Salman Is A Male Chauvinist Pig Who Makes f**k-All Movies In Which He Dances Like A Monkey: Sapna Bhavnani
By Aditi Chordia - August 24, 2016
Sapna Bhavnani came into limelight when she participated in the reality show Big Boss, and we knew it from that moment she's one fierce lady. Not one to mince her words, Bhavnani is here to talk about issues which are otherwise underrepresented in the society.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, Sapna talked about her upcoming book, Chapter One, and also discussed Salman Khan and her experience in Big Boss.
"(It was a) f**k all experience. You have a male chauvinistic f**king pig (Salman Khan) as a host of this f**king show, that insults people, so people watch the show, and people worship him on the show because people want a job in one of his stupid f**k all movies where he dances like a monkey - that's Big Boss in a nutshell."
On why she chose to participate in the show
"They had been after me for the longest time. I had just come back from Europe and they were harassing me like, "Please come on the show." So I asked my mom that these people have been after my life to be on the show, "What should I do?" My mom looked at me and she was like, "You know, Sapna, women like you would never be represented on Indian TV. It's very important that you go on the show. You need to show the people of India that there are women like you in this country, women who have a voice, women who can't be bought by money, women who can't be bought by fame." She made sense, I went, my point was taken, my job was done."
On trolling and rape threats
"It's insulting to have an Indian man talk like that on an international platform. I am embarrassed to call myself an Indian when statements like these go out worldwide. I was very vocal about it on Twitter, and everywhere. I got a lot of flak for it, but flak or stalkers and trollers should not be the reason why you should stop voicing the truth.
It's (comments on Twitter) insane if you read some of the crap that was written... you'd know. Before I started blocking them, I was reporting them to Twitter, my point is to get them off Twitter, but when twitter was also not taking necessary action, I had to block them, because I couldn't let them affect my mental health. These guys are hired by the Khan and political parties... these people have zero followers, but every day they come to slam you."
On her gangrape at the age of 24
"I still don't know, if I have the guts to talk about my rape, but I can start a new chapter one of my life once it (rape) is out of the system, so there will be a chapter on that too."
"Being strong doesn't mean you can't cry. Just because you are strong you can't cry, you can't heal... it's a phase of healing , which you can't have. that's a wrong notion about being strong... they say you are a man you can't cry, that's not correct. And this strong woman image that I have, has been a curse in many ways. This is where I want to speak, this is the wrong notion of strength because people think if you are strong you can't do this."
On her new book
"I wrote chapter one and it was so good I could not do chapter two.. isn't that life? You are always trying to complete one thing in life and then you move on to the next. So this book is going to be about all the chapter ones in life, everything is a new beginning. People ask me if it is going to be non-fiction or fiction, but, if you can't tell, I am not telling."
