In the first season of Koffee With Karan, Mallika Sherawat seemed to be the star of the show, even though she never appeared on it.
Her name was mentioned in most of the episodes, and the star guests always seemed to have an opinion on her.
This season, the star seems to be Rakhi Sawant.
The starlet, fresh from her Bigg Boss success, has been talked about quite a bit on Karan Johar's chat show.
Now, Rakhi will make her appearance on the show, along with her Bigg Boss roommates Rahul Roy and Carol Gracias.
Excerpts from the show.
Karan: How do you feel being on the show?
Rakhi: Mujhe bahut accha lag raha hai. Mein bahut accha feel kar rahi hu, Manish ki sari pehen kar!
Karan: Manish Malhotra ka sari pehena hai aapne?
Rakhi: Mujhe bahut accha lag raha hai with the earrings, with the good bracelet and good purse! (Laughs)
Karan: To poore set ho?
Rakhi: Haa! Mujhe aisa lag raha hai mein Sushmita Sen, Rani Mukerji, Preity Zinta, Kajol lag rahi hoon philhaal! Mujhe aisa feel ho raha hai andar se!
Karan: Aapka mention bahut baar ho chukka hain, is season mein!
Rakhi: Haan meine dekha hai! Kiseene bahut accha response diya, kisine kuch aur kaha. Chalte rehta hai! No problem.
Karan: Jab aap bure response sunti hai, aapko bura lagta hai?
Rakhi: Nahi mujhe bura nahi lagta! Dekhiye, zindagi hain... kuch log accha samajhte hai, kuch log bura samajhte hai, sabki apni marzi. Theek hai. Unhe samajhna chahiye ke kisike baarein mein bolne ke pehle dus baar sochna chahiye ki us ladki ne kitna struggle kiya hai, kitna kya kiya hai. Meri jagah pe koi rehkar dekhe ki meine kitna struggle kiya hai.
Karan: Bachpan se aap sensational ho?
Rakhi: Haan! Matlab straightforward hoon! Jo bhi hain clear baat karti hoon, mere dil mein jo hain mein keh deti hoon. Isiliye mere daddy aur mummy ko mein pasand nahi hoon.
Karan: Yeh jo 'diplomatic' shabd hai that you don't understand at all!
Rakhi: Haan, pehle mujhe samajh mein nahi aata tha ki yeh shabd kya hain. Meine hamesha aise hi zindagi guzaari hai. Jaise school mein, college mein bhi first year hi kiya hain meine. Zyaada padi-likhi nahi hoon mein because middle-class families mein kuch problems hote hain Karan! Zindagi mein bahut sari cheezein hai jo face karni padti hai.
Watch Koffee with Karan on Sunday, April 29 on Star One and Star World, at 9 pm.
