Pooja Bhatt, an actress and director, is a competitor on Salman Khan’s Bigg Boss OTT 2, where she frequently makes startling confessions about her life, particularly regarding her struggle with alcoholism. Pooja recently engaged in heartfelt chat with Jiya Shankar, during which she revealed the darkest period of her life.
Pooja claimed that after divorcing her husband of 11 years, she had reached her lowest point. For those who are unaware, she married Manish Makhija in 2003, but they divorced in 2014.
Pooja further disclosed that after the divorce, she went through a period of turning to drink to get away from the confusion in her head.
Pooja and Jiya were seen talking in depth in the most recent episode. She admitted that she made the decision to dissolve the union because she “didn’t feel like continuing it.”
She went on to say that while her husband was not a bad person, she felt like she had lost herself in her 11-year-old relationship. “It was called off suddenly and it felt like death but people ask if you are okay and people prefer you say so. And later, you go and hide behind alcohol because the bottle delivers. Then I thought that I wanted to set myself free and find myself but I drilled myself more into bad zone,” she admitted.
Pooja continued, “I pushed myself to the bottom of the pool, and suddenly one survivor’s instinct crept in, and I clawed my way out and I said nahi boss I am not giving up on myself.”
The actress continued, “Today, I don’t deny that phase; I bravely accept it and declare to the universe that I am now ready.”
Pooja, one of the contestants, has already secured her spot in the Finale week.
Elvish Yadav, Bebika Dhurve, and Abhishek Malhan have already reserved their spots for the Finale week in addition to Pooja.
The week’s nominees, on the other hand, include Jiya Shankar, Jad Hadid, Manisha Rani, and Avinash Sachdev. It will be intriguing to see who leaves the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house during the weekend.
