June 3, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Thoda Hai Thode Ki Zaroorat Hai is the name of the show. And, it looks like Romit Raj was in the mood to make a thoda (little) appearance at the show’s press conference.
An extremely tired and sick looking Raj simply walked out unable to cater to the journo’s demands. This reporter tried having a word with the actors earlier, but Raj looked ill, and so he requested to be obliged. However, the electronic media wasn’t done with him.
The actor was feeling uneasy and he couldn’t take on the pressure anymore. Out of nowhere, he simply walked out of the studios. A colleague tried calling him out but in vain. Presumably, Raj headed towards his vehicle.
Much before this walk out, the media was greeted with an act that underlined the theme of this Colors show.
Produced by Rose Movies, Thoda Hai Thodi Ki Zaroorat Hai is the tale of the Kulkarnis, a simple Maharastrian family living in Mumbai’s heartland, Shivaji Park.
Often the producers, actors talk of their story and characters. Here, the press conference was opened with a funny act whereby a family showed their greed for money more than love. This was followed by the introduction of the protagonists, the Kulkarni family headed by Sulekha (Neena Kulkarni) and her cricket crazy husband Ramakant (Vilas Ujwane). Arti Singh plays the ideal bahu Mughdha. Romit Raj plays the younger son Nishikant, while Priyamvada Kant plays his wife Pragya.
Siblings Shristi Arya and Goldie Behl, producers of the show cited that the inspiration for such a show comes from their in-laws, who are Maharastrians.
Thoda HaI Thode Ki Zaroorat Hai goes on air from June 7 at 7.30 pm on Colors.
