Rakhi Sawant slaps boyfriend on V-Day

On a day when lovers express their feelings, drama queen Rakhi Sawant humiliated her boyfriend in front of media cameras. Just three days before, Rakhi had kicked her boyfriend Abhishek Awasthi out of her Oshiwara house after a bitter spat in which Abhishek reportedly called her dirty names that Rakhi did not like much. Now, on Valentine’s Day Abhishek went to Rakhi’s house with a bouquet of red roses and a teddy bear to apologize, reconcile, and be with her again. On his visit, Abhishek also invited mediapersons with him to make his reconciliation public. But what he got in return from Rakhi was humiliation. Initially, Rakhi was surprised to see Abhishek at her doorstep with mediapersons. But when Abhishek apologized and presented her the bouquet, Rakhi got angry and slapped him hard in front of TV cameras. But Abhishek was not to be daunted. He got on his knees and begged her for forgiveness. Rakhi did not relent and asked the security personnel of her building to throw Abhishek out. When security did not intervene and Abhishek did not budge, Rakhi relented and asked Abhishek to apologize in Marathi and swear on his mother (maa ki kasam) that he won’t repeat his actions again. Poor Abhishek did what he was told and reconciliation looked possible between estranged lovers.

Rakhi Sawant feels belittled on dance show

Rakhi Sawant is upset with Karan Grover and Kavita Kaushik - her fellow contestants on TV dance show "Nach Baliye " - as they did an act based on her unpleasant kissing controversy with singer Mika Rakhi went visibly pale when Karan and Kavita started their ig on STAR Plus' competition. She said that if they had warned her, she would have stayed backstage. I went blank when I saw them. My heartbeat stopped. If they had warned me about what they were going to do I wouldn't have come to watch from the audience," Rakhi told IANS. "I became so tense anything could've happened to me. Then what would have happened to my act which followed this piece of unauthorised dirty dancing?" rakhi had made headlines when she accused singer Mika of forcibly kissing her. Rakhi openly accuses her colleagues of catty behaviour. "They're trying their best to demoralise me. If it's not fellow dancers like Karan, then it's Kashmira Shah giving me hell. The kind of names and comments I get to hear would make any other girl give up. "She says he partner is her only source of inspiration. "My partner Abhishek tells me to ignore all this. But when you rehearse for a week and then just before your act you're shaken by someone trying to belittle you, then it does seem like sabotage. Karan and his partner could have done anything in the 'ched-chad' special. Why pick on something from my life?" "In the same episode Abhishek and I replicated Gopi Krishna and Sandhyaji's immortal dance number 'Ja re hat natkhat' from 'Navrang'. There's a decency to be observed...I felt very bad. If the other contestants don't have it in them to do something so classical, why be openly jealous? I praise The other contestants ... No one encourages me. Very frankly, Abhishek and I don't need anyone's encouragement. "The item queen says this is not the first time she has been subjected to demeaning comments."No one was there for me when I started out. Producers would openly ask me to sleep with them. I had to hear vulgar comments and propositions. I've kicked and crawled up. And I will do my best for my boyfriend. I want Abhishek to be a bread earner like me so we can walk through life shoulder to shoulder. She has currently set aside her entire career for "Nach Baliye". "There's no time for anything else. We get one week to prepare for every episode. Within that period we've to make sure we're the best. And then the last thing I need is for other contestants to pull me down. They say an item girl can never be an icon. That really hurts. Am I not a human being? Don't I have dreams? All the contestants are secretly working against me all the time."
