Debina Bonnerjee marriage proposal

Debina Bonnerjee, who we last saw in Ramayan, is delighted with her new reality show Pati Patni Aur Woh for more reasons than one.





While the actress got to have a new kind of experience, she also got engaged to her boyfriend Gurmeet on the show.

She tells us about the marriage proposal: "I had never imagined that he would propose to me through the show. It was very filmy; he went down on one knee and asked me 'Will you marry me?' I said yes," she says. "Later on, he spoke to my dad and told him the good news. I'm now waiting for our parents to meet."

Debina also enjoyed the experience of taking part in the reality show. "Everything was new, but we had faith in ourselves that we would do our best. The show will do well because of its originality. We worked so hard to do our chores that we sometimes wondered if it was real or reel-life."

The actress had to cook food while Gurmeet had to buy vegetables for us and food for the baby. She says, "Our baby was very good but we had to clean its potty ourselves as there were no maids. We couldn't even scold or beat the baby because the real father would immediately show up. It's very difficult to clean up other children's potty and I have realised that we won't have children so soon."

With all the work on the show, Debina ended up losing five kilos. "There was so much work and I had to take of our baby, so my weight naturally dropped to 53 kg. I hope I maintain the same weight."

Looks like the show worked for Debina on all counts.

Shilpa on Pati Patni aur Woh

Shilpa Sakhlani-Apoorva Agnihotri are ready to be parents on screen for their upcoming reality show Pati Patni Aur Woh. Shilpa and Apoorva spoke to us in details about it.

Apoorva says " What excited me is that handling a baby for the first time in my life is something different. Anything which is unknown or I had not experienced before is always exciting. And we accepted this show to have an experience, it has a different concept. Babies are going to be most interesting part of the show, they are very unpredictable. There cannot be any fabricated entertainment here."

Shilpa says that she has an experience of handling babies in the past."I did take care of my brother's babies or even my cousin's babies but that was for a limited time. This is a completely new ball game altogether. We have to do this task."

So who will do the big job in taking care of the baby?

Apoorva replies "She will work, she is going to go out, she will take care of the kid, she will clean the potty, in this show I will just back her. When you are with kids the big challenge is that they cannot talk, we have to understand that what- why they are crying, what is their problem, we have to keep focus on them for almost 24 hours. When they are awake you have to be awake. You entire schedule gets changed. Shilpa adds "Even though kids are going to be there for few days, it is more than enough for you, as they will bajao your band in that duration."

Apoorva says:"Like some time back one baby was crying and in those five minutes the couple was so tense, because of that they were trying to find out what exactly is wrong with her. If the baby is of eight months old that baby is aware of the touch of her mother and here these babies will be with different people suddenly .It is not going to be that easy."


Are you looking forward for a girl child or a boy?

"Girl child, I am looking forward to have a really sweet baby toddler, where I can watch the baby for the whole day and that baby can do the same thing with me, you keep kissing the baby. I really want a very cute doll type baby and I can decorate her whole day, I will make her wear frocks and tie her hairs in plaits. I am mostly dreading the phase when you get a young boy in the house. All they want to do is play with machine guns and there are questions about all sorts of weird stuff on TV, those questions of girls I can answer but questions about machine guns and all I can't answer, then they will want to pick lizards and make me scared so I am just dreading these things. If my son comes with a lizard to my house I will pass out and then lock him in the loo. But I am very positive that it is not going to happen," quips Shilpa.

You will have a small budget in the house, so how will you manage that?

"It is better if we think less about all those things, because since we have accepted this show we have to do all these things. Why we need to stress ourselves by thinking about it. My husband is a very hard working fellow, I am sure he will do that here also."

Shilpa informs that she is a good cook but if Apoorva has to cook she will only get to eat a variety of eggs. On the other hand Apoorva says that he is a baby at home.

The shows will have all the stages right from pregnancy till handling a grown up child. The show is expected to start in September end.

Yes you have guessed it right we are talking about the show Pati Patni Aur Woh. We all know the nautanki of Rakhi and that can be seen in each and every episode of the show. Our khabroo from the sets reveals one incident which reminded Rakhi about herself.

"Rakhi got the son and Debina was the only one with the daughter. This is where the two met and also thought of their children's marriage," informs the khabroo.

Elaborating more on the incident, our source, "Rakhi came in the house of Debina with her son. Both the mothers and their children sat on the couch busy chatting. While in the midst, Debina's daughter just slapped Rakhi's son and there was some hullabaloo."

"After a while Rakhi took his son and left but before going she told Debina jokingly that her daughter is just like her (Rakhi) and she will be a perfect bahu for their family," the source grins.

Jaise ko taisa… hope Rakhi in real too you get your perfect bahu!!!

