Workless Veena

Published April 22, 2012

This is sad. Veena Malik was going great guns. She was, and perhaps still is, the biggest star that Indian television industry has produced in recent times. And then… nazar lag gaee.

The Indian TV channel on which Veena M’s most anticipated reality show Swyamvar was going to air has been closed by its US-based top management. Till last reports came in no specific reason was given by the management to its employees for shutting down business. The biggest catch of the channel was the programme on which Veena M was to make an appearance where she was supposed to find a groom for herself. Already thousands of men had applied to woo Veena. So not only is she now workless, has also been deprived of possible suitors.
