When Rakhi Sawant was in Bigg Boss's house, she apparently wanted her mother Jaya Sawant to move out of the flat they share. In the first week of March, Jaya will shift in with her son Rakesh at his MHADA flat.

Rakhi, who currently lives in Serenity Complex (Oshiwara) in a two-bedroom flat with her mother and boyfriend Abhishek Awasthi, has purchased a three-bedroom flat in the same complex where she will live with Abhishek.

She is expected to get possession of her new house by early March, but does not want her mother to join them in her love nest. The lady has been told in no uncertain terms by her daughter that she should leave by then.

When contacted, Rakhi admitted, "I don't know when I will get the keys to my new house, but yes, I have told my mother not to stay with us. I have nothing against her. She is a very good mother, but now I want privacy. Main jeena chahti hoon."

When asked how her mother would intrude if they continued to stay together, Rakhi shot back, "That's my personal matter. I don't want to talk about that."

Rakhi said she has given enough monetary compensation to her mother. "I am hardly left with anything from the money I got from Bigg Boss.

I have donated a certain amount to charity, and have given most of the remaining balance to my mother. I have also given her lots of jewellery and provisional accommodation in Four Bungalows, if she wants to stay there.

But I feel she won't stay alone; she will go to Rakesh's house. Honestly, maa ka ghar wahi hota hai jahan uska beta ho. So what's wrong if my mother lives with my brother?"

We called Mrs Sawant for her take. The last time she spoke to us, she had expressed her helplessness about the situation. This time, she put up a brave front. "Meri beti achchi hain. I don't want to talk anything about this," she quipped.

But Rakesh (who lives with his wife and two kids) was as forthcoming as Rakhi, "My mother is not going to speak badly about Rakhi.

The truth is that she will be staying with me from March 1 and is most welcome here. I have two bedrooms and I will give one of those to her.

Zaroorat padi to main apne room se bahar chala jaoonga, lekin un par takleef nahin aane doonga."
