The speculation over Vinit's mysterious girlfriend on Zee TV's Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2005 has fuelled everyone's curiosity. The man in question, Vinit is playing his cards close to his chest and says that he will reveal all only in the last episode.
According to sources, the girl in question is Himani who was voted out a couple of weeks back.
An insider on the show says, "It is Himani and everyone knows it on the sets. Vinit was very upset when she was out of the show. He hugged her and cried. He could not control his emotions. All this made his love for her very apparent."
The cat-and-mouse game continues, with Himesh Reshammiya adding to the confusion. "I am the only person who knows who his girlfriend is, I will announce it in the last episode. He's dating one of the four- Himani, Nihira, Ujjaini or Riktima."
When we contacted Himani for her version, she said, "I am very close to Vinit. I have known him for many years. We first met on the sets of Antakshari and that's how we became friends. I know people think that we are seeing each other but it's not true. In fact, he has a girlfriend in Lucknow but she is yet to confess her love for him. Vinit is my best friend and I can trust him completely."
When we finally contacted Vinit, he initially tried to mislead us saying that he has a girlfriend in Lucknow. "I met my girlfriend four years back at a singing competition. She was here for my birthday." Later, he confessed that his lady love was very much part of the show, "Yes, seeing that you know so much already, I must admit that I am seeing someone on the show. She is my guiding force."
Is it Himani? "No, it's not Himani. Everyone feels so, but it's not her. I agree that she is my closest friend. I cried a lot and was very upset when she was voted out. I think that's why people think that we have a relationship." He adds, "My girlfriend was voted out long back and all I can say is that she is from Mumbai."
Going by what Reshammiya said, the only contestant among the four from Mumbai is Nihira. So is it Nihira or Himani?
• I am very close to Vinit. I have known him for many years and can trust him completely— Himani
