AIt was the turn of Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin actress Aishwarya Sharma Bhatt to walk out of the Bigg Boss 17 house as another round of eviction took place. This elimination came after the current captain of the Bigg Boss house Isha Malviya named Aishwarya for breaking the rules of the house, leading to the ex-Khatron Ke Khiladi contestant exiting the Salman Khan-hosted reality show. After exiting Bigg Boss 17, Aishwarya sat down for a quick conversation with Indian Express where she commented on her eviction, her and husband Neil Bhatt’s rivalry with Vicky Jain and Ankita Lokhande, and the infamous slap controversy involving Vicky and Ankita.
On her eviction Aishwarya said, “I wanted to win the trophy, but I got eliminated for breaking rules, so I am very disappointed. It was a very unfair decision from Isha. She has always been very clear with her stand, so I was hopeful that she would not take my name. I have never broken a rule, may be I was a strong competitor, and she chose to evict me. She has just gotten very overconfident.”
Addressing the rival with Vicky-Ankita, she said, “It was an old friendship that turned into rivalry inside the Bigg Boss house. We were told that we were fighting with Vicky-Ankita just for the cameras. But there was a difference of opinion. Vicky always tries to be a leader, but we never gave in to being his subjects. I made it very clear that I could not be Vicky’s puppet. He tried very hard to convince Neil, but Vicky means nothing to me.”
Further, Aishwarya also spoke about Vicky and Ankita’s marriage and the recent infamous slap controversy where it appeared Vicky raised his hand to hit his wife during an argument. “I don’t know what exactly happened, Neil and Abhsihek were talking about it. Abhishek confirmed with Anurag, and they said that Vicky actually did something like this,” she said, adding, “Even I was very shocked, but it is between them. It was absolutely wrong, but I would not want to comment on anything further. They can only comment on other people’s relationships. I feel, they consider marriage as a joke. The way they commented on me and Neil… However, if Ankita doesn’t find it wrong when he is making fun of his own wife, then we should respect her.”
