Rakhi Sawant sets 10 rules for reality show
Candolim (Goa), Sep 24 (IANS) Bollywood item girl Rakhi Sawant has a list of 10 rules for anyone visiting her villa in Goa on the sets of the reality show 'Pati Patni Aur Woh', where she and her Canada-based fiance Elesh Parujanwala are experiencing the hardships of parenting.
At the entrance of Rakhi's villa in Candolim, which has been hired for the show, a visiting IANS correspondent noticed a board which read - 'Please remove your shoes'.
Further into her living room, Rakhi has put up a sheet of paper with various rules to be followed in the house by Elesh and herself.
These include - no pets allowed, no negative conversations, pray before morning and evening meals, respect each other, keep (the) house clean, make beds in the morning, house chores to be shared, respect guests in the house and no abusing, smoking or alcohol.
For NDTV Imagine's show 'Pati Patni Aur Woh', the duo, along with four other celebrity couples, have been relocated to five individual villas here and they have to take care of infants as well as adolescents in the course of the show that goes on air Sep 28.
Rakhi and Elesh got engaged in another reality show called 'Rakhi Ka Swayamvar', also on NDTV Imagine.

Elesh shouldn't be known as my husband: Rakhi Sawant
Sunday Aug 23 8:45 AM
Mumbai, Aug 23 (IANS) They got engaged amid much fanfare on national television but item girl Rakhi Sawant is worried about her Toronto-based fiance Elesh Parujanwala.
She is worried about him accepting her sexy image, his financial independence and, above all, she doesn't want him to be just known as 'Rakhi Sawant's husband'.
'Will Elesh be able to support me financially? I don't want him to be known as Rakhi Sawant's husband. I need time.
'I agree Elesh is educated and he comes from a wealthy family. But all of it belongs to his father. He has nothing of his own in Mumbai, not even a home. He needs time to settle down,' Rakhi, who selected Elesh through NDTV Imagine's reality show 'Rakhi Ka Swayamvar', told IANS in an exclusive interview.
She is also concerned about Elesh being comfortable with her sexy image.
'People are spreading dirty rumours about me. On the Internet they've morphed my face on naked bodies. Would Elesh be able to tolerate it?' asked Rakhi.
She is also disgusted by singer Mika's attempts to gain mileage out of her name.
'I'm really tired of people using my name. I don't want to give such people importance. I've learnt the hard way how to be dignified. Jesus has taught me to be calm. My good days are just beginning.'
Rakhi says she'll marry Elesh only when he becomes economically self-sufficient.
'I don't want him to be another Abhishek Awasthi (her ex-boyfriend) in my life. Yes, we're engaged. I like him a lot. But how can I hand over my life to someone who isn't earning a proper living?
'That's why we're going on another reality show to see whether we're really as compatible as we seemed on 'Rakhi Ka Swayamvar'. I didn't get enough time with him on that show. You and I saw his best face. Now I want to see the real Elesh.'
Her new show 'Pati Patni Aur Woh', which is likely to be aired next month on NDTV Imagine, is about parenting.
'I want to marry a man who can support me. In India, wives are supposed to be looked after by husbands, not vice versa. I don't want him to come and stay in my house. I want to live in his house. I will wait for him to afford a house.
'I know Elesh is a decent guy. But is that enough? He has to be financially independent. He needed a place and a face to latch on to; that's why he came on the show. Abhishek was so decent. But he was known as Rakhi's boyfriend.'
Rakhi's new show is about parenting, but kids give her a headache.
'I've a migraine problem. When a child cries, I get a severe headache. I don't know how I'll manage for a month with a stranger's child.
'On top of that I've to cook on the show. I can't cook to save my life. I don't know how I'll manage. I can't even use make-up. Can you imagine Rakhi Sawant without makeup?' she said.
Asked how she'll cope when she has her own kids, Rakhi replied: 'Apna bachcha to har koi paal leta hai...jaanwar bhi. I don't know how I'll cope. I think I'm going to lose my cool completely. So far people have only seen the good Rakhi Sawant. Now they'll see the real me.'
Speaking about ex-boyfriend Abhishek, she said: 'I still consider him my good friend. I hope and pray he finds a good girl. If ever in life he needs me, I'll always be there.
'If he needs me to be a dance partner in a reality show I'll gladly do the needful. He has supported me a lot. I'll always be thankful to him for getting my mother out of my life. That's one good deed he did. If Abhishek hadn't been there, I'd have not had the courage to break away from my family. I'd have been wallowing in mud.'
