Almost every Big Boss viewer(including me) was rooting for Bani to win the show. Premonitions were made in the social media world predicting Bani's win. In fact, Social Media king KRK( Don't take the word king too seriously) had also tweeted that Bani would win the show. He also targeted the candour of the show stating that everything is fixed and Bani will be adjudged the winner at the end. However, taking the world by surprise Manveer managed to win the hearts of the audience. I wonder what must be going through KRK's mind when they declared the winner. Perhaps, he wished there was a take back my word button on social media, eh?
Though Bani didn't win the show, she ended up at the runner-up on the show. After the show, Bani spoke about her journey inside the house in an interview with DNA India and her views inspired awe for her in me. Though Manveer was declared the winner, for me the winner will be Bani
Here are some excerpts from her interview that I absolutely loved and felt worth sharing with the world
Are you disappointed that you came so far and didn’t win the trophy?
Yes, because this was definitely something that I wanted to win. And, I could see the love every day, so I knew that there was no way I could lose. Staying 107 days in the house hasn’t been the easiest for me. And it may sound lame, but since day one of the show I felt I was going to win. Even before going into the house, I had told Gauahar(Khan) that I will be winning the show. At no point did I feel I will lose, not even when I got nominated or did not win a task and people said'what are you doing', I had no doubts, I just had this overwhelming feeling that I will win. So, it’s definitely disappointing that I didn’t. Even now, when Manveer has got the title, I still feel like I have won. I think after a few days, it will sink in.
Who do you feel deserved to win the show?
I am glad that Manveer was with me among the top two. I even told him that when we were going to meet Salman sir back stage. In a way it is good for the show which was about aam aadmi vs celebritiy, that an aam aadmi has won. More than anything I am happy that it’s someone deserving, who has won it.
How do you look back on your journey in the house?
It was extremely difficult. There were more downs than ups. I don't know how to explain. So many things happened. I aged while I was in the house, I have got one beautiful white hair! I also grew one more wisdom tooth while I was in the house, it is so bizarre.
If you could go back and change one thing in the house, what would it be?
I will tell them to send oats in the normal ration and not in the luxury budget. And add more eggs!
How has the stay inside the house changed you?
I will find out when I go out in the real world. If anybody tells me anything right now' do this or do that,' I will say okay. I have become highly obedient!(Laughs).
