Bigg Boss 19 runner-up Farrhana Bhatt has opened up about one of the most emotionally difficult moments of her journey inside the reality show. In an exclusive conversation with Pinkvilla, the actress revealed that she once seriously considered exiting the Bigg Boss house after feeling “traumatized” by host Salman Khan’s harsh criticism during a Weekend Ka Vaar episode.
Farrhana admitted that during the early weeks, she often reacted aggressively and used inappropriate language. This became a major talking point when Salman Khan publicly called her out, saying he needed a “dictionary” to understand the words she used.
Recalling that moment, she said:
“I was very angry and used to talk badly to everyone in the house. When Salman sir said he would need a dictionary for my language, I didn’t understand the point. But that weekend, it was clearly my mistake. I was furious and might have said anything. When he asked me to read the dictionary, I actually did. Main padh rahi thi aur mujhe hasne ka mann ho raha tha.”
Farrhana acknowledged that she shouldn’t have spoken the way she did and felt she was unfairly singled out at times.
She explained:
“I felt it was becoming too much. I forget that I’m on national TV… There were moments when ten people in the house would say the same word and no one picked on it, but the moment Farrhana Bhatt said it, it became a Weekend Ka Vaar issue.”
“I Wanted to Leave the House” — Farrhana Shares Her Breaking Point
Farrhana revealed there was a moment during the 11th week when she genuinely wanted to quit Bigg Boss.
She said:
“I was so happy that week. I kept telling everyone that I won’t be targeted this time. But that day left me traumatized because the dictionary was introduced for my language. There comes a point when you feel you don’t want to be part of something. I wanted to exit the house. It was too much for me.”
Despite the emotional overwhelm, Farrhana stayed, eventually finishing as the runner-up of Bigg Boss 19. She now views the experience as transformative, though the emotional journey was far from easy.
