Amidst an extreme suspense around the pregnancy of Gehna and the question whether she’d be able to give an heir to Kalyani Devi’s khandaan, the rumors are that Gehna fails to give an heir to the family.

A source reported, “Initially, Vasant always played a dutiful son to his mother and supported Maasa in every decision she took. Gehna, on her part has always been a devoted daughter-in-law and a loyal wife. Seeing this good side of hers’, Vasant had a change of heart and he became emotionally attached to her.

This was clearly seen in the previous episodes when during childbirth Gehna’s life was in danger. Vasant stood up to his mother when the doctor told them that they could only save one of them. But Vasant goes against the wishes of Maasa and opts to save Gehna’s life.

Home the new twist gets Balika Vadhu back into the TRP charts!

Tanaaz Currim who was the latest person to get evicted from  Bigg Boss Season 3 lashed out at the inmates and in particularly fashion designer Rohit Verma and wants to slap him.

She said, “Rohit has enraged me so much with his attitude and backbiting on the show that I really want to go back and slap him for ruining my name,” Tanaaz, who was evicted Friday, told IANS over phone from Mumbai.

“I am amazed to know what all he (Verma) said behind our backs. What is he? Who is he? He says he is a well-known fashion designer, but he should see what he’s wearing. I’ll be obliged to know another person who wears Rohit Verma creations other than Rohit himself,” said Tanaaz.

“There is not one thing to like about him. What can I like about him?,” she added.

Do you agree with Tanaaz? Do you think she was bitchier? What is your take?
