Pooja Bhatt, who surprised many by entering the reality show Bigg Boss OTT Season 2 earlier this month, has been creating her image as the advisor in the house. The actress is often seen coming in support of co-contestants and giving them advice in terms of need. Considering that she has been one of the senior members and also that she is born into a reputed family, the actress-filmmaker recently revealed why she should be ranked in the top slot.
In the recent episode of Bigg Boss OTT Season 2, contestants were asked to rank each other in a scale of one to nine. The actress reasoned that she should be ranked in the top slot because she has never played the woman’s card to succeed in the industry. She said, “I have never had any woman card, and I don’t follow the rat race. I believe in direct communication, speaking to people face-to-face with eye contact. My opinions and individuality are the reasons why I was called to participate in Bigg Boss OTT, even after having such a successful career for many years. I always follow instructions and respect the orders of those in positions of authority.”
While many netizens accused her of maintaining a rather saintly image on the show, after she was seen giving advice to contestants as well as consoling them when they broke down, the actress maintained that she has always been like that in real life too and wouldn’t change her persona for the show. “I don’t have an addiction to the spotlight, camera, or attention. I was born into this industry, and I will remain a part of it until the end. My life doesn’t come to an end after Bigg Boss. Therefore, I won’t engage in activities that would disappoint my fans just for attention. Successful careers aren’t achieved through chance and talent, but ultimately, it’s about what we are made of,” she added.
Fans of Pooja Bhatt are extremely glad to see the actress in a new avatar in the reality show, however, on the other hand, many netizens are also calling out the platform of giving her preference and privileges. Besides Pooja Bhatt, the show currently also features Falaq Naaz, Jiya Shankar, Jad Hadid, Manisha Rani, Bebika Dhurve, Avinash Sachdev, Abhishek Malhan, Cyrus Broacha, among others as contestants.
