Kanwaljeet Singh is entering the Bigg Boss 9 house in tonight’s episode. I actually caught up with him a few moments before he entered the house and he had the most hilarious and bitchy things to say about all the inmates.
On his wild card entry…
I’ve been following Bigg Boss since the first year. It’s like a 9 year itch! (laughs). For me it’s a cakewalk, let me tell you frankly. I’m so happy. I have followed it for so long. I was cribbing a little in the beginning, because I wanted to go in right at the start. But thank God I listened to the makers of the show, because now I know who I am dealing with. Now I won’t have the funny feeling in the stomach the contestants had on the first day “ki ab kaun next aa raha hai? Ab kaun next aa raha hai?” I know the little devils and the little angels in everybody now. I don’t have a game plan because at Bigg Boss you always have to expect the unexpected.
On Mandana Karimi
My first favourite was Mandana Karimi. I loved her because her nature is very close to mine – I’m straightforward. Love my the way I am, otherwise bye bye. And she’s not afraid to be herself.
On Rochelle Rao
The big surprise came as Rochelle Rao. Earlier, each time I saw her I wanted to shake her and say ‘come on yaar, stop leaning on your man… you look like a strong woman.’ Then she came as a sudden surprise when Rishabh Sinha came into the house. I loved that she gave it back to him with great dignity and style. She has class.
On Digangana
That little child should go out now. That Digangana is a misfit. It’s really like her parents have sent her ki jaa paise kamaa ke laa zabardasti… poor thing ya! Child labour! I’m sure she’s a sweet kid, but she’s being made to slog there for no reason. She’s like a little winded doll and each day she just thinks ‘arey if I don’t do it this week, mera paisa chala jaega.’ She goes and says some stuff in that voice of hers and she leaves. Her voice, though. It’s like a little Pomeranian is around. I’m a being a total bitch now, I’m sorry. But baandho kutta ko… bohot bhonk raha hai (laughs)!
On Rimi Sen
I want to kill Rimi Sen. She is such a sad case. She is my target, okay? You’ve signed a contract, you know the whole thing and still you’re doing so much drama that you don’t want to anything. I got put off by her so badly when Salman Khan gave her that finale ticket as a joke… what crocodile tears she had! Andar se bol ri hogi ‘thank God’ and upar se she’s criticizing the public.
And when I told him that Rishabh suggested she gives her money back and quits…
Where will she go now? Who’ll buy her? She’d have to get botox again to sell! (laughs) Also, she isn’t leaving the show at all, because the amount of fee she has to return, she’d never be able to pay in this life. And I hate that she goes on about ‘main audience ko yeh karunga, wo karunga’… what for, man? Thank your lucky stars they’re voting for you!
Prince Narula
The poor Prince Narula is a little puppy. I’m just going to put my magic wand on him, you watch! And not like that, haan? He’s too much of a baby for me. The muscles don’t attract me.
Suyyash Rai & Kishwer Merchant
That one is a Meena Kumari, the boyfriend! Suyyash Rai is crying for his girlfriend also, he’s crying for himself also. I don’t know anyone from before except for Kishwer Merchant because I used to bump into her at a few parties I think.
Aman Verma
I’d be surprised if I get along with Aman Verma. Because I can’t stand him! He does nothing at all. I’m just like ‘do something, darling.’ I’ve never met him personally, but I styled his clothes for a fan ad he was doing. You know what he did? The director called me and told me “Kanwal, make sure you give me an excellent belt because it’s a mid-shot.” I went and bought beautiful trousers, shirt and belt and I sent my assistant because it was an ad shoot. My assistant calls me and tells me Aman is throwing a fit and asking for shoes. I told him that the director gave me no shoes budget. This is the time Aman was at his peak and he was throwing his weight around, okay? And he takes the phone and tells me “Excuse me Kanwal, let me just inform you, I don’t even wear my own underwear on my shoot.” So now when I go to Bigg Boss, I’m gonna tell him “Hello darling! Did Bigg Boss give you chaddis to wear?” He’d be shocked when I remind him. I’ll tell him not to take it personally and we should just laugh over it.
What should we expect…
There’s going to be a fashion riot on Bigg Boss for the first time ever! I’ll be changing clothes 2-3 times a day. You know how much I love dressing up? 9 years of my life I spent with a very handsome Afghani boyfriend. So to impress him every time, I became a Dilliwala even though I am from Bombay. And now from many years I feel a little nangu if I don’t have a little stole on me. It makes me feel beautiful and complete. In the morning, I’ll be with my salwars and tshirts, in the later afternoon my pathani kurtas and shawls will come out. And at night, I’ll wear my silk lungi kurtas and go to sleep.
