Vikas Gupta, the mastermind of Bigg Boss Season 11 and one of the 3 finalists this season has had an overwhelming journey and has made a mark for himself like no other.
We at India-Forums got in touch with him, and asked him about his journey, his equation with Shilpa and Priyank and a lot more.
Scroll down to read what he said.
Fans are really upset that despite coming to the top 3, you couldn't win the show.
I would ask them to not be upset because I came to the top 3, I got the title of a mastermind, and of course so much of love from everybody. In fact, I think one should see who did I lost to; Hina Khan who has an 8 year long show to her credit, Shilpa Shinde who has a work experience of 15 years and they did work a little harder for this.
Are you happy about Shilpa's win or sad about your loss?
Well, I am definitely super happy about Shilpa winning the show but there is this little disappointment I have for not winning because at the very end where Salman lifts your hand, that is one feeling that can't be described.
Your journey has been a roller coaster ride. What was the major breakdown in the show?
The major break down on the show was when I was left alone in the house and the entire house had decided to gang up on me. That was a real task for me to deal with. But, every day I did have something that helped me keep going and was my ray of hope. As the game progressed, I did realise and understood that with great power comes great responsibility. One thing I am really happy about is that I did not hurt anybody and I kept all the promises that I made. I might not have won, but I am one of the most loved contestants on the show and I am very happy about it.
Your friendship with Priyank stumbled despite the fact that you've been really good friends since a long time.
Well, that you do need to ask Priyank himself only that what went wrong. I got really tired of supporting Priyank in the game but I think somewhere down the line there was a sense of competition that had kicked in but now that the game is over our friendship is definitely more important. I really adore that boy and he is really really nice, it is just this game that makes people do some unwanted things.
You received immense support from the telly industry. Comment.
Well yes, I've heard about it, but my brother had something else to say only and stated how nobody made a single vote appeal and everything but then I think even they must have thought that he does not need the vote appeals because he is playing a good game.
I heard that Kamya Punjabi went all out in support of me and I am thankful to her, I must tell you that I haven't even worked with her ever. We aren't such friends who meet twice or thrice a year, so we are just acquaintances, I think she supported me more than my family did. Then there is Karan Patel, Rithvik Dhanjani, Ravi Dubey, Sargun Mehta, so many people came out in my support and wanted me to win the game, but I did win many hearts. Out of all the people who have supported me, I have worked with just one person and yet they supported me, they must have seen something good in me.
What did you lose and win in the Bigg Boss House?
I got a lot of friends, and I got a lot of love, the kind that I did not expect. About losing, I don't think I've lost anything as such and whatever I have lost I think that's so minuscule that it doesn't matter. I am just so overwhelmed with all the love that I have received. There will always be haters, but I will change them with all my love, like I did in the Bigg Boss house.
Your equation with Shilpa is now all good. What plans about working together?
My equation with Shilpa is okay, not good or lovable or anything else. She is my colleague and a great player, and if there is anything exciting that comes up where we both think we can work together we will definitely do it.
What about Hina?
I and Hina I am sure will do something or the other together but I think me and Ro (Rocky Jaiswal) will party together more because our interests really match a lot and watch movies together and Hina can tag along when she doesn't really have an option.
Your message to the fans.
Thank you so much guys, I feel blessed that I reached the top 3 only because of your support. I really needed this in my life, the kind of support, the kind of love that I got. I hope that goodness prevails upon all of us.
We wish Vikas all the very best for the future endeavours.
