Rakhi Sawant, the Bollywood actress and reality TV personality, has recently revealed that she is considering marriage for the third time, with a proposal from Pakistani actor and police officer Dodi Khan. In an exclusive interview with ETimes, Rakhi shared her excitement about this new chapter in her life, highlighting the significance of cross-border unions and the potential they hold for promoting peace and unity between India and Pakistan.
Rakhi, whose bold persona has made her a household name in Indian entertainment, expressed her deep admiration for Pakistani culture and people. “When I visited Pakistan, people saw how I was harassed in my previous marriages. I will definitely select one prospect,” Rakhi revealed, referring to the support and understanding she received from Pakistani fans during her visits. Many of these fans were sympathetic to her turbulent relationships and admired her resilience in the face of public adversity.
The actress also spoke about her plans for the wedding ceremony itself, stating that she would follow Islamic traditions in Pakistan, with a reception to be held in India afterward. “Indians and Pakistanis can’t do without each other. I love Pakistani people and have many fans there,” she emphasized, reinforcing her belief in the importance of fostering cross-border connections. According to Rakhi, the couple would later head to Switzerland or the Netherlands for their honeymoon, eventually settling in Dubai. Her statement underscored her desire to create a bond that transcends national boundaries and fosters greater understanding between neighboring nations.
This would mark Rakhi’s third marriage. Her previous marriages were marred by controversy and personal struggles. She was married to businessman Adil Khan Durrani, but their relationship ended in 2023 following allegations of infidelity and domestic harassment. Durrani was arrested in connection with these allegations and served five months in jail. Before Durrani, Rakhi was married to Ritesh Raj Singh, whom she met on Bigg Boss 15. Their marriage ended shortly after the show, citing irreconcilable differences.
In her latest relationship, Rakhi is hopeful that her union with Dodi Khan will be different. She sees this marriage as an opportunity to bridge the divide between two countries that have a complex history. “Marriages like these symbolize peace and togetherness between countries,” Rakhi shared, underlining her belief that her love story could send a message of harmony.
