Rakhi is not travelling alone and is accompanied by people, who are clued into the whole issue. Before starting her three-day trip to Rajasthan, Rakhi told us, "I will not only go to the village near Jodhpur where she lived, I will visit the hospital where Bhanwari worked.

I also want to meet Bhanwari's husband - Amarchand Nat, and visit his village too, and I will also visit the place jahan unke zewar mile," adding, "Main paisey ke liye film nahi karti aur isiliye mein poori research karoongi because I still haven't agreed to do the film." Rakhi, who visited the Parliament in March to get a feel of the budget session, believes that her visit to the parliament will now help her in the case.

She explains, "Agar Rakhi Sawant parliament jaa sakti hain, toh woh kahin bhi jaa sakti hai and I believe that the whole Bhanwari Devi issue is very interesting and powerful and it is imperative to know the knitty-gritty of the entire issue." More than anything else, this role will be Rakhi's ode to the woman of Rajasthan.

"From what I know, Bhanwari Devi was a respectable woman who worked very hard to prove herself and usne minister ki sachai bhi samane layi thi. Normally what happens is that log khila ke aate hain aur fir baad mein khate hain and this is wrong.

Therefore, I will go the extra mile to learn everything about Bhanwari till I am satisfied." Yes, she has heard the script of the movie and Rakhi wants to become a perfectionist, well, just like Aamir Khan.

"Aamir bhi kitni research karte hain har ek movie ke phele aur mein bhi apne role ke liye research kar rahi hoon," she says, adding, "Koi bhi role karne se phele mein uski sachai janana chahti hoon." You know, she says, we can't play with the facts and hum extra masala nahi daal sakte.

So, your fans won't get a glimpse of Rakhi- the dancer? "Bhanwari was a nice dancer and a good singer, too. Hence, we can include a dance sequence in the movie," Rakhi promptly says.

Before signing off, Rakhi tells us why she refused the movie which was being made on the life of Maanyata Dutt. "I respect Sanjay Dutt and his wife and I refused the movie simply because I didn't wanted ki Sanjay mujhse naraz ho jaaye.

Also, I respect woman and I will never take a step which will mocks them." If rumour mills are to be believed, Bhanwari Devi role was, earlier, offered to Mahie Gill.

You feel lucky to have got the role? "I don't care which heroine does the role but jo bhi kare, acche se kare." (less)
