Bollywood News : India’s first televised ’swayamvar’ concluded here late Sunday with the famous Bollywood item girl Rakhi Sawant choosing Toronto-based businessman Elesh Parujanwala as her life partner in a unique reality TV show.

In NDTV Imagine’s ‘Rakhi ka Swayamvar’, Rakhi Sawant made the final choice from the three finalists — from the original list of 16 contestants in 26 episodes. The other two finalists were young aspirant Manas Katyal and businessman Chhitiz Jain, both from New Delhi.

‘I have been watching Elesh from day one. On and off the camera, he has been the same and has really taken care of me. He is everything I was looking for and I am glad to have found him on the Swayamvar. The swayamvar means finding a jeevan saathi (life partner) and I have found Elesh.

‘Today is our engagement. I am ready to get married now, but we need to understand each other better off camera. We will soon get married in front of all of you in keeping with all our traditions,’ Rakhi Sawant said after announcing her choice to a waiting audience across the country.

Decked up in red and gold lehenga-choli by Neeta Lulla and kundan jewellery, Rakhi Sawant looked a perfect bride.

In the dramatic finale round, Rakhi Sawant garlanded Elesh — as the audience clapped on.

The colourful event, held at the Hotel Leela Kampinsky here Sunday, saw a host of bollywood celebrities like choreographer Saroj Khan, actors Ravi Kishen and Ram Kapoor, who posed as brothers to the bride, apart from others like Smita Bansal and Sudha Shivpuri in the audience.
