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.
