Salman Khan owes me an apology: Shakti Kapoor

Salman Khan owes me an apology: Shakti Kapoor

There was a time not so long ago when this successful screen baddie-turned-comedian was shunned by many in his filmi fraternity as asting operation on telly wrecked havoc in the still waters of his social life.

But, Shakti Kapoor has put all that behind and worked towards changing his image with great tenacity. His stay in reality show Bigg Boss-5 helped him a lot where he earned the respect of many housemates. After his reality tryst, Shakti is now courting life in a serene manner. You find sincerity in his voice, when he says: 'I've become more patient now, and value my family more than ever.""

My signing amount: Double the winner's booty

He came out of Bigg Boss' house sometime back. But, what's his take on the sizzling drama going inside the celebrity house these days, with abuses flying thick and fast after his departure? In a philosophical tone, he replies: ""I enjoyed my stay in the house, where my signing amount was much more than the winner's booty, and my weekly payment was as much as any inmate's total stay package. But now, I see people doing all kinds of antics for TRPs. In fact, there you have to survive in weird situations with hardly any sleep or enough food. So, many people react wildly in those adverse circumstances. I'm glad I'm out, but I really want Siddharth to win the show."" And who's the most irritating candidate inside the house? Shakti replies with a laugh: ""He may not be all that irritating himself, but Akashdeep Saigal's laugh irritates me a lot!""

'I won't go to Salman's house!'

He may have earned a good amount of moolah, but he also earned sarcastic comments from the show host Salman Khan. Ask Shakti if all's well between the two of them now, and he replies very forthrightly: ""Salman Khan owes me an apology! Firstly, he and Sanjay Dutt didn't greet me, whereas they had accorded this courtesy to all the inmates. And then Salman said 'Bigg Boss ko man-na padega! Shakti Kapoor jaise logon ko apne ghar bulaya, hum toh kabhi na bulayen!' I would like to tell him that even if invites me to his house, I may not want to go there! He made those scathing remarks without any provocation, so he has to say sorry!
