The latest issue of Showtime promises to be an explosive one. For one, it has Shweta, Rahul Mahajan's ex-wife opening up on her divorce, and her ex-husband's relationship with Payal Rohatgi on Bigg Boss 2.
Here is an excerpt from the interview from Showtime magazine:
It's the biggest show of the season and it's making all the waves that one expected. What was not expected was someone like Rahul Mahajan turning out to be the scene-stealer of the show.
Bigg Boss has all the spice; all the drama and it's Rahul who makes everything so interesting with his sometimes endearing and sometimes shocking antics.
The inmates of the house have been trying to get rid of Rahul for a while now but have been unsuccessful so far. Whether it's his political clout that's holding him back or the genuine affection that viewers seem to have developed for him, one doesn't really know. But there's no denying that he is the strongest contender for the winning post.
Of 13 years of courtship and two months of marriage
We don't know if this is the real Rahul Mahajan or if the guy is just fooling all of us with his clever and scheming ways. The only person who probably knows this best is his childhood friend and ex-wife Shweta.
One may recall that after a long courtship, when Rahul and Shweta finally decided to get married, it was a celebration of sorts.
They had known each other for 13 long years; they even learnt flying together in the United States. It seemed like a perfect match but the truth was something else. Just like everyone was surprised with the timing of the marriage (it happened just three months after the untimely death of Rahul's father, Pramod Mahajan), there were murmurs about the chinks in their relationship even before the couple had settled into matrimony.
The reports were further substantiated when just after two months of living together with Rahul, Shweta shifted back to her parents' home.
Shweta Mahajan, now Shweta Singh, is still trying to come to terms with her divorce. She is strong, independent and sensitive; though at times, she seems a bit unreal too. Right now, she has many plans to discuss and is looking forward to a new lease of life but she wants to do it all differently and quietly.
'Rahul is a nice person but a little impulsive by nature'
When talking about the real Rahul; not necessarily the one we see on Bigg Boss, Shweta is candid enough when she says, "Ketaki Dave, while talking to someone on the show, has already mentioned that everyone is acting here. I am quite convinced with her views. Unlike others, I do not want to go in front of the camera and do some kind of acting. I am not interested in doing so. I do not require any kind of medium to highlight myself and talk about my personal life. Besides this, it is painful to scratch a wound repeatedly. It hurts me always," she says.
It's time to get specific with Shweta -- is this the real Rahul Mahajan, we ask her. She gives it a thought and then answers, "Rahul is a nice person but a little impulsive by nature. It is a little surprising to see that he has changed so soon. It may be all because of the cameras around him all the time... Everybody is there with some kind of an image. Everybody is acting and trying to clear up their mess. Therefore, I cannot comment particularly on anyone."
'I have no clue whether he is going to marry Payal or not'
We've seen Rahul and others excitedly cleaning bathrooms, washing utensils and sweeping the floor in the Bigg Boss house. Shweta believes the excitement is only for effect.
"It is good that the participants of the show are given tasks to perform and they are doing them... Most of them are just pretending. They do not do these things at home but they are doing it here just for the show. Everyone here seems to be very good at acting."
Of late, Rahul's intimacy with Payal Rohatgi is beginning to bloom on the show. Shweta prefers to uphold her dignity when she says, "I don't need to say anything on this. The media knows better about all this -- who he's moving around with and so on. There were media reports that he was seen with Payal in Sai Mandir in Mumbai. It is for him to react on this, if he wants to. Payal herself has said that she is in a relationship with him for the last six years, which I am completely unaware of. I have no clue whether he is going to marry Payal or not. That is their decision, which needs to be taken by them. All I can say is that what he is right now is completely different from what he used to be 10 years ago."
'I cannot talk much about my life because there are people who are staring at me all the time'
The sad part is that Shweta is still plagued with the distressing episode of her marriage.
She cannot hide her plight when she says, "I cannot talk much about my life because there are people who are staring at me all the time. I have to be a bit conscious about my words. Here, the condition is such that it's the survival of the fittest. I do not want to break the balance or harmony."
This is upto us now to decide wheather we want such leaders in our parliament or out of that......
