As prospective grooms try hard to woo actress Ratan Rajput in Imagine TV's "Ratan Ka Rishta", a Delhi-based contender earned her displeasure after getting too close for comfort.

It so happened that photographer Avinash Gowariker arrived at the venue -- the Shiv Vilas Resort on the Delhi-Jaipur highway -- to capture the chemistry of the boys with Ratan. In a bid to outdo each other, they tried various romantic poses with the would-be bride.

But when Syed Shoaib's closeness became too much to handle, Ratan gave him a piece of her mind in everyone's presence, said a source.

The no-nonsense girl from Patna is hopeful of choosing a loving, caring and a simple husband, which clearly Shoaib didn't seem to be!
