Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh and his actress wife Geeta Basra recently launched their home production banner, Purple Rose Entertainment, which has come up with a fresh chat show titled ‘Who is The Boss’.
In an exclusive conversation with IANS, the couple shared insights about the show and their life together.
Harbhajan revealed that the inspiration for the show came from the women behind the scenes. “People know the cricketers, but they don’t know their wives. These women have their own identities and their own journeys. They are individuals with unique stories, and that’s what we wanted to share. That’s how the concept for the show came about,” he said.
When asked about who truly rules the household, Geeta was candid: “I think we share the responsibilities quite equally. I mostly look after the kids — their daily activities, classes, meals, and even things around the house that need fixing. Harbhajan takes care of the financial aspects —deciding what to buy and what not to buy.”
Harbhajan agreed, adding, “Yes, I usually handle the financial side, but she also has a say in what needs to be fixed or not around the house. It’s a partnership.”
Addressing whether their show drew inspiration from the popular ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’, Geeta clarified, “Not really, Kapil’s show has been around for many years and it features a lot of comedy skits and entertainment. While our show also has fun elements, it’s quite different.”
Harbhajan elaborated, “Our focus is more on showing the personal sides of public figures. For example, everyone knows Rohit Sharma as a cricketer, but people don’t really know him as a person, or much about his wife. We want to bring out their real-life stories — what they’re like as a couple, their journey together.”
