If you are caught in a traffic snarl in Mumbai and happen to have your favorite radio channel on, you cannot miss the ' Sanjay Nirupam turns into an estate agent' jokes that are being oft quoted and getting the right laughs. Post his Bigg Boss promise to Monica Bedi on finding her house, one would assume Sanjay has taken the 'politician's easy way out' by keeping false promises and feigning temporary amnesia, but, our source close to the Bedi camp assures us that our politician is unlike any that we have seen.

Seems like Nirupam has been looking out for a nice abode for this girl ever since he left the Bigg Boss house. Speaking to Mumbai Mirror, a daily, Sanjay Nirupam confirmed the news and said, "Yes I have arranged for some flats in Andheri. Monica can either rent or purchase them, which will depend on her. These flats are mainly in Lokhadwala and Yari Road. Monica called me day before yesterday to know the status of her accommodation, as I had promised to help her. I told her about the short listed flats today." He further added, " There is no reason why Monica cannot convince others just like she convinced me about her plight. In fact, people are now convinced and have begun to see her in a different light."
"Monica is an innocent girl. She was trapped. Whatever mistakes she committed, she has already been punished for them. She has a right to start all over again.

"If I helped Monica, it's because I want to show people that not all politicians feign amnesia when it comes to keeping promises!"

When contacted, Monica said, "Bigg Boss has changed my life and I have no words to thank the show. People are looking at me differently now. I am extremely thankful to Nirupamji."
Our ace politician has been in the news since his Bigg Boss debut. Hobnobbing with the Bollywood bandwagon and the small screen celebrities, one couldn't help wonder, if it is indeed a political flavor that Sanjay Nirupam is aspiring or is it much more than that.

As one of his loyalists, on condition of annoymity, said to us, "He's seen as the messiah for the underdogs. Monica Bedi is just one example. There are so many…the sheer amount of work that he has done for the Bihar flood victims is truly commendable! Keeping promises is what our beloved politician does!"
