Bigg Boss 19’s Farrhana Bhatt, who finished as the first runner-up, remained one of the most talked-about contestants of the season. From her intense clashes with housemates to her strong-willed personality, she stayed in the spotlight throughout the show. After her eviction the actress joined Times of India TV for an exclusive chat where she spoke about losing the trophy to Gaurav Khanna, Salman Khan’s scolding her week-after-week and calling Gaurav undeserving. Farrhana Bhatt losing trophy to Gaurav KhannaI didn’t feel upset at all. My eyes were never fixated on the trophy. I’ve always believed that I would go as far as destiny had planned for me. The only thing that truly touched me was discovering how much love I was receiving from outside. That made me wonder for a moment whether I might actually win it. But then I felt—trophy or no trophy—this kind of affection is more than enough. Throughout the season, you may have noticed that I never went around declaring that I had to win the trophy. I never chased it. My focus was on giving my best, staying true to who I am, and making decisions that felt right to me. So even if I didn’t walk out with the trophy in my hands, the amount of love people have showered on me is far more precious. That, for me, is the real reward.Farrhana calls Gaurav Khanna undeservingI feel Gaurav Khanna hardly contributed to the show. I don’t know how the audience is viewing it, but from my perspective, there wasn’t much there. He always played extremely safe, never took a firm stand, and often belittled people through his behaviour. I don’t think he is a deserving winner.Change in behaviour after getting evicted in first week of Bigg Boss 19 – I walked in like a stormWhen I returned, my shift in behaviour was visible, but that actually would have happened around the third, fourth, or fifth week , agar main eliminate nahi hui hoti toh. What really triggered me was the sudden eviction. In the secret room, I watched everything and everyone, and I heard people saying things like, “She wasn’t deserving of Bigg Boss,” or “She shouldn’t have been brought into the show,” or “It was right to send her out.” Hearing that drove me insane. It made me furious that they could judge someone so harshly and so casually. That anger built up inside me, and I kept thinking that the moment I stepped back into the house, I would show them exactly who they were underestimating. And that’s exactly what happened. When I returned, I came back with full force, just like Bigg Boss said, I walked in like a storm.On Salman Khan bashing Farrhana – When he said, “I will feel ashamed”, it stuck like a bulletI used to feel genuinely hurt. I think the second weekend and the eleventh weekend affected me the most, I felt completely low and unmotivated. I knew that whatever Salman sir was telling me was meant to help me grow, but I kept wondering why I wasn’t able to understand it at that moment. Why couldn’t I see what others were seeing? Why was I reacting the way I was? But when you take a step back, calm down, and reflect, you realise that a lot of what is said is actually meant for your own progress. I’ve started working on those things, and I’ll keep improving. So yes, it hurts, but I’ve learned to take it in the right spirit. There was one particular line he said, “I will feel ashamed”, and that struck me like a bullet. Hearing something like that from Salman Khan felt unbearable. I broke down that weekend because of it. Normally, I can handle most things, but that one sentence made me feel like maybe I wasn’t worthy of being there.