Elesh only added to my misery: Rakhi

Rakhi Sawant pleads guilty to being a volcano for letting 'egg-faced fianc' kiss her on air. If Elesh is a bum, wiping Jay's bum ickier still
Rakhi Sawant More Pics
and ickiest was when mother Jaya Sawant entered Bigg Boss just to spite her.

You seem to be in a pitiable state in Pati, Patni Aur Woh...
I feel I've been through hell. Once Swayamvar got over, I thought with this show, I'll get to know Elesh (Parujanwala) better. But it didn't turn out to be what I thought it would be. Taking care of a child like Jay is a huge responsibility. So far, I knew how to dance, act, but had no clue what it takes to clean a child's bum. Elesh only added to my misery. The only areas he could prove his worth were dishwashing and romance. I had to do the rest.

Seems like you are preparing the ground for starting your own family...
It goes without saying that I've matured a lot. I'm more hands-on with the daily chores of married life. In fact, I'm so attached to the child that I've even refrained from giving interviews to the media when my kid was crying. At the same time, I've consciously tried to not bond much. In the past, everyone I'd loved — my father, mother and even boyfriend Abhishek — left me. Main zindagi se aur zyada umeed nahin rakhti. Yet when certain couples would fail to look after their child on the show, I would be very annoyed. But starting a family doesn't top my list of priorities. I'm rather scared now. I'm not marrying in the next three years.

It's speculated that your relationship with Elesh is over...
I'm a little upset with him. If I'm putting in my cent per cent, I expected Elesh to put in at least 70 per cent. But it goes without saying that Elesh is a nice man. Lekin hamesha achhe log apke liye utne achhe nahin hote. He did nothing for the child. Moreover, his Hindi skills are suspect. Usko Hindi ayegi toh hi toh woh bachha kuchh seekh payega!

But then, Elesh and you did kiss on the show...
I had warned him at the very beginning that I'm an Indian girl and closeness before marriage is not acceptable in our culture. He agreed. But there came a time, when he knew that there's no way I could run away from the show. It's then that he kissed me. Let's accept that I too am a human being. If Elesh touches me, I'm bound to respond. Main koi barf nahin hoon. Rather, I'm a volcano. After kissing, Elesh told me, 'Sorry baby, you are my fiance'. In fact, four times he had joined our beds and four times I had separated them.

The show ran into trouble what with the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights sending a notice to the makers asking them to stop its telecast on the pretext of child rights violation...
Now, this is really stupid! If parents don't have any problems, why should anyone else? The other day, Jay's mother called up to thank me as the child has got an offer to be part of a film. In fact, I was the one to tell her that she shouldn't be pressurizing her child at such a tender age! There are a lot of shows, which have child actors/anchors. The same rules should hold true for them as well. I think certain people are trying to gain mileage out of protesting against the show.

Your mother, Jaya Sawant, was seen shedding tears that you didn't invite her on Swayamvar on the very first episode of Bigg Boss...
My mother has bagged the offer to be part of Bigg Boss because she is my mother! People don't know what I've gone through as a child. I don't regret not having invited her to my swayamvar. We are both on level ground now, with she not having told me about taking part in Bigg Boss. She's going to realize my worth and understand how difficult it is to earn money. So far, she has only treated me like a moneymaker. Since 10, I've been earning money. I not only paid my college fees, but also that of my brother's. I even got my sister married. At some point of time, I would serve food at wedding for a meagre Rs 100. God bless my mom. I still feel for her. Just that I'm never going to return to her.

Elesh hits back at Rakhi

Elesh Parunjanwala has hit back at fiance Rakhi Sawant for her statements about his financial instability and her claim that he wanted to move to Toronto post-marriage.





The Toronto businessman has said that he tried his best to make the relationship work and had hoped to move to Mumbai and settle down with the item girl. He was quoted in print as saying, "I tried my best to understand this woman, but failed. I tried to know her past; I tried to understand her moves. I tried everything, but failed. But Rakhi never tried to understand where I am coming from. Her notion about NRIs is so limited. I think it based only on watching movies and TV. Rakhi needs to understand that real life is different from reel life."

He clarified: "Honestly, I never told her to settle in Toronto. She can always travel back and forth. What is wrong if I suggested that when we have a baby, he/she should be born in Toronto? I have my parents there and they would be a support system to my family. Is this wrong?"

About Rakhi's accusation that he isn't financially unstable, he said, "What does she mean by saying that I don't have money? That is all so stupid and unnecessary. I am studying and have decided not to take money from my parents. I want to be an independent person. Am I doing something bad? I am shocked by the allegations." He added, "Anybody else in my place would have sunk into depression. Had it not been for the support of my family, I do not know what would have happened to me. I do realise people have their own reasons to try to make others feel small and bad in the eyes of the public, so that they can gain sympathy. However, I am hurt. The controversy and the humiliation that I have been put through are tremendous."

