Mahajan's Swayamvar sees him body-building, joining dance classes for the show PS: Promises he won't pull off a Rakhi!

Rahul Mahajan is building his body and grooming himself to participate in the season 2 of NDTV Imagine's Swayamvar. After his stint on Bigg Boss, Rahul is now gearing up to face the cameras and choose a prospective bride from 16 girls. Here's Rahul talking about his quest to find a life partner and his mom's relief on him settling down...

How did the show come to you?
I am a good friend with Sameer Nair and he came up to me and suggested that I do the show. I liked the idea and once I read the format and script, I decided to do it. I think it's an interesting platform for me to not only find a life partner but also to connect to the audience. They all gave me lots of love and support during Bigg Boss.

Is it true you are bulking up for the show?
Yes, I am presently training with Abbas who is Shahid Kapoor's trainer. He's basically getting me into healthy eating and following a basic workout regimen. I don't plan to build a body like Salman, but be physically fit and active. I have also joined dance classes so I have a basic idea of what it's like to dance.

Why the urge to settle down now?
It's a natural transition for me. At my age, you do get lonely and crave for someone's company. So I thought it would be a nice way to meet girls from all over the world and then see whom I get along well with the most. I also believe in destiny and let it take the course of my life.
