A while ago, Monalisa‘s fiance, Vikrant Singh Rajpoot expressed his displeasure over her growing intimacy with fellow contestant Manu Punjabi. Now, Manu’s fiancèe Priya Saini has lashed out at Monalisa, calling her desperate and trying to seek limelight through Manu.
Here’s what she told TOI:
I hate Monalisa; she is a despo. Woh jab dekho Manu ke aas paas ghumti rehti hai. She has been nominated so many times in the show. She would not have been able to survive the show, had it not been for Manu. In fact, in one of the episodes, Manu ne bol bhi diya tha ki Mona ne ek mahina survive kar liya show mein, that’s more than enough. She knows that the day Manu and Manveer abandon her, it would be very difficult for her to stay in the house. That’s the reason she keeps hanging out with both of them and tries to get intimate with Manu by hugging and kissing him.
That’s not all. She further said:
As far as Manu is concerned, I know he just treats her as a good friend. I know a lot of people think that Manu is equally at fault since he too is committed. But this doesn’t affect me as I know that Manu is like that off-screen too. Woh apni saari female friends ke sath aise hi friendly hai jaisa Mona ke sath hai. Sometimes, I used to tell him that other girls might take his over-friendly nature otherwise, but that’s how he is. I am sure that he doesn’t feel for Mona the way the makers of the show are trying to project. I saw one episode where she was complaining that Manu doesn’t pamper her. She gets jealous when Manu talks to some other girl in the house. Well, I hate her even more after seeing all this!
She has endless faith in Manu though, as she said:
I am a normal girl and I do feel insecure at times. I am not with him 24*7, Mona is. I remember one of the episodes where Manu sang a song for Mona. That time I couldn’t control my emotions and started crying as Manu used to sing that same song for me. But later, I composed myself realising that things are not always what they seem to be. I completely trust my fiancé.
Umm, okay! So Manu is certainly not at fault here, according to Priya. But he does claim to go to any length to safeguard (only) Mona in the house. Thoughts?
