She entered the house without a strategy in place to win the contest. “Surviving a contest like this is not difficult because the people are civilized and all one has to do is live inside a house with cameras tracking every movement of yours. I lived in a jungle without any preparation.

We would be attacked by our opponents and the police at any hour of the day. Survival was difficult then. I didn’t feel the need for a strategy,” says Parihar, who wrote and directed

, a film based on her own life.

“I wanted the world to know what I had been through. Someone helped me write the film because I didn’t know how the medium functions. Wounded was my story. I had been abducted by a group of dacoits.
