Shubh Vivah in soup

Madhuri Dixit won't be playing matchmaker any more. The Delhi High Court has restrained Sony TV from launching its programme Shubh Vivah, which was to be anchored by the actress.

A media consultant, who had challenged Sony Television from airing the serial Shubh Vivah on grounds that it was developed on the idea disclosed by his company, has been given a green signal by the court to telecast his serial Swayamvar first on small screen within four months.
