Read on.
Congratulations on winning Khatron Ke Khiladi. You are in the headlines as of now for the win in Khatron Ke Khiladi, for entering Bigg Boss and also for your recently released music video, Kehna Galat Galat.
Yes, thank you. The last few months have been rewarding for sure. The music video has been trending at #5 as of now.
Tell us about your experience and learning from Khatron Ke Khiladi.
It was an interesting journey. I enjoyed beyond my expectations. The end result was also favourable to me. Not only the Khatron experience, but life has made me learn a lot. I hope I am strong enough to stay in the Bigg Boss house for long. Having said this, Bigg Boss is ‘bada Khatra’ (laughs). Bagging the Khatron trophy has made me feel confident. I am hopeful of getting more love from people during my stay in the house. I hope for the best result again.
What attribute in you will you want to showcase during your stay in the house?
Whatever I am will be seen in the open. Frankly speaking, in life, we are all consumed by looking good. The Bigg Boss house is not meant for such people. We need to be ourselves inside the house. Even in Khatron Ke Khiladi, whenever I could, I stressed on my opinions.
In the house, there will be different kinds of personalities who react differently to situations. I will try to keep my best foot forward and do my best. I have learnt enough from life and I am confident of handling myself in the best way possible.
What can easily put you off in the house?
I don’t like people lying. I don’t like some amount of disrespect. So let’s see what happens.
How do you rate yourself with respect to your patience level?
I will rate my patience level to be 9 out of 10. However, when I lose my cool, I lose it only for a brief time. But I usually do a lot of damage when I get angry (laughs).
How good are you at making new friends in a totally new ambience?
It is generally very easy for me to make friends. But life without my phone looks alien to me as of now. I need to adjust to the lifestyle in the house. I need to do errands around the house and work on the tasks too. So I am clueless about how to go about it, but will go with the flow.
What about your choice and liking for food? Will that be a hindrance?
I have never placed much importance on food. I have stayed in a hostel, so I value food and don’t waste it. I don’t relish the food that I am eating. It is a fuel needed for me to stay active and that’s about it.
What are your expectations with this show?
I will enjoy my time inside the house. I will show my funny side, and will be seen doing a lot of shayris. I am looking for a fun ride inside the house. But it all depends on the other person/ people that I engage with too. I am hopeful of having a good result in Bigg Boss too.
