Chopra 'Win'fray

Rakhi Sawant thinks Priyanka Chopra's NB3 appearance for Aamir-Sanjeeda will swing viewers votes away from her

By: Tushar Joshi


Last week Star decided to add a new twist to Nach Baliye 3. The brief given to the contestants made it clear that each couple could invite one of their star-friends to help them garner votes from the audience. All the jodis were told in advance to 'book' out for a celebrity's date for the shooting.
Priyanka Chopra agreed to make a friendly appearance to support her friends —Aamir Ali and Sanjeeda Ali. But PC's presence on the show caused undue drama, courtesy Rakhi Sawant.
A source from the set reveals, "Rakhi was shocked when she saw that Aamir had managed to rope in a big star like Priyanka Chopra for the 'celebrity friend' episode. Her anger stemmed from the fact that she hadn't been able to get any A-lister to support her. The source reveals, "Rakhi had tried frantically to get a big Bolly name to support her but everyone refused because of prior commitment."
She couldn't believe that Aamir had managed to get Priyanka and believed that the channel had some hand in it. She even walked up to Aamir and asked him how he managed to get such a big name."

Ab mera kya?

Rakhi confirms, "Unfortunately I couldn't get anyone. I tried everyone from Karan Johar, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Ravi Kissen to Dilip Saab. But everyone was busy with their work and couldn't change their schedules. Now the only one person who I can turn to, for votes, is God himself!"
Rakhi believes that Priyanka endorsing Aamir-Sanjida will affect her scores, "Who will vote for us now ? Priyanka is a huge super star, if she tells the audience to vote for Aamir they will do that. I wish the channel had tried to get someone for us. They know so many big actors, it would have been nice to have someone campaign for Abhishek and me as well." Finally she suddenly gets into the 'Mika' mode and says that now only her fans can save her, "My junta and my hard core fans will vote for me. So what if I didn't get any big star to stand by me, I gave faith in my fans!"

Aamir's 'celeb'speak

Aamir laughs off the rumours that the channel helped him get Priyanka to help him score more votes, "This is highly ridiculous. I know many actors from the film industry but I don't go boasting about them. All I can say is that it's the audience votes which has got me where I am. Only they can make us win the show."
When asked about his equation with Priyanka, he simply said, "I've known her a really long time. She was shooting close to our sets for Drona, and very sweetly accepted my invitation. What's wrong with that? It's not my problem if others couldn't find anyone to support them."

this is so annoying rakhi! i mean when SRK came he was saying good things about u and talking about u in MHN u didn't mind then, but when another star praises another jodi u get frustrated! are rakhi thodi si to sharam rakho, u think u r the only one who deserves to win, itna over confidence acha nahin hai! kash-krush and rakhi stop bashing amir-sanjeeda u guys r mad because they got higher scores, rakhi gets mad whenever anyone else get's higher votes than her! so tacky, please get a life! aamir just called priyanka to support him, i'm sure he didn't beg her to tell the audience to vote for them! unlike u rakhi! rakhi just mad that everyone ignored her offer, she's jealous that aamir knows, john, shahid, kunla etc.! GROW UP!

I dont mean to sound snooty.. well may be I do 😉 but I don't think any celebrity wants to publicly endorse Rakhi. They may have kind words for her; but to be her brand ambassador? I dont think so. And who can blame them, really?

That's rude to say! I'm not rakhi's biggest fan or anything, but I do have respect for everyone...and if people say good things about her, but avoid to endorse her than those people are hypocrites...and those are the people that you should be talking about...why put Rakhi down? and I really do believe that people do have busy schedules...Pri Chopra probably knows Aamir for the longest time maybe that's why she came! give Rakhi a break guys! everyone has their outbursts and controversies!

and As for Aamir and Sanjeeda..I don't think they need any celebrity to endorse them...they are perfect! they will be in the finals with Rakhi and Abhishek for sure! then it will be VERY Tough!

Priyanka Chopra supporting a couple doesn't mean that the couple is winning.It is more of Audience vote and their hard work.It all shows Rakhi's fear.
