Written By Jagadeesh Chandra | Updated: Oct 16, 2017, 07:50 AM IST

(From L-R) Rakhi Sawant, Baba Ram Rahim and Marina Kuwar

Actors Rakhi Sawant, Mayur Verma and Model Marina Kuwar speak exclusively with Jagadeesh Chandra, CEO, Zee Regionals about the ‘interaction’ with Ram Rahim, his likes, dislikes & daughter Honeypreet

For the last one month Ram Rahim is in news. What is your thought?

It pains when personal matters come on TV but if we do not speak then how will people know what he did with us.

How do you see the entire matter?

I am identified as the girl whose private parts were touched by Baba. Instead of appreciating me for exposing him, people taunt me. But I have to remain true to the truth. More girls have come forward after I spoke.

Honeypreet has claimed that she was like daughter to Baba. Do you believe it?

This is utter lie. I did not tell on a channel because I have a name and prestige. Ram Rahim used to ask Honeypreet for dance. He forced her to do mujra but he used to tell me that my place was somewhere else.

Where did mujra take place?

Hotel. He was very fond of mujra. After drinking, he wanted music. He used to tell me that he liked my songs. He told me that since I dance on TV, I should dance before him.

What dress did you wear for mujra?

He would want me to dance in short dress. Later, he would take out wads of currency notes. He had become Vishwamitra and I became Maneka

What denomination?

1000 and 500. Baba never used small notes. Honeypreet would throw money. Baba liked Sunny’s songs. Baba liked desi and videshi both.

Was Baba a sex addict?

Yes...I feel very cold so there was a powder Baba told me take it you will get hot.

Why did you take her there?

He told me they are making films and wanted nice girls. Introduced girls like Sunny Leone so I told Marina and went there with Mayur and her.

How did private part came into conversation?

(Marina) Baba was looking at me from head to toe. He was telling me how beautiful my body was. He said you are so beautiful why didn’t you get work. I said I do work but he said from now on you won’t do small roles. (Rakhi) I was happy that my friend would get work.

What did you get by flirting with Baba?

She didn’t get into trap

Baba was in loss?

How come? He enjoyed good time with her and saw my dance. (Marina) Whether Baba  got anything or not but what did we get.

How much he paid?

(Marina) He didn’t pay anything. We didn’t go there for payment. I went because Rakhi told me.  Honeypreet told me that papa ji wanted to talk to you so I went inside when Baba came behind me and grabbed me tightly. I was not able to say anything out of fear. (Rakhi) They gave us a drink after consuming that any girl would start removing her clothes.

You also did the same?

No…no ..We didn’t do that. I drank only a little. (Marina) While he was doing this to me I was in senses I could feel that something was happening to me. I was feeling bad.

How did you came out?

(Marina) I said I have to go out what Rakhi and Mayur would think about me. I came out with great difficult. I handled the situation very politely otherwise something worse could have happened to us. (Rakhi) Baba and Honeypreet also had eye on Mayur. If I was with Baba his property would have been in my name but I spit on such wealth.

Some people say she had done something with the property prior to her surrender?

She had wiped out all evidence in Sirsa. Now, how can Haryana police get information from her. Lawyers have told her that you don’t have to say anything we will save you. Nothing happened in Sirsa without Honeypreet’s signature.

I saw her interview. She looked quite docile?

(Marina) She is giving interview to media and saying that she is not that Honeypreet. He is my father. We know what sort of relations between father and daughter are. (Rakhi) Baba give same drink to his disciples then they handed over their property to him.

Some people say Baba is contemplating to contest election from jail?

He told me not to worry I will arrange ticket for you from the top. (Marina) People tell me why you are speaking today because you want publicity. (Rakhi) This interview won’t get us film. All we want is to reveal true identity of Baba. (Marina) Which girl would want to blot her honour in public

Women used to go to Baba for child?

(Marina) I have no idea but I have heard that when a woman is unable to conceive people used to say go to baba you will get child but I think Honeypreet was cheating Baba and somewhere Baba was also cheating her. Baba didn’t do anything without Honeypreet.

You were inebriated and did whatever Baba asked?

(Marina) I did not do any such thing. He didn’t try to get into bed with us. I haven’t done anything like that in my life and would never do. But I am an actress and if I have to take off clothes for a story I would do but if a person removes clothes in front of camera doesn’t mean same thing happens in normal life.

Honeypreet wanted to be Katrina Kaif. What was that matter?

Yes, she wanted to be Katrina, Kareena, Deepika and god knows what not.

How did you manage to come out safely from there?

(Marina) I deliberately called my mother and got Baba to talk to her. He told my mother not to worry about me because I was like his daughter. I would say if you want to keep physical relationship with someone that is not wrong but don’t pretend before the world that the girl is your daughter or sister. Today, we have come out in open and telling this to the world but there are many girls who are afraid to speak. I have no fear as media is with me. I also want to tell that there is one Sandip Mishra.  He is also accused of molesting a girl.. he has no manners to talk to a lady. He is like his guru.

Where do you figure in this entire story?

(Mayur Verma) Rakhi told me that Baba Ram Rahim want to make a Punjabi film and looking for a Punjabi boy. So we went to him. He saw me and said that you will play my son in the film. He said that since you are doing my movie you will have to do what I say. I said fine. Baba was interested in both girls and boys. I said I cannot do this stuff. Baba said those who refuse I make them impotent. Later, Honeypreet started calling me from her private number. She asked me to become her boyfriend. She said you want bungalow or car but I refused saying I do not want anything. It was their conspiracy to frame me. Baba and Honeypreet were in connivance. They were not father and daughter. She has removed her laptop and mobile. The court has rightly sentenced him to 20-year jail.
