So did they, or did they not tie the knot two years ago? According television star Sarah Khan's parents Sarah made it official with her beau Ali Merchant in 2008 and the nikaah on Bigg Boss was an eyewash.
Ali Merchant who has just come out of the Bigg Boss house after the noisy televised wedding, rubbishes Sarah's parents claims of an earlier nikaah and accuses them of lying. He also lets out that Sarah doesn't get along with her folks, and neither does Ali much care for his in-laws.
Says Ali, "I don't know why they (Sarah's parents) are saying this (that the couple is married). The picture that they are showing to the media is that of our engagement not of our marriage. In fact we got engaged twice, once in Mumbai and then in Bhopal."
Ali adds that he went into the Bigg Boss house only to check out the truth about Sarah and Ashmit Patel.
Says Ali, "Their relationship was shown in such a suspicious light, even I became apprehensive. But when I went inside Bigg Boss I discovered the truth. There was nothing suspicious between Sarah and Ashmit. I came away married to Sarah and with a dear friend in Ashmit."
Ali says he also became fond of Hrishant Goswami, Shweta Tiwari and Veena Malik.
Says Ali, "I will host a grand wedding reception when Sarah comes out of the house. I'll invite all the Bigg Boss contestants except Dolly Bhindra. I don't want to spoil the party by inviting her."
The young television actors says he has done nearly 20 serials so far and is open to offers with his beghum Sara. Any takers?
