In an interesting interview to Reddif.com, Rakhi Sawant spoke about her new show Rakhi in Khaki, the latest season of Bigg Boss and Donald Trump. Here are the most interesting excerpts –
On Bigg Boss and Swami Om –
I want to go inside the house and take Swamiji’s class. Why is this old man commenting on women’s characters? Who is he? Is he a judge? I would love to steal his clothes and make him walk nude in the house. I will throw his clothes outside the wall, let him go search for them. I might cut his hair when he is fast asleep. Don’t know which cave they picked this Baba from!
On meeting with an accident –
I had met with an accident while performing for a show in Colombo. I tripped and hurt my head, as there was too much artificial fog. I had to shave my head and undergo an operation. I couldn’t come out in public without hair.
I lost partial memory after the accident. I couldn’t recall a person’s name! I had become Lady Ghajini (laughs). But I am fine now. It took one-and-a-half to two years to recover. I had put on weight during this period. I had to reduce and have come back in dabbang style.
On her new show Rakhi in Khaki –
I have never got a chance to show off my acting skills. In this show, I will be able to do both, comedy and acting.
And there is a social message at the end of every episode. I have always been known as an item girl. We got 600, 700 theatres for my last film, Ek Kahani Juile Ki. It didn’t do well in Mumbai, but it worked in other places.
On Donald Trump –
I should have contested against Donald Trump. Hillary could not shake him; I would have won easily.
