Buss aur kya, I sat in the plane. I asked a passenger, Cannes waali plane hain naa? Wake me up when Cannes comes. I am so tired naa, dancing non-stop, acting non-stop, dramabaazi non-stop. But what to do, when you are the Amitabh Bachchan of Indian television: yeh sabh karnaa parta hai.
I have heard Cannes has a film festival, where big-big stars & big-big directors come. I will ask for a full frontal meeting with Martin Scorcee-cee. I can also try for, in your face meeting with Tarantino, the basterd director. Salaa, he is just like me, poor in spellings, calls his film Ingluorious Basterds. He makes dhishum-dhishum movies, I will tell him, you must have a Rakhi item number in your next movie. I also want to ask Russel Crow...arre, why crow, dirty black, ugly bird. Why not Russel Cock, Russel Peacock? So many beautiful-beautiful birds to choose from.
Cannes mein pohunchee, what a weather. I told the taxi driver, open the doors of the windows, let the climate come in. I saw so many film stars. Eva Languriya, the desperate housewife. Natee si, kaali si hai...just like me. Kate Beckinsale wearing white frilly, fluffy dress, like it is her own happy budday party! I ask her, frock sale me liyaa kya? Kate Blanket bhi dikhee. Saree heroines kintnee phikee,phikee, aur mai god kitnee patlee.
Evening I went to this hi-fi restaurant Chez Astoux, I order butter chicken, they look at me as if I am mad. I tell them, kuch bhi le aao. Jeejuzz, the food all raw-raw and moving also. Hai-Hai, you take so much money and can’t even cook I shouted. Later I went to Disco7 for dancing-shancing. Only men? Where are all the women I asked? This is a gay club ma’am, I was told. Haan toh! Women can be gay and very happy. These people, so funny naa.
Next day I want to do some sight-seeing. Go to Nice and Monaco, I was told. Are you making jokes with me? These are biscuits I have with my Chai! How can I go there? Khair Chodo, I tried to have many backside meetings with producer types. All of them too busy uff. I wanted to stand on the rad carpet, nobuddy let me. They still do not know what a great-big star Rakhi Sawant is naa.
Next year, I will have Rakhi ka Swayamwar at Cannes. George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, even Jack Nicholson, all of them will be running after me with garlands. Then photographers will also be running after me for photos.
Chalo jaane do, before leaving me let me go and meet Ash. I heard due to Ash planes not flying in Europe. I wonder how she managed that?
very funny...even you are not taking rakhi sawant seriously..kum se kum..blog shog mein kuch patta tho dho bechaari ko..
ReplyDelete"Russel Cock, Russel Peacock"
ReplyDelete"Let climate come it"
"due to Ash planes not flying in Europe"
What witty man! It was fun to read. It seemed as if Rakhi herself is speaking...captured her dramabazzi realiy well! :)

Hilarious! ROFL! Did you happen to talk to Rakhi lately? It was so much like her. :)
ReplyDeleteI actually thought I will sit and watch a few of her shows to get it right. The very thought of it stressed me out.
ReplyDeleteSo it was good ole google and newsclips that came to my rescue.
Thanks Madhusudhan,Karan and Nethra.
GB...flattered :))
"I can do a lot of other things with snakes"....."Eva Languriya"....."Russel Cock"... "These are biscuits I have with my Chai!"......oh man !!! Priceless !!!

ReplyDeleteabsolutely rip roaring stuff!!!!!
phew....
Fucking awesome! =) Guess, you're too much inspired by Rakhi, eh? :P
ReplyDeletehahahaha :D hillarious take on Rakhi ... Rakhi never cease to entain us :P
ReplyDeleteI like this celebrity diary concept..Eagerly waiting for the next...wonder what she will go wearing if she is actually asked to walk the red-carpet..woh din door nahin...like ms.sherawat all she needs is to suck up to a chinese tiger or a hidden hollywood dragon...maybe the tiny choli blouse and the marathi koli style bottom..hahaha, will be hilarious...
ReplyDeleteWonderful Purba...never read a better piece!
ReplyDeleteI watched her yesterday with a tiny girl with whom she has a brawl on TV a year back...they danced together and then made up on TV...it was so put on that I needed to puke. She looks huge now...her face growing bigger by the day...the cartoon said it all.
love your writing, WAY TO GO!

Arijit..what to do, she is awfully, awesome.
Rajlakshmi...yea,gutsy and entertaining
Journomuse..am dying to do a Mamata Banerjee diary :))
Nalini...she thrives on attention. Doesn't she look like a man?
Purba......awesome post, reading your post felt like watching Raakhi sawant's interview! Your attention to detail is very good. Such a stupid actress, I dono why the media is trying to keep her in the news even though they themselves know that she is stupid.
ReplyDeleteRakhi ka swayamvar in Cannes... Brad Pitt and Clooney may be literaly at each other's throat to ge Rakhi... No wonder why there is a problem in Brad-Jolie family life...
ReplyDeleteAnyways all the truck load of bolly stras go to Cannes to make a joke out of themselves!!!
"due to Ash planes not flying in Europe" was best...
ReplyDeleteAnto, she is far from stupid, look how well she has managed her career.
ReplyDeleteJon, you think so? But the Indian junta loves lapping up the news and are never short of views.
Shrinidhi, thank you :)
It's Awesome ... sounds exactly like Rakhi ... poor she :)
ReplyDeleteLOl... amazing :):):).. very entertaining :)..keep going gal !!:)

ReplyDeleteya really.. I'm pretty sure this is exactly what she would have said. she's predictable.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely funneeee.. you have picked up Rakhi's style of speaking very well. If Rakhi sees this post.. I am sure she will immediately apply for a patent for her unique lingo.. you never know ..given her fan following in the idiot box it may one day become our 15th official language..
ReplyDeleteHa Ha! I'm gonna die laughin'... awesome..!!
