June 26, 2010:“Main kunwara kab tak baithu, meri shaadi karvao ,meri shaadi karvao”. So went the popular song in the film Jis Des Mein Ganga Rehta Hai, where Govinda is requesting people to find a bride for him. Well, the blabbering Rakhi Sawant is perhaps singing the same song as she is said to be tired of her single status.
News has it that the drama queen is keen to settle down in life and wants to go the swayamvar way again.
Says a source, “Rakhi has approached Imagine TV to find a groom for her again. Another swayamvar is simply not possible, but Rakhi herself is said to be pitching.

The sexy sirens in bikini tops and tiny cholis have certainly not escaped the notice of Censor Board which has given the upcoming Yashraj Films presentation Dil Bole Hadippa a U/A certificate because of some explicit skin show by Sherlyn Chopra and Rakhi Sawant.
The movie, starring Shahid Kapoor and Rani Mukherjee in lead roles, has Sherlyn playing a skimpily clad supermodel trying to lure Shahid. Rakhi plays Shanno Amritsari, a desi bombshell who shakes her booty for a dance company.
Though director Anurag Singh and producer Aditya Chopra wanted a U certificate, the Censor Board gave.

Possibly slightly exaggerating the event, Rakhi Sawant claims that Shahid Kapoor saved her life on the set of Dil Bole Hadippa. She was standing next to a lighting rack that had not been properly fixed to the ground. Shahid suggested she move away from it. "Today I'm alive, and that is just because of Shahid," she says, "I was about to meet with a fatal accident when he came to my rescue!"
Rakhi dismisses with disdain any talk that there was competition on the set between her and music star and actress Sherlyn Chopra. "My competition is with the biggies of the industry like Ash, Kareena and Rani Mukherjee not with this small time actress," she explains.
Meanwhile, confusion still reigns over whether Rakhi will actually marry Elesh Parujanwala, her chosen one from the Rakhi ka Swayamwar TV series. She has publicly derided him for not being financially independent of...
