Rakhi Sawant is back on television with her new show Ghajab Desh Ki Ajab Kahaaniyan, premiering tonight.

With this show, the drama queen plans to hear and 'solve' some bizarre cases of celebrities as well as common folk, as she conducts interviews with them.

Rakhi, who has been making news already thanks to her comments about Baba Ramdev and C-strings, tells us more about the show.

'The show is hilarious'

The promos look funny. What was it like shooting for Ghazab Desh Ki Ajab Kahaaniya?

The show is hilarious because you will get to see whacky and strange stories from across the country. I enjoyed the shoot, and the viewers will love it too. It will become a big hit. I have signed the contract for 54 episodes. With demand, it may get extended.

Can you talk about some of the weirdest cases?

There is this guy, who has not taken a bath for 37 years! He was on the show with his wife and seven children, and told us the reason for it.

Bina nahey usne saat bachey paida kiya bagwan jaane agar woh roz nathay toh kitne bachay paida karta! (without having a bath for so many years, he produced seven children. If he had bathed, I wonder how many children he would produce!)

In another strange case, a wife divorced her husband because he didn't buy her a burger.

'My only fear is that the C-strings may fall off'

It was reported that you demanded C-strings from the producers, which is not easily available in India.

Yes. I felt I should be the first celebrity to wear C-strings on television. I do not know whether actresses from the big screen have already worn it.

Most of the dresses I wear on the show are short and tight. It's important that panty lines don't show .So I told them to get them for me. I have already worn it on the show and it's really comfortable.

My only fear is that it may fall off. 

'I want to show Baba Ramdev that I can be a sexy sadhavi'

You had wanted to marry Congress leader Rahul Gandhi but it seems your admiration has shifted to Baba Ramdev now. Why?

I do 200-250 Surya Namaskar, Pranayama and Kapalbhati everyday. I followed Baba's yoga religiously for six months and lost 15 kilos.

He hates people from this industry and thinks that we cannot be good life partners. I want to prove him wrong and show him that I can be a good wife, actress and a sexy sadhavi too. I don't know what he thinks about me but main toh unki deewani ho gayi hoon (I'm crazy about him).

'I love him when he winks and gives yoga instructions'

But why you want to marry Baba Ramdev?

He is hot and sexy. I am impressed with his stomach. Haven't you seen his flat stomach?

I love him when he winks and gives yoga instructions. Once I marry him unki aankh fadakna bhi band ho jayegi (he will stop winking) (grins). Every time he winks, mujhe andhar kuch kuch hota hai (I feel something inside).  

I feel hot while during yoga as well, so I feel he's giving me the green signal. I am waiting for him to come and marry me. I will try my best to get Baba, if Imagine TV plans another Swayamvar for me (smiles).

Have you met him?

No. Now he's in trouble and I don't want to meet him and get beaten up. I don't know whether he knows me. But he will definitely know me after watching my show.

Watch Ghajab Desh Ki Ajab Kahaaniyan at 10pm on Imagine TV.  We wonder if Baba Ramdev will tune in.
