Rakhi Sawant - ‘Kashmera Shah made me famous by playing my role'
Bollywood's celebrated item girl Rakhi Sawant loves publicity of all kinds - positive or negative. And she doesn't mind even if it comes from her rival Kashmera Shah."Whether she loves me or hates me, she has made me famous by playing my role," Sawant told IANS on telephone from Mumbai.
Shah apparently played an item girl named Rakhi who aspires to become an actress in a musical called ‘City of Dreams' held in Mumbai recently.
But the ‘Jungle' girl maintained that her role had no resemblance to Sawant.
Sawant, however, asserts that it was undoubtedly a character inspired by her life.
"Kashmera definitely played Rakhi Sawant's role in that play. It was entirely based on me," said Sawant, who has just won a reality dance contest, ‘Yeh Hai Jalwa'.
"But even if it wasn't Kashmera, somebody else would have surely played the role," Sawant added.
Asked if she would ever play a role based on Shah's life, she remarked, "No, never! I would never play any such role."
She added, "Kashmera is such a girl that you befriend her and then she would backstab you.
She never talks anything positive. I associate only negativity with her."
Sawant's remarks are a continuation of the war of words between the two Bollywood item girls.
Shah had recently said of Sawant, "I love to hate her and I hate to love her."
Sawant and Shah's rivalry goes back to Sony TV's reality show ‘Big Boss', where the two were participants. They started off as good pals but their relations soured during the show. The duo accused each other of maligning their image to gain sympathy votes.
Their relationship only worsened during reality dance show ‘Nach Baliye 3', in which they even took personal potshots at each other.
Rivalry apart, Sawant is currently basking in the happiness of finally winning ‘Yeh Hai Jalwa'.
