After Shakti Kapoor, it's Aman Varma who has been cornered by India TV on the Bollywood casting couch controversy. But the news channel isn't quite sure whether to go ahead with more exposés.

While Suhaib Ilyasi - the man who carried out the sting operations - says many more exposés are lined up, India TV's head honcho Rajat Sharma is none too pleased with the turn of events.

"I really don't want to focus so much on Bollywood exposes. I think we've proven our point and cautioned the wannabe stars about the casting couch," Sharma told.

"Now there are so many other areas of our lives that need to be exposed. I want to look at irregularities in other walks of life such as the police force, the hospitals. No more Bollywood exposes."

But Ilyasi, who's been on the job and who has surfaced in the media again after years of eclipse - he was an accused in the sudden death of his wife a few years ago, seems to be in no mood to give up. He wants the Bollywood exposes to continue.

Apparently Sharma was even against the Aman Varma expose.

"In fact he had called to say he was sorry. And I had decided, 'Chalo bachcha hai (He is young). Let him go.' The next thing I knew Aman was consulting people like Salman Khan and threatening us with legal action.

"That's when I decided to put on the expose which would otherwise have remained in the cans."

Sharma names several bigwigs on whom he has exposes ready. But he's in no mood to carry on with the Bollywood-baiting.
