Karan is super fun on the sets: Manish Paul

Manish Paul is back as the host on dance show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Reloaded
One of television’s most loved and popular anchors, Manish Paul is back as the host on dance show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Reloaded. We had a quick chat with the actor about his return.
Excerpts:
How is it being back on Jhalak?
It feels great. It’s an awesome stage and I love being on this show. This will be the fourth time in a row that I am hosting the show, so I am looking forward to having a lot of fun in the coming episodes.
Is it more pressure as a single host?
Yes, being the solo host does increase the pressure but I actually don’t think too much about that. I just be myself and let things flow.
How has your interaction been with the show’s new judges — Shahid, Ganesh and Lauren?
I’ve known them all from before, so the timing with each one of them is super. They have all added a new zing to the show. Shahid is a sweetheart.
Karan and you seem to enjoy pulling each other’s leg…
I think he is one of the best. People love the fun we create. He is super fun on the sets and has a great sense of humour.
Are there any other films or TV projects coming up for you?
There’s Tere Bin Laden 2 releasing on October 30, apart from Katha. There are also a couple of award functions coming ahead.
As a host, how important is it for you to bond with contestants and put them at ease?
It’s very important to bond with everybody. I started this season by hosting a party for the contestants. Everybody attended and we had a great time because the more fun we have, the more fun we create on stage.
