Soundarya Sharma On Her Bigg Boss 16 Journey
Were you anticipating eviction?
“Not today, but it is a voyage, and every journey must come to an end. Although I wouldn’t say I am at the top of the world, I am content with the voyage. There are just 20 days till the conclusion, and I was more optimistic, but it’s okay; I’m content with the ride. There is a lot I now know.”
What have you learned from this experience?
“I’ve learned a lot from it. In addition to being difficult, it taught me patience and helped me understand Hindi. In summary, I can say that today I am out building my castle after having stones hurled at me yesterday, and it has been a terrific learning experience.”
Are you happy with how Bigg Boss 16 has turned out for you? Do you believe you might have acted differently in some way?
“It’s too soon for me to judge and make a decision, but I’m not sure if I’m content or not, but it has been quite enlightening. Looking back now, I can tell that I struggled with trust whenever it came to emotional connection. It wasn’t intended, but I could have handled it quite differently. I am a naturally impulsive and spontaneous person, whether it be with friends, math problems, or acquaintances. I used to rework them, but I’ve since grown from my mistakes.”

What would you say about your friendship with Archana Gautam?
“It was quite pure. Unexpectedly, Archana Gautam and I developed close friendships. Her dialogue, “Maar Maarke Mor Bana Dungi,” first appeared after our first altercation. Everyone was against her, but I could identify with her because she is from Meerut and my roots are in Uttar Pradesh. Although I have never been there, I have picked up on tonality and some other characteristics. I found a friend in her since she always had extremely valid points to make, and even she grew very attached to me. I had a soft spot for her because I thought no one paid attention to what she had to say. She is someone I like. She is a sweet girl, but not everyone is home.”
Who do you believe is less deserving, is still in the house, and ought to have left in your place?
“The most deserving candidate is currently interviewing with you. To each their own, I won’t say who is less deserving. All I can do is wish them well; they should now succeed. As a result, I am unable to comment at this time.”
What did you do right away after getting home?
“I was simply lying on the floor staring at the fan when I decided to hug and cuddle my dog. Then I hugged my papa and I cried continuously because I realized that I missed this ambiance so much. I shrieked and felt like I’d come to Pluto.”

Who do you think will win?
“We are all winners, and the winner is currently seated and speaking with you. Virat Kohli occasionally loses his wicket at no ball or only scores 10 runs. I hope the finest candidate prevails, but since she’s genuine, I would want my buddy Archana to be present.”
You believe a participant should refrain from interfering in other people’s fights.
“Everyone interferes in each other’s fights because they want to feel like they belong, as you all know is the solution. They believe that if they don’t do that, others would perceive them as merely going along with the crowd, playing it safe, and focusing more on keeping friendships. Shiv (Thakare) does it to some level, but Priyanka (Chahar Choudhary) has a Ph.D. in this. Everyone succeeds in finding something in this game. Since I don’t think there is anything wrong, I won’t point the finger or say anything bad about them. Those fights are the only things that happen in the name of involvement when you are at home.”
What plans do you now have in mind?
“This morning I got a call, and I have a few meetings and scripts to read. I’m also organizing a trip with my parents since I want to first shift my attitude and vibe. God is good, and I’ll go back to work after that. I am so appreciative of Bigg Boss because even though I haven’t met anyone yet, I can immediately sense that a lot has changed and will continue to change.”

Do you feel any favoritism?
“Everyone lives in Bigg Boss’ house, where everything is the same. On the show, several individuals from various walks of life are placed on a single pedestal. There is unquestionably favoritism due to groupism. The Bigg Boss platform is incredible, and the way the show is run is excellent. I’ve experienced that life and come back. I had the impression that 1-2 people were the faces of the Colors channel in between, but I come from the web and don’t have a following. Any love I have experienced has come through Bigg Boss, but I believe that everyone and everything are now equal since everyone’s true personality, deliberately or unknowingly, is revealed on the show.
Some of the candidates’ personalities still emerged, and after 1.5 months, a couple of the contestants revealed their true selves. You will never be able to live or enjoy it if you choose to stay inside the house with the sole purpose of playing the game. Yes, you do need a support system if you want to survive in the Bigg Boss house. There is a mandali where Ankit (Gupta) was obtained by Priyanka from the outside. There is nothing wrong with the 16 candidates finding it challenging to stay alone within the house.”
