Ram Kapoor recently shared his thoughts on Rakhi Sawant’s success in the Hindi film industry, emphasizing her determination and self-made rise without any connections in the industry.

Rakhi’s Self-Made Success

Ram Kapoor, who got to know Rakhi Sawant while hosting her Swayamvar in 2009, spoke about how the controversial figure built her name despite having no godfather in the industry. The season aired from June 29, 2009, to August 2, 2009, with Rakhi’s engagement to Elesh Parujanwala, a Canadian businessman, during the finale. However, they split up a few months later.

Ram Kapoor On Rakhi Sawant

In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Ram Kapoor reflected on his views of Rakhi. Although he doesn’t always agree with her opinions or actions, he acknowledges her perseverance.

“Today, the entire nation knows Rakhi Sawant’s name,” Ram said. “She lives in a 3 BHK sea-facing apartment in Mumbai which I have been to which she owns. Respect! She achieved this herself. I might not agree with her philosophy, madness… waahiyat cheezein bolti hai wo but wo jo bhi hai, jo bhi karti hai, the fact is she has managed to make her life by herself and I have seen it. How could you not respect it? Koi ek nice, sexy dancer jisko industry misuse karna chahte the… bahut saari gandi experiences hai uski… no godfather… nothing… ye sab dekha maine because of ‘Rakhi Ka Swayamvar’ so you learn from everything.”

Ram Kapoor’s Incredible Physical Transformation

Along with sharing his views on Rakhi, Ram Kapoor has been making headlines for his stunning physical transformation. The actor shed an impressive 55 kilos, going from 140 kilos to 85 kilos in just a year. This transformation wasn’t a sudden change but rather a journey that took five years.

“For five years I was on a weight loss roller coaster losing 30 kilos and then gaining it back,” he said in a podcast with Devna Gandhi.
