"I am so happy that people gave me this chance to show my true self. I am so happy they kept me till the end and let me play this game my way. A lot of people out there don’t understand how difficult it has been for me in the industry. In Bollywood, it was a struggle for me and my sister Shilpa knows it. I thank everyone for giving me the opportunity to be on Bigg Boss and be myself. I am happy that I could stand by my values, principles and didn’t let the game or the house change my real personality till the end."

"There were a lot of people who came in with a preconceived notion or idea of me and they changed their thoughts about me when they got to know me. I am so happy that happened. It was very difficult and there were many times when I told myself is it really worth inflicting myself with so much emotional pain. But I am glad I decided to continue with the journey and reached the end. I am proud of myself that I managed to stick to my values and my principles."
