Candy Brar was evicted from Bigg Boss on Saturday. Sounding utterly relieved she said, “That place was not for me. I was there for barely two weeks, and it was suffocating. I just couldn’t take it. Not that anyone had a fight with me or was rude to me, or anything. Nothing like that. But there was so much negativity in there. If I had stayed one more week I’d have fallen ill.” Candy has no complaints against any of the other contestants. “They were all very nice to me. And I’ve come away with at least 4 very good friends: Armaan Kohli, Tanisha, Eli and Andy. And yes, from among the new entrants Sofia. Even the others were okay with me. Nobody raised his or her voice at me.” In fact Armaan and Tanisha were heard imploring viewers to not eliminate Candy Says Candy happily, “Usually contestants go behind each other’s backs and vote against the very people they swear they are their friends. But here some of them were actually asking that I not be eliminated. It was heartwarming...but I had to get out.” And yet Candy was a nervous wreck in there. “It was the atmosphere in there. Everybody was eager to make his or her presence felt. Most of them are actors, so they can orchestrate mood changes to suit their needs. Someone like Ajaz Khan knows exactly how to manipulate his moods to provoke others. I couldn’t do that. I am not someone from the limelight. I didn’t know how to attract attention to myself. I didn’t want to.” Candy confesses that on many occasions she found herself on the verge of breaking down. “I am the kind of person who gets nervous at the slightest of negativity. Very frequently in there (inside Bigg Boss) when tempers flew high my heart started palpitating. I’d try to find a corner away from the camera to cry. Maybe I shouldn’t have gone in there.” Candy says the reason she went in there was not money. “Nowadays 50 lakh can’t even buy you a home. So money was not the criteria. I went in there because someone I didn’t know at all (Vivek Mishra) took my name in the context of Kushal Tandon. I suddenly began getting calls from all and sundry asking what was that all about. I am not used to being questioned by relative strangers. I’ve a very small circle of close friends whom I’m comfortable with. Here I was suddenly getting calls and messages from strangers. I just wanted to go in there and confront this guy. And look at my luck. The guy who had put me in a compromising position left. So I was basically left to wonder what I was doing in there.” Candy comes away from Bigg Boss swearing never to be part of any reality show. “I was on Roadies. But it was nothing like Bigg Boss. Here everyone was constantly playing mind games trying to provoke one another for no rhyme or reason. This was no place for me. Agar main wahaan ek pal aur rehti toh pataa nahin kya hota. But it was a learning experience. I’ve come out maybe a little stronger. I value my loved ones even more now. I can’t wait to meet my family again.” All the best, Candy!!!
