Sonali has been the talk of Bigg Boss house ever
since she returned after her first eviction. Be it
Diandra, Karishma or the new entry Dimpy
everyone has gossiped about her way of talking,
flirting and even the way she does jhaadu'! But
Sonali's parents have come out to defend their
daughter in full gusto. Read on to know what Mr
and Mrs. Raut had to say about Sonali.
Q. Are you happy with the way Sonali is playing
the game?
Mrs. Raut: Sonali has proven to be a strong girl
in the show and I'm really happy to see her
become tougher in the past few weeks. Initially
when she cried a first few times my heart broke.
We love our daughter a lot and would support her
in every way possible.
Q. She's termed to be the laziest contestant this
season, is she the same at home?
Mrs. Raut: Sonali is the youngest in the house.
She has 4 elder sisters and all have been married
for good 10-13 years. Ujjwala, her sister, has a 9-
year old daughter. So since childhood Sonali has
been pampered a lot and we never gave her a
chance to work at home. She's her Daddy's
favorite girl at home. I think in the Bigg Boss
house also she's the youngest so others should
understand that and treat her with respect.
Mr Raut: Sonali is my youngest and I've always
treated her like a princess. And I'm happy to see
her play well in the show.
Q. Diandra says, and even Sonali feels, she won't
get entry in the house once she's out of the
show. Will that really happen?
Mrs. Raut: Why wouldn't we give entry to our
own daughter? She's my blood, my child,
obviously we'll welcome her with open arms.
Whatever said and done as parents it is our duty
to take care of our daughter and no one like
Diandra can tell us otherwise. In fact from the
time I've seen the physical fight between Diandra
and Sonali during a task I've been keeping unwell.
It pained me much to see Sonali in tears and the
way Diandra treated her.
Mr. Raut: I think Diandra is all big talk and
nothing like such is going to happen. Eventually
Sonali is the daughter of this house and we're
proud to have her.
Q. If we were to ask, whom do you like between
Upen and Gautam?
Mrs. Raut: I do not like Gautam at all. He doesn't
know how to talk and he talks very rudely to
Sonali. Upen, on the other hand, at least treats
her with respect. In retrospect I would not choose
any of the two.
Mr Raut: I think Sonali is mature enough to make
her own decisions. We do not force our decisions
on our children in any matter. Whoever will be her
choice we will accept it open-heartedly.
Q. Since Mr. Raut is a police officer, Upen and
Gautam are scared they might have to face him
outside the house. Your thoughts?
Mr. Raut: Haha, nothing of that sort will happen.
I'm a Retired Asst. Commissioner of Police and
unnecessarily I'm not going to talk to anyone or
raise this matter in any way. But yes I will like to
have a word with Ali. That is if he's ready to talk
to me.
Mrs. Raut: So many times Ali has mistreated my
daughter and they have had so many
altercations. I'm really not happy with everything
that happened.
Q. Who do you think is actually a true friend of
Sonali in the house?
Mrs. Raut: Everyone is playing a game so you can
never say who's being true to anyone. But till
now I think Praneet has supported her a lot and
she too supports him in return.
Q. If given a chance, any advice you would like
to give Sonali?
Mrs. Raut: I'll like to tell her that she's playing
well and should continue to do so. Be yourself.
My daughter never talks bad about others, not
even behind their back. Stay strong, stay tough.
And I think she has good chances of winning this
game.
