Juhi and Sachin to raise a babyJuhi Parmar and her husband, Sachin Shroff, will come together again on TV, in the new reality show Pati Patni Aur Woh.
After their appearance on Hans Baliye, the couple has started shooting for the new show, in which they will have to live in a house with a baby. The show will show couples dealing with raising a child at all stages, from pregnancy till adulthood.
On their part, Juhi and Sachin say they would like a baby girl not just on the show, but in real life as well. "We would prefer a girl. I am praying to God, and hopefully he won't disappoint me," says Juhi. He husband adds, "It is better if we will have a girl the first time around, because then we won't have to try a second and third time, as she wants a girl."
Sachin also does not believe that they need to have a son to extend the family. "Nowadays, women can do everything men can do, and men should respect that. There are lots of families that do not have sons, but their daughters take care of them, giving them money and providing for them like any son would do." Juhi explains that her father always wanted two daughters as he thinks that girls are cuter and more lovable than boys, which she also believes.
The actor says that Juhi is definitely a mother at heart. "I am sure that when I am not around she will also take good care of the kid. She is a mother at heart," he says, adding, "The best thing about Juhi is that I told her once that if she could manage to cook food for me once a day it would be great. Our work does not allow us to go into kitchen, but she kept that in mind and, to my surprise, she cooks every day for me."
Juhi is also all praise for her husband. "I am still Juhi Parmar and he has no problem with that. He knows that I am attached to my family. I'm not going to forget my prior relations just because I'm married; that is why I am Juhi Parmar Shroff, I kept my maiden surname."
On the show, the couple will have to learn to live on a tight budget. Sachin says, "Crisis teaches you to manage. If the budget is insufficient, first the baby will get food, then it's Juhi's turn, and I am sure she will share whatever she has with me." Juhi says she has experience handling kids as she would often take care of her friend's child, and that Sachin is used to kids as he grew up in a joint family. She admits that, sometimes, she and Sachin too act like kids. "If I behave like a kid, he has to be mature and vice versa. However, in this show, we will have to keep our childishness away and concentrate on a kid."
The newlyweds believe that marriage is special. Sachin says, "There are exit doors available but no one wishes to go in a marriage. The commitment becomes stronger and more intense. Your families are also involved in it. It is a relationship that lasts for life." Juhi adds, "When you are in relationship but not married, you don't think beyond yourselves. But now we talk about our future, making a family; we have gone to the next level." Sachin, however, makes one thing clear – the romance won't stop. He says, "If the kid falls asleep, even for five minutes, we will continue with our romance."
