Wheel of Fortune Makes History with First Public Love Declaration
In an unprecedented moment for the popular game show Wheel of Fortune, contestant Sayanti Mukherji made television history by officially introducing her boyfriend, Kislay, to a national audience. This marked the first time the show has witnessed such a public declaration of love, adding a heartfelt twist to the episode's entertainment.
Akshay Kumar's Immediate Reaction to the Name 'Kislay'
Host Akshay Kumar was quick to notice the unique name, reacting with admiration by saying, "bhot payara nam hain, bhot alag" (it's a very lovely and different name). His playful curiosity set the tone for a lively exchange, highlighting the show's blend of competition and personal storytelling.
Contestants and the Double Dhamaka Round
Alongside Sayanti, the episode featured other contestants, including content creator Shivani Kapila and Mumbai-based writer Mitesh, who contributed their own charm and engaging stories. The pivotal moment occurred just before the Double Dhamaka round, when Akshay Kumar inquired about Sayanti's relationship dynamics.
Insights into a Long-Distance Romance
Akshay asked Sayanti, "Yeh relation chalta kaise hai? Mere saath toh kabhi nahi hua!" (How does this relationship work? It never happened with me!), referring to her long-distance relationship with Kislay, who was seated in the audience. Sayanti candidly shared that while Kislay is extremely romantic, he has forgetful moments, such as almost missing ticket bookings. Kislay promptly defended himself, explaining he was "waiting for the prices to drop."
Keeping the Spark Alive Across Distances
Probing further, Akshay questioned, "But kaise chalta hain ek doosre ke saath? How do you manage it? 2 saal mein ek baar milte ho kya?" (But how do you manage with each other? Do you meet once in two years?). Kislay revealed that he often plans surprises for Sayanti to maintain their connection, showcasing their creative efforts to nurture the relationship despite the geographical separation.
Akshay's Romantic Observations and Humorous Aside
Upon hearing about Kislay's surprises, Akshay humorously noted, "Itna romantic naam hain tera, aur letter nahi likhta?" (You have such a romantic name, and you don't write letters?). He then shared his own perspective, saying, "Main kitaabe nahi padhta, lekin insaan ke chehre padhta hoon" (I don't read books, but I read people's faces), adding that he foresees a beautiful future for the couple. In a light-hearted moment, Akshay also joked about his wife Twinkle Khanna, quipping that she would 'take his life' if he stole from her, adding a touch of his signature humor to the episode.
This episode of Wheel of Fortune not only entertained viewers with its game segments but also offered a rare glimpse into personal lives, making it a memorable broadcast that blended romance, laughter, and candid conversations.
