Shilpa Saklani and Apurva Agnihotri are returning on small screen after a long gap, and for the first time the duo will be seen together in a reality show called Pati Patni Aur Woh. The duo had been happily married for many years, but still there is no woh (baby). They still want more time to extend their family. But that surely won’t stop them from trying their hands at parenting, even if it means taking a baby on udhari!
You both are making an appearance together after a long time. What made you take up this show?
Apurva: This is something not attempted on television, which makes the whole thing very exciting. Handling a baby is an unknown territory for us. Let’s see, how we handle this.
Shilpa: It is a different ball game when you have to take care of the entire stuff of a baby. Who is going to handle what department?
Apurva: Both of us will be taking care of all the departments. For now, we haven’t been assigned on who will be doing what.
Shilpa: Just imagine if the small baby is for 8 days with you, aap ki toh band he baj jayegi…
Apurav: Babies know the touch of their mother, and at this point you give them to some unknown hands, it’s difficult for them, as well as for us also.
For who are you looking forward to, a baby girl or a boy?
Apurva: I am looking for a cute baby girl. We know it’s not going to be a cakewalk for us, but still eagerly waiting for the shoot to start.
Shilpa: Looking for a cute little baby doll, as then I will keep dressing her and making her look beautiful, like we use to do in our childhood days with dolls. Boys like to play with machine guns, which disturb me a lot.
Apurva: I would love that.
Shilpa: If my son brings a lizard, I will first pass-out and then lock him in the loo for sometime.
But hypothetically, who will be taking care of the baby and who will go out and work?
Shilpa: My hubby is very loving and caring and thus, he will do all the stuff. I am sure he will be a good manager of both the worlds.
