Daak Ghar was a show about Zee TV, co-hosted by Phalguni Parekh and Tushar Dalvi. They would talk about the current and upcoming shows, news about the channel and read letters from fans across the world. They would also interview a guest usually actors connected to Zee TV’s shows from their homes through a video conference or a pre-recorded interview.

One of the guests was Surendra Pal who was playing the notorious ghost Vikranta Jabbar from the longest Zee Horror Show episode ‘Saaya’ that lasted for 11 parts. At the end of the episode he was asked to recite a jingle from the episode. Amongst other guests was Shatrughan Sinha’s family including his twin boys.

It had a pleasant opening theme without lyrics, which is unfortunately not available anywhere. It was an inoffensive show that allowed people to get authentic news about the programmes. Both the hosts were affable and spoke like well-mannered, well-cultured individuals.

‘Bollein Taare’
Channel: Zee TV
Years: 1992 to unknown.
Host: Unknown.

Bollein Taare (the spelling could be wrong) was a morning show talking about astrology, horoscopes etc.

Theme song
The show’s best part was its theme song. The song was mainly sung by a male singer, possibly a famous one, whose name isn’t available as of now. The song probably had some female vocals as well.

The lyrics aren’t perfect; some lines or words may be missing. There’s no footage of this show available anywhere on the internet.

Lyrics
Kiski kismat hai roshan. Kiske hain vaare nyare. Kiske hain bhag adhoore. 
Dekhein kya bollein taare. Dekhein kya bollein taare. 
Kisko apnana hoga. Kiso thukrana hogya. 
Shayad batlayein tare kis mod pe jana hoga. Kya kya batlayein taare. 
Dekhin kya bollein taare. Dekhein kya bollein taare.

  1. Awesome blog man!

    If I am correct, Hussain had replaced Tushar Dalvi sometime later. I remember Hussain read my letter during Daak Ghar. They aired it on Sunday.
