Rakhi says Satyamev Jayate is a copy of Rakhi ka Insaaf

Buzz is that item girl Rakhi Sawant has accused actor Aamir Khan of stealing the concept of Satyamev Jayate from her show Rakhi Ka Insaaf.

Rakhi Sawant said that, "The show is a complete copy of Rakhi Ka Insaaf. They (the production house) have stolen our concept. The format of my show was similar."

She added saying, "There was a point when I was so disturbed after meeting the various people who came on the show with their problems, that I had to be hospitalised, since I was suffering from depression."

She feels that Satyamev Jayate is getting advantage because of Aamir's presence. She said, "My show was shifted to a late night slot because of its mature content, but it still registered good TRPs. On the other hand, just because Satyamev Jayate has Aamir Khan, the show is being aired in the morning slot and people are talking about it."

Rakhi even said, "I have nothing against Aamir. He is a great guy and I am indebted to him for life. He stood up for me at a time when there was nothing good going for me. In fact, he should be made PM of the country. Seriously, he is genuine and does intelligent work. My only issue is that if Aamir Khan decides to do a show like this, it is termed social work, but if Rakhi Sawant anchors a similar show it is termed as business and a means to garner TRPs. The courts will interfere in my show and say that 'Lets solve these issues' we don't need a show for this. Aren't these double standards? I don't have problems with the remuneration, - Aamir Khan gets Rs three crore for doing this show and I got Rs five lakh for it! Many news channels have earlier hit on these subjects but there was no fast track code set up by the government and I am no one to comment on this. There is nothing original about Aamir's show, because Rakhi ka Insaaf had already done all that. Logon ko rulaana bahot aasan hai, but to take corrective action and bring about a change in society is difficult! Such shows only play with people's emotions. When Aamir does a show like this, he is applauded and when I do a show like this, they say item girl kya insaaf dilayegi? Having said that, I want my show to be brought back with a sequel. Rakhi sabko buri lagti hai kyunki main hamesha sach bolti hoon. But I am not afraid of anyone, because at the end of the day, truth finally comes out."

The show Rakhi Ka Insaaf was aired on NDTV imagine was quite controversial for Rakhi's use of obscene language. The show dealt with individual problems whereas Satyamev Jayate is about social issues. Rakkhi ka insaaf was slammed by the Information & Broadcasting Ministry of the Indian Government as well as the Allahabad High Court.

Even Palash Sen of the band Euphoria accused the show’s music director for stealing tunes from one of his songs. The music director of the show Satyamev Jayate is Ram Sampath.
