Perception did the damage: Nihita

She may be the first one out, but Nihita Biswas has “no regrets” about participating in reality TV show Bigg Boss 5. The 22-year old, however, says the experience that left her most shocked was when asked if she had had sex with husband Charles Sobhraj, who is in prison in Nepal.

In the first episode of the show, TV anchor Mandeep Bevli had asked her, ‘Charles Sobhraj ke saath sex kiya?’ After her ouster, Biswas says, “Everyone wanted to ask me questions. She asked me in a very straightforward way. I was trying to hold back tears at that time because I didn’t know what kind of people they were ... whether they wanted to push me out of the house or what.”

Biswas adds that the inmates had a certain perception of her since the very beginning, and that led to her eviction. “They thought I was the girl the media said I was. It took a while, but I changed the perception and showed my goodness in a week.”

She’s clueless about the lack of viewer support for her. “I don’t know what people wanted me to be. I didn’t even complain about work.” How will Sobhraj take her eviction? “No idea. He knows the person that I am. Nothing else matters.” About the inmates one should be wary of, she says, “Pooja Misrra isn’t a good human. And Shraddha Sharma is diplomatic.”
