'Rakhi is hungry for publicity'

30 Dec 2007, 0000 hrs IST,HARSHADA REGE ,TNN

Aamir Ali and Sanjeeda Sheikh may have won Nach Baliye 3, but controversy queen Rakhi Sawant's accusations have given it a different turn. Aamir speaks to BT about the victory and the controversy surrounding it...

Has Rakhi's accusation of voting being rigged had any effect on your celebrations?

It hasn't made any difference. It just makes me realise how important this show was. I feel like I have won the world cup. Sanjeeda and I don't know how to express our feelings. About Rakhi, everyone knows that she has always been hungry for publicity. I understand that she's upset but you can't go around accusing the channel or fellow contestants just because you weren't given the trophy.

Rakhi says that you and Sanjeeda didn't speak to her once the final couples were announced?

That's not true. Yes, we were never best of friends. But you don't have to be friends with everyone that you work with right? We were cordial to them. I have no clue why she's saying this!

Did you expect her to react like this?

I thought she would be upset and react differently. She walked off the stage the moment the decision was announced. Everyone went to call her, but she wasn't sporting enough. She disrespected the platform and the audience. It didn't make sense. See it's not like she was the only one who was praying, but we didn't have cameras following us everywhere.

What's your equation like with her boyfriend Abhishek Awasthi?

I have never really interacted with him much, but he's a fabulous dancer. He doesn't speak much because Rakhi does all the talking.

Do you think people expected you to win?

There was no reason why we shouldn't have bagged the title. We have never been in the danger zone. We have always got good marks and people have voted for us. I am sure that after the unwanted controversy, people who had voted for them would have also voted for us.

How has the show affected your relationship with Sanjeeda?

Being together can either work for your relationship or work against it. Thankfully, for me and Sanjeeda it worked for us. But it's too early to think about marriage. Both of us are busy with our career right now.

I think aamir is seriously ticked off at Rakhi for saying all those rude things about him and sanjeeda because I haven't really seen Aamir talk alot and saying all these things, shows how mad he is and he's truly speaking his heart. I don't blame him I mean it was rude of rakhi to say all those things about him!

Way to go Aamir, Rakhi needs to know that you too can give comments and reply to her rediculous accusations. It's just another fact if you choose not to say anything, it shows that you were taught well.

😆 😆 😆...that is kinda tru though...hehe...😉😆

oh, and i also agree with his Rakhi-wasn't-the-only-one-praying point...i could go on to expand that further into her various claims of her and Abhishek having worked really hard and made alot of sacrifices for NB3...🤢it isn't as if Aamir and Sanjeeda had it easy, and i hope she realises that...they worked equally hard, if not harder since for Aamir, dancing is quite a task by itself, unlike Rakhi or Abhishek...😊and yeah, to her references of how much she was trembling before the results were announced, might we enlighten her that visibly trembling from head to toe isn't the ultimate expression of anxiety...😆standing still with your eyes closed is good enough to indicate trembling from within, like you could see in Aamir and Sanjeeda...the only visible, and most telling sign of their nervousness was how tightly they clung on to each other's hand...😳

praying doesn't only happen if you keep fasts and grab the first opportunity to yell from the rooftops so that the whole world knows...there is a certain dignity in silent private faith, which isn't any lesser than her brand of it...😊

i am glad he spoke abt this... he spoke before too on this issue but rakhi was still goin on with her insults. how long can a person tolerate if u call him useless, undeserving, needs 7 janams to be like her(rakhi) boyfriend. and accusations. i remember aamir invited all the contestants in his house to have lunch on the eid day rakhi came that day and things were fine between them but the day priyanka chopra came to support her friends aamir sanjeeda.. rakhi became mad and started abusing and gave interviews abt it and this was before final jodis were announced. its clear rakhi was the one who started it. i am happy aamir spoke about it.

I do not understand why people are always talking about this lady and giving her undue importance.People should ignore such woman.She has no intelligence,no class,no dignity.....nothing.But thinks she is the best.I have never come across such foolish,arrogant and mentally handicapped person.Oh my God,if she had won then I can imagine how her attitude could be!!!!!!!!!!!!
