How has life changed after you tasted success?

By God’s grace, life is the same for me but people’s perspectives towards me have changed. People who thought I wasn’t fit for a project now come to me and say we always knew you had a spark and how my popularity changed people’s thoughts.

What inspired you to participate in Bigg Boss OTT 3?

I wanted a change in life. After doing music videos back-to-back, I wanted to break the monotony and do something different. I wanted people to see my real self and nothing is better than participating in Bigg Boss. Also, I think I am fit for the show – for being real and not fake.  

How are you as a person?

I am calm as well as a short-tempered person. I don’t lose my calm easily unless and until someone tries hard to poke me.

How do you plan to utilize money and fame post Bigg Boss?

I see myself writing and singing songs in the near future. I would like to invest my Bigg Boss money in building a stronger career. As for fame, I am not too desperate to stay in the news.

What are your strengths and weaknesses?

I am quite empathetic, mature, and helpful, and my weakness is being oversensitive.
