  I am using The Columnist Theme for my blog. I have added some widgets in sidebar, but they are not getting displayed in my blog.
  Please help somebody.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  According to the theme developer http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/the-columnist/

  “Widgets will not appear in any template where multiple posts are displayed.”

  Are you trying to get them to display on the front page, or single post pages?

  Your widgets are displaying (when you view a single post or a static page): they show below the content. The Columnist doesn’t have a widget sidebar, it has footer widget areas only, and the labels “Sidebar 1/2/3/4″ in Appearance > Widgets are simply misleading.