Celeb couples on NDTV Imagine's Pati, Patni Aur Woh are experiencing all kinds of surprises! Recently, the couples were in for a sweet surprise
Rakhi Sawant and Elesh More Pics
when they were given two pre-teen kids and cute pets.

Juhi and Shilpa – true animal lovers – were more interested in knowing the schedule of the dogs, rather than that of the kids. Debina was so excited, that she made it very loud and clear to Gurmeet that she too wants a pet in their own house, whether he likes it or not. Mouni-Gaurav, Rakhi-Elesh were the unlucky ones who did not get pets. Elesh got a shock when they were given three daughters! His concern was genuine, as handling one woman was getting difficult for him, now he would have to handle four women at a time. This and a lot more is happening on the show. Watch Pati Patni Aur Woh, Monday-Friday at 10.30 pm on NDTV Imagine.

This is what happened to one of the couple, Gurmeet and Debina of Pati Patni Aur Woh. Soon the show will see the teenage group coming in the show where in the kid given to this particular couple refused to go with his real parents.

"Yes it's true that the kid given to us got so attached that he refused to leave us and go to his real parents. That was the most difficult moment for us as we know what all things we had to do to get him back with his real family," said Debina.

Elaborating more on that particular moment, the actress adds, "There were limitations for us as the kid was not ours but somebody else. The main factor was that we cannot yell at them neither can do anything that makes them cry so we had to behave in a very calm manner."

"What ever he demanded from us, we tried and gave it to him and I think this is what made him feel more comfortable with us. His real parents were strict with him but we weren't and thus he refused to go back to them. We had to trap him in such a manner that he gets out of the house. What was the idea is something you need to wait and watch," she concludes.

Pati Patni Aur Woh has definitely got its share by gearing more and more eyeballs. Let's see who at the end will become a dotting parent.

Pati Patni Aur Woh is gearing up for a competition between the families which will be judged by the dance maestro Saroj Khan and Narayani Shashtri. There were two families who took away the cake.

"Firstly there was a competition between the children where Parth, the child of Gurmeet and Debina won the title from Saroj Khan," chirps the source.

Explaining more on their acts, our khabroo verbalize, "Saroj ji gave Parth a nick name that of Monkey and praised the duo by stating that they make the best parents as they understood the capacity of their child and accordingly choreographed the song."

There were three levels of competition where in firstly the children performed and the next were between the ladies. The last was the contest between the families where all performed.

Narayani was the second judge in the show which was like a shock for Mouni. "Mouni was taken a back when she came to know about Narayani but at the end it seemed to be a family affair when the latter declared Gaurav's family as a winner in the competition," adds the source.

Let's watch it out ourselves of whether there is still fire between the two exes' or not?

Narayani won't hurt ex's girl Mouni

In yesterday's episode of Pati, Patni Aur Woh, TV actor Gaurav Chopra's ex-girlfriend Narayani Shastri walked in with choreographer Saroj Khan
Narayani Shastri
as a special judge for a dance competition.

On seeing her, Gaurav's current flame TV actress Mouni Roy (and the guy himself) seemed jittery and shaken. When we contacted Narayani, she said, "I don't know why people make such a big issue out of it. Gaurav and I have known each other for donkey's years. We are extremely close friends and I still maintain that. Mouni is like my younger sister. I will never do anything to hurt them."

Then why were they taken by surprise on the show? "The channel asked me to come on the show and I accepted. And if Gaurav and Mouni looked shocked, they know the reason better. It could also be a brilliant editing job, maybe an attempt from the channel to garner TRPs."

But Mouni hasnt been very kind to Narayani when confronted by media. Narayani irritably adds, "The media must be asking Mouni questions which upset her. In a fit of anger or stress, she may have said things that I'm sure she didn't mean."

Well, whatever the case Narayani, even you seem hassled... Hope it's not because of your guy (oops, best friend!) dating your 'younger sister'!

tea party.

Who can ever forget the unconditional love of doting grandparents, who pamper us rotten by stuffing us with our favorite food, who put us to sleep with stories of kingdoms far far away and not to forget our loving shield that protected us when we were just about to get spanked by our parents?

These are fond memories that bring tears of joy in everyone's eyes. With the teenagers gone, it is now time for the grandparents to come into the lives of our celebrities. A letter along with the photo of the grandparent ordained to stay with the couple was sent to the five homes instructing them to meet their guest at 5pm for a tea party. The action is hotting up!
