Not one to let her resentment go unnoticed, she says, “I want to see the rule book of the show because if Isha (Sharvani) can stay on the show without performing, why was I eliminated despite getting good number of votes and marks? I feel it was unfair that an exception was made for her when she dislocated her elbow, but not for me. I too performed despite being unwell."

She adds, “I was suffering from high fever on the episode where Kareena Kapoor visited the sets. Also, despite a severe back pain, I still chose to dance,”
She is unhappy that no contestant or judge supported her when the decision was made. “I was angry when I heard the result. I used to rehearse eight to 10 hours daily, compromise on eating on time and go through stress. If the judges and channel wanted, they could have made an exception.”
