Rakhi Sawant gets candid
Bollywood's very own item girl Rakhi Sawant is always in news for more than just being an item girl. She recently has come up with her own music album, appeared on Koffee with Karan and done a lot of social services. One side of Rakhi which none us knew was her love for social work. But with the recent campaign for PETA she left everyone spellbound.
You've
been
supporting
a
lot
of
social
causes
off
late.
Any
particular
reason
for
that?
It's
not
like
I
decided
to
do
good
work
suddenly.
I
always
had
intentions
of
doing
good
work.
And
it's
not
like
today
I
have
a
lot
of
money
and
so
I
am
doing
good
work,
I
have
always
been
doing
social
work.
You
made
it
to
the
front
pages
of
national
dailies
with
your
support
for
PETA.
Why
did
you
decide
to
support
such
an
unconventional
cause
of
preserving
circus
animals?
It
felt
really
good
to
see
my
photograph
on
the
front
page
of
The
Times
of
India.
This
isn't
the
first
time
that
my
photo
has
appeared
on
the
front
page
of
a
newspaper.
I
felt
proud
that
I
have
taken
the
right
decision
by
becoming
the
ambassador
for
PETA.
I
am
happy
that
the
step
I
have
taken
will
create
a
lot
of
awareness
about
animals.
Anuradha who is PETA's head told me that they wanted to try out a new concept with me. They said that everyone wears clothes but we will paint your body. I asked them whether it would be allergic and they said not at all. People will feel that Rakhi Sawant is a real tigress and we want to bring out the tigress out of Rakhi Sawant. So, they felt I was a tigress and they painted me accordingly. They said that you are a real tigress who fights everyone.
I read the entire story and even they told me how in the circus twenty one animals were burned because of the fire. All the people ran for their lives and left back the animals who were burned to death. I saw the photographs and felt how someone can be so cruel. Those people just ran away leaving the poor animals behind who were their means of livelihood. When I think about the injustice towards these animals or the government's decision to get the five banned animals back in circus, I am not sure under what pressure they doing all this. This should not happen.
What
do
you
want
to
say
to
your
critics?
I
will
let
my
critics
know
that
let
god
keep
you
happy
and
try
as
much
as
possible
to
criticize
me.
Even
Gandhiji
and
Jesus
had
such
kind
of
criticism.
If
people
feel
that
I
am
true
anywhere
then
they
will
love
me.
Believe
in
me,
that
I
never
do
anything
for
publicity.
Because
of
your
love
I
have
got
so
much
fame
that
I
have
become
an
item
girl
for
media
and
media
will
never
leave
Rakhi
Sawant.
"Let
my
audience
know
that
I
believe
in
Jesus
and
Ganapati"-
