argentinean women.
A source said, "Why only red? The boys painted the town every colour. Some of the male contestants just went ballistic with the local chicks who were more than willing to oblige.

They were so many local girls who just wanted to get naughty with our boys. The biggest womanizer in Buneos Aires was Kushal Punjabi.

He was seen with a new hot babe almost every night at the nightspots. And then they would invariably head to the hotel. Once we saw three blonde chicks coming out of his room early in the morning. The guys even Jai Bhagwan really let themselves go."

We just hope they haven't come back with anything more than the Argentinean flu!! "The guys completely ignored the Indian female contestants and headed straight to date and mate the local babes. And why not?

There was only about five days of work. The rest was all play. Don't be surprised if there is a baby boom this year in that part of the world. The local chicks like to do it unprotected," the source said.

To avoid the winner's names being given out Endemol and NDTV Imagine recorded every contestant's stunts individually.

"They have made sure that the winner's name doesn't come back to India as it always does by shooting every contestant's obstacle-tasks separately. Only the Endemol chief from India and Argentina were present at all the performances by contestants.

This is why the host Shah Rukh Khan could not be present in Argentina. He was shooting in Berlin for Don 2. So, they recorded his reactions separately in India. However, he did join us in Bunenos Aires for a few days to shoot the team portions."
