Rakhi Sawant is a popular name in the house of Bigg Boss. Hailed as drama queen, Rakhi entered the 14th season as a challenger in the middle of the show. While Rakhi and controversies go hand in hand, this time the actress showed her vulnerable self as she bared it all on the show. From opening up about her disappointing marriage to sharing hardships of her sinking career, Rakhi put it all out there and audience loved her. She was one of the five finalsist and decided to walk away with Rs 14 lakh in the finale episode.
Now that Rakhi is out of the house, she is opening up about her journey inside the house. She has said that although she was under stress, she fought back to entertain people because she wanted to make a comeback in acting.
“I fought back. My personal life was also painful. My mother was unwell and she has been undergoing chemotherapy. There was stress in my personal life and I still entertained people. I had so much pressure and responsibility,” said Rakhi.
Rakhi did not shy away from sharing personal details on the national television. In a shocking revelation, the actress said that a man had forced himself on her when she was young, offering her money in return. When asked about does she regret revealing her personal life, she said, ” When you live in the house, there is a time when you break. I broke down because I was going through a lot of pain. My mother’s pain, my love wasn’t successful, my marriage was not successful either. Somewhere, I would break down looking at a couple. I broke completely,” she said.
“The journey was very beautiful. So many people want to go to Bigg Boss and getting an entry is such a big thing. I wanted to make a comeback and my career was down. Bigg Boss gave me a second (chance)… Everyone goes through ups and downs and I got that push from here. I am so happy that I will be able to do something now… There were so many ups and downs in the Bigg Boss 14 house,” Rakhi told IANS.
“I was very affected when my nose broke in the show. They broke my props’s head and threw water on me. But I controlled my anger in the show because then you’d have to leave the show. They taunted me, they spoke about my married life and said I was doing ‘nataunki’ and (that I was) ‘fake’. But I did not lose confidence.” she said.
Rakhi said she will remain friends with Bigg Boss winner Rubina Dilaik. “I am very happy that Rubina won,” she culminated.
