The Samir Soni-Neelam Kothari wedding will have to wait. The actor is a participant on the Bigg Boss show's fourth season and doesn't know when he will be out of the show.
Actress-turned-jewellery designer Neelam accompanied her beau to the Nitin Desai Studios, Karjat on Saturday where the opening episode of BB4 was shot.
"Neelam was initially excited but is hyperventilating now!" said Samir just before going to the Bigg Boss house. "People say people need therapy after they come out, she wonders what will happen to me and how I will behave!"
Samir is cool about talking about his relationship with Neelam. "I have no plan what I will say when asked about her in the house. But I will honest and go along as things unfold."
About an impending marriage he says, "I have no idea how long I will be in the House. So obviously, it is not happening for now. People can continue to speculate."
After playing a film director in I Hate Luv Storys, he's keen to turn director for real. "I have a script in place and have begun work on the project. But for now, everything is on hold for Bigg Boss."
He was approached for previous seasons. He notes, "I used to recoil at the very thought. People would say it is for losers. So, I had my doubts. But this season, I decided to go for it. In any case, people will say what they want to."
Soni had a blast on Friday night with his near and dear ones. He quips, "We called it the last supper. Some asked me to do a rethink while told me that I have to win the show!" About the tasks he will be expected to perform, he says, "I don't know how to cook so I will be chopping and cleaning."
