I’m very unhappy: Kishwer Merchantt
Bigg Boss is just two weeks away from its finale and one of the strongest contenders Kishwer Merchantt is out after an elimination task. Kishwer minces no words as she declares that her ouster is unfair. “I’m very unhappy. We weren’t given a choice — either Prince or I had had to take the money and leave. At this stage in the game, money is not important, I wanted to be in the top five but I was forced to make a sacrifice after Bigg Boss told us that we had no choice but to make a decision about who will leave.”
Boyfriend Suyyash was ousted a week earlier, but Kishwer says that hadn’t affected her too badly. “I was upset on the first two days but after that I got busy in tasks and didn’t get time to think about it much. Suyyash wanted to see me in the top five so I was focussing on that.”
About her decision to quit, the actress says, “I have a fan following of my own but Prince has won two reality shows, these shows have a different kind of following. I know I was stronger than him but votes also matter.”
Of the contestants still in the game, Kishwer says, “Prince will surely win the show. Mandana is not winner material at all. Rochelle is easily influenced by others. Keith is not vocal about his views and has a poor graph. Rishabh and Priya are strong competitors.”
While Kishwer has been praised for her performance in tasks she was criticised for spitting in Rishabh’s drink. “Firstly, I don’t even know how to spit properly, that was hardly anything. Keith spat in the food but was not pulled up for it, and it was far worse. I had done it in fun, like if you argue with a waiter at a restaurant, it is said they spit in the food so I followed that. Later, I apologised to Rishabh.”
She adds about her plans now, “I came back home and met my cousins. I will now be celebrating my fifth date anniversary with Suyyash. After the finale, all the BB 9 contestants have planned a vacation together.”
