Barely ten days into their engagement, Rakhi Sawant and Elesh Parujanwaala will now do that baby thing on a brand new reality show called Pati, Patni aur Woh on NDTV Imagine.
Rakhi Sawant and Elesh Parujanwala: No Prada, no Jimmy Choos. Babies are the latest accessories!
The show is the Hindi version of the hit international show, The Baby Borrowers, by Love Productions.
Pati, Patni Aur Woh will be produced by BBC Worldwide Productions India.
In the show, five couples between the ages of 16-19 babysit an infant for three days and then move on to look after toddlers, pre-teens, teenagers and finally an elderly person.
The Indian version will see the couples spend one complete month in a closed environment, which will be under surveillance 24X7.
Gurmeet Chaudhary and Debina Bonnerjee, Shilpa Saklani and Apurva Agnihotri, Rakhi Sawant and Elesh Parujanwala, newly-wed Juhi Parmar and Sachin Shroff, Mouni Roy and Gaurav Chopra are the five celebrity couples who will be participating in Pati, Patni Aur Woh.
“‘Patni, Patni Aur Woh promises to be an emotional rollercoaster through many unique situations, each handled differently by the various couples!,” said Shailja Kejriwal, EVP Content, NDTV Imagine, during the launch of the show.
Rakhi Sawant and Elesh Parunjanwala have different takes on the Pati, Patni Aur Woh show.
Elesh has been quoted as saying that “I am glad being a part of these preparations, as eventually it has to happen. The reel-life dad adds that in real life, he’d be happy with either a boy or a girl for his first child as it is God’s gift. I would like to have a baby girl.”
Rakhi Sawant, on the other hand, said when asked about more details of the show, “I don’t know. All I know is that I am going in a house just to have a picnic for one month.”
Mum’s the word about the babies though. I wonder what kind of people would want to pass around their babies on a reality show, especially the kind packed with hysterical celebrities.
