"I am looking for a companion who is warm, affectionate, someone who can dance a little bit, who respects women for who they are, and above all who is punctual. Even Sita had her swayamvara so why not me?"

Rakhi says this is the right time for her to settle down.

"Every young woman dreams of a perfect marriage. There is a right time in your life to get married to become a wife and a mother. I'm a cultured Indian woman with good values and I have reached a stage where I need a companion with whom I can share my love, joys, sorrows and success. For me that time is now," she said.

Over the duration of the show, the prospective grooms will be brought together under one roof and put through a series of challenges that will test their personality, character, physical fitness, talent and also their compatibility with Rakhi.

All through the series, viewers can help Rakhi decide, by voting for or against the prospective grooms and the final week will present the wedding celebrations.

Madonna’s millions raised from Malawi fundraiser go ‘missing’

Millions of dollars raised from Madonna’s Malawi fundraiser last year have no address, it has emerged.

According to ‘Fox News’, the estimated 3.7 million dollars remain unaccountable after repeated inquiries to The Gucci Foundation and the singer’s Raising Malawi charity.

The Queen of Pop had previously urged her fellow celebrities to donate for the cause, which is backed by Jewish mysticism Kabbalah and dedicated to helping Malawi''s one million poverty-stricken orphans.

The US-based channel claimed that fourteen months ago the entire event was alleged to have been underwritten and the amount divided between Raising Malawi and UNICEF.

But, both the Gucci Foundation and Madonna’s non-profit organisation were yet to file a Form 990 tax statement, leaving room for suspicion, according to the channel.

The development comes at a time when the megastar is back in the African country for a second adoption.

The 50-year-old, who adopted three-year-old David Banda from the region, recently pleaded to Lilongwe’s High Court to let her take home four-year-old Mercy James, whose teenage mother had died three years ago.

She will next appear in court for the ongoing adoption process on April 3.

Aamir Khan says no to politics

Bollywood star Aamir Khan said the November 26 Terror strikes had stirred up awareness among the citizens to chose right leaders.

"After the terror attack, citizens are well aware about the state of affairs in the country and this will help them in choosing the right leader in the upcoming elections," he said while launching a campaign to create awareness amongst voters.

A city-based NGO, Association for Democratic Reforms and National Election Watch, launched a nationwide voter awareness campaign, `Vote for Integrity, Vote for Good People'.

The campaign will appeal to citizens to make an informed choice and also provide them with information about candidates through a toll free number, SMS and website.
