Bigg Boss 19 contestant Habubu says she is preparing for the show with books & codes instead of Drama & fights

As contestants gear up for the next season of Bigg Boss, most are busy refining their image, preparing catchphrases, or planning how to stay relevant in front of the cameras. One participant, however, is taking a completely different route.

Habubu, a soft spoken newcomer in the Bigg Boss lineup, is focusing on artificial intelligence tools and coding skills as she prepares to enter the house. Rather than watching old episodes or strategizing how to win arguments, she is spending time working with programming languages and data models.

“People ask me why I’m preparing for Bigg Boss with books and code instead of drama and fights. But for me, intelligence isn’t something you switch off. I don’t want to just survive in the house. I want to observe it like a living simulation. Every argument, every friendship, every breakdown. It’s all data. I’m not here to perform. I’m here to understand,” says Habubu.

She has been studying Python, machine learning, and computer vision tools like TensorFlow and OpenCV in between regular preparations for the show. Her motivation is not to impress or stand out through performance, but to remain true to how she naturally approaches new environments.

“If the world wants entertainment, I’ll show them how powerful silence, logic, and emotional intelligence can be,” she says, while packing a Raspberry Pi device along with her clothes.

For Habubu, Bigg Boss is not just a competitive space but a chance to study human interactions in real time.

“Bigg Boss isn’t just a show. It’s a human lab. Full of raw emotions, power struggles, and unpredictable behavior. I don’t plan to get caught up in that mess. I’m going to track it. Just like how AI finds patterns in chaos, I want to see if I can find clarity in conflict. Maybe I’ll create a mental model of the house dynamics. Maybe I’ll train myself to stay grounded when everything goes loud. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll show people that being calm is the most powerful move.”

She also explains that her interest in artificial intelligence is not separate from her life in the Bigg Boss house. She plans to quietly observe emotional patterns, monitor interactions, and possibly anticipate outcomes based on behavior she records mentally.

“The twist? Her AI journey isn’t just about coding outside the house. She’s planning to use her skills to understand human patterns, behavioral loops, and maybe even predict who’s getting eliminated next. All while sitting quietly on the Bigg Boss couch, sipping chai and mentally plotting the graph of housemate meltdowns.”

She does not believe in changing herself to meet audience expectations.

“Sometimes I wonder how far logic can go in a space built on emotion. But that’s the fun part, right? I’m not here to change who I am. If anything, I want to show that being nerdy, being soft spoken, being different. Those aren’t weaknesses. They’re my strengths. I’ll be the girl who talks AI in the kitchen. Who journals housemate behavior patterns. Who meditates with machine learning metaphors in her head. And I’ll do it with grace.”

Habubu says she has been told she is too quiet for television. Her response is to remain observant and consistent.

“I’ve always been told I’m too quiet for TV. But sometimes, the ones who observe the most say the least. I don’t need to scream to be heard. I just need to stay true to myself. And if that means I’m the calm storm that changes the energy of the house, so be it. Let them talk. Let them plan. I’ll be busy building something. Maybe even a whole new way of playing this game.”
