Bigg Boss OTT contestant Divya Agarwal has said that she was among the first contestants to be finalized for the show because of her over-the-top personality. In a recent interview with a leading daily, the actress has said that her fans have watched her on reality shows where she had a love connection which won’t be there this time.
Divya said, “In the past reality show, I have had love connections. This time it won’t be there because I am quite happy with the person that I am with (blushes). It will just be about this person who is always happy and always over the top. I think that is the reason why they chose me as the first contestant. Perhaps they knew the kind of person I am… OTT. Now my fans are going to see me cooking, live every day, 24×7. They are going to love it.”
When asked about meeting Karan Johar on Bigg Boss OTT, the actress said, “The first film set I was on was Karan Johar’s Student of the Year. I was somewhere behind in the crowd with many people as college students. I was a background artist. I used to watch Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, and tell myself ‘My God, they are here and now they will go far in their careers. Now I am here (on Bigg Boss OTT), I guess I guess I have been a successful ‘aspiring story’ – Karan Johar is going to introduce me to my own audience on Voot. And, I am the one welcoming him, so (it is fun).”
Sharing her game plan on Bigg Boss OTT, she said, “If you are in it, go all out. I will use saam-daam-dand-bhed, and you guys are going to be entertained throughout. I am not going to refrain when I am angry. As for my anger, I have been loud on previous shows. But now I will use silence. I will just look into the eyes and that silence will scare everyone.”
Divya Agarwal also opened about losing her father to Covid-19 in 2020. “I lost my father to Covid last year. I think life has taught me a lot. Now, I just want to break free, have fun and be happy. I want to have my freedom back. I lost my father but this time (as she starts her Bigg Boss OTT journey) he is going to be with me, in the house.”
