I barely came home, and my parents were worried because they hardly saw me. It was a constant chase, and the struggle was draining. At one point, I felt like I couldn’t keep doing the same thing again — I was sick of it. I had achieved that number, but I wanted something that could challenge me in a new way. That’s when I thought of Bigg Boss. It’s not just any project — it’s the reality show I’ve always felt could push me beyond my comfort zone and show people a side of me they’ve never seen before.”
