'We have learnt a lot in the infant stage. From A-Z, we are completely trained (as parents) now. I can be a nurse or a nanny now and can give tips to my friends. It's perfect guidance and free training for us,' said Shilpa.
Asked why they decided to take up a show like this, Shilpa said: 'The incentive was the novelty of the concept. It's a never heard or seen before concept in India. It was also a break for us from singing and dancing shows, from repetitive, scripted dramas that looked fake, seemed fake and made us feel fake. Thankfully the concept was different, that's what brought us in.'
Even after getting twin kids for the infant stage of the show, the two actors are not complaining and are rather happy with their decision to participate.
'Parenting skills is one aspect of each other we didn't know. Now that we are in this set up, we have seen how well both of us will react in such a situation. The bond between us has been strengthened more and that's one plus point of the show till now. And we hope to start a family soon after the show,' said Apurva.
'Pati Patni Aur Woh', which also has Rakhi Sawant-Elesh Parujanwala, Juhi Parmar-Sachin Shroff, Mouni Roy-Gaurav Chopra and Gurmeet Chaudhary-Debina Bonnerjee as participants, will premiere Sep 28 at 10:30 p.m.
