"God help Pooja"- Vida Samadzai

After the exit of Laxmi Narayan last week, Colors' Bigg Boss Season 5 saw another elimination this week. Vida Samadzai was shown the doors of exit this week and everyone has a doubt on the elimination being rigged as the expected contestants are evicted.

Well, rigged or not, TellyBuzz had a conversation with Vida and she shared her experiences in the house.

Excerpts…

How will you describe the journey in Bigg Boss Season 5?
I would describe it as a great experience where I met people with strong characters. In the beginning everything went smoothly but as time passed the reality hit them.

Did you find it difficult to adjust with the language?
The game is not about language but it is all about human chemistry and respect. The show is all about understanding each other's character.

Do you regret the decision of taking the show?
No, not at all because I always take everything in a positive manner and I take the show also in a positive way. I got some amazing food to eat; got a chance to make some good friends and at the same time I would like to put all the negative aspects like Pooja Misrra behind.

What was your favourite chore in the house?
Cooking, I always loved cooking. I used to ask the inmates, what they liked to eat and it brought so much happiness to me whenever I saw them happy eating the food and appreciate me.

What was the main motive for taking the show?
There was nothing special, I had gone to Europe after they offered me the show first and when I returned, the offer was still open. So I thought why not try.

Did you expect the elimination?
I still do not know because I was being myself in the house and I do not know if I was able to connect with the audience. But the reception after my elimination was good and the people appreciated my behavior in the house.

What do you think about Pooja's instable behavior?
I would just like to say two things; one, if there is any good psychiatrist please send him to Bigg Boss house and second, God help her.

Recently one contestant claimed that Pooja is mentally instable and she takes dope inside the house?
I do not know about her medication, but she might be taking vitamins or some antibiotics. But mentally you viewers must have seen her on the show.

Sunny Leona is entering the house in a few days. How do you think the scenario in the house would change?
I think the boys would be very happy because lately there have been only boys entering the house. I do not know how poor Amar will adjust because he is very shy.

One thing you have understood after doing the show.
I understood that we should not assume or judge people's character on pure assumptions and we have to talk it out.

You come from a land wherein women are not really given proper rights. Are you apprehensive about the reception outside?
I live in California and I believe that I stayed within the limits on the house. Even when I got into the swimming pool I did not wear a bikini. I know about India and I did not want to hurt the sentiments and feelings. I would be the same if this show was in California but there you would be freer there.
