Seriously, how can you not love this woman, this creature, this creation called Rakhi Sawant.
Her mother (honestly what a family) entered the "Big Boss" house in India and exited just as quickly which ofcourse was reason enough for Rakhi to give a press conference about it.
And as always she was wonderfully entertaining.
For those of you not in India, Big Boss is the Indian equivalent of Celebrity Big Brother, the show which has been running in numerous countries for many years now.
By the way since it is legally licensed from the original company, why change the name to Big Boss? After all Brother isn’t an alien term to Indians. Even to the rural ones…
Didn’t Salman and his brother Sohail (who incidentally looks like someone God began to make, got bored and gave up half way) make the god-awful movie called (what else) Hello Brother! some years back?
Anyway during the press conference Rakhi was the master of irony when she said (with a perfectly straight face) "Meri maa ko publicity ke liye use kiya un logon ne," lashing out at the inmates of TV show, who voted her mother, Jaya Sawant, out of the show on Friday night.
“Woh battameez log hain,” she said, before adding “Why should I react against them and increase their TRPs?” quite oblivious (or NOT) to the fact that she was doing just that.
And it’s not just her mother, Rakhi feels even ‘fiancé’ Elesh Parujanwala (whose name strangely, sounds like a fish that the Bongs love) used her.
And this coming from the woman who conducted a swyambar, looking for a groom on national television.
“Definitely, usne mujhe use kiya hai. He came here just for publicity” says Rakhi who apparently seems to think that she holds the sole license for hogging publicity.
She now says they don’t belong together.
“Uska Western culture hai, mera Indian culture, match nahi karta,” she says expecting us to believe she never knew that he was from Canada when she chose him, adding helpfully that she is “thankful to Jejus ki maine uska true colours dekhliya”.
And it can't be a coincidence that Colours is also the name of the TV channel which hosts her shows.
Finally, if all that wasn’t enough she delivers one final coup de grace, which even after the above mentioned gems, stands out for its sheer audacity and cheek.
“Main zyada nahi bolungi, warna log kahenge, ‘Rakhi is a motor mouth’”
So tell me, how can you NOT love such a character.
May ‘Jejus’ give her many, many more years of entertaining ahead.
Till Next Time….
