Talking to ETimes about his conversation with Ridhi Dogra over the "henpecked" remark after coming out of the Bigg Boss house, Raqesh Bapat said: "She was just bothered about me being called henpecked. She also reacted against it. Ridhi told me that you as a person can never be henpecked and it's just that you care a lot about people who you like and that's why you are that way. She also said to me that when you feel for a person, you would never react to that person in an angry way."
