'If I had loved Veena I would have proposed her' - Hrishant

Hrishant Goswami, the latest evictee of Bigg Boss 4, is surprised to be eliminated from the show because he expected to stay till the end.  But at the same time he does not regret the decision for taking up Bigg Boss 4.

Hrishant talks to Tellybuzz after his elimination from the show.

How do you feel being back from Bigg Boss?
I was surprised because I expected to be in the show till the end but unfortunately it did not happen. But at the same I am not at all upset because I have stayed this long which indicates that people have liked me.

How was the experience inside the house?
The experience was very challenging because when I took up the show I didn't know what to expect and every emotion of mine was tested and I am happy that I have given the tests properly and have come out safe. I do not regret for taking up the show.

Were there times when you felt that you have had enough and wanted to get out of the house?
Not at all and I actually wanted to stay till the end and I am surprised that I am eliminated.

What do you think of Veena Malik, do you really love her?
I want to make this clear that I do not love Veena Malik and if I had loved her then I would have proposed her, which I evidently didn't do. She is a very nice person and a very good friend of mine and in future, if she doesn't mind, I would definitely like to keep in touch with her because we shared really good times with each other.

What do you feel about Ashmit and Veena's closeness? Did you ever get jealous of that?
I never felt jealous and why would I feel jealous with their closeness. They are two independent adults and they have their own talks to share.

Who were your friends in the house?
Ashmit was the closest of all and my other friends were Khali Ji, Manoj Ji, Seema and Sara.

Viewers often felt that you and Ashmit were flirtatious with your actions, especially when Pamela entered. How do you justify your behavior?
Yes, we both were full on and geared up when she entered the house because I feel she is every boy's fantasy. But at the same time we were not at all disrespectful to her and she too enjoyed the stay and the time she spent in the house.

Do you think that Sameer should not have come back into the house?
Not at all and on the contrary I felt really happy for him that he is back because the way he left the house was not fair. He was not eliminated but was asked to move out where he did not have a choice and I was glad that he was back in the show. As far as my nomination is concerned, it was my personal choice to vote Sameer.

Manoj Tiwari cried a lot when you got eliminated. How close were you to him?
He is a very good friend of mine and will be in touch even after the show. This week even he had nominated me and I think the guilt made him emotional during the time of my exit.

Whose elimination did you feel is not justified at all?
I did not like when Rahul got eliminated because I shared a good bond with him. I have not contacted him so far as I was busy with the interviews, but after all the buzz I would definitely meet him peacefully.

What did you learn after being an inmate of Bigg Boss 4?
The whole stay was a learning experience and I have learnt my weaknesses and strengths from the situations that I went through. Staying with people of different characters also teaches you how to deal with them and also you can learn a lot from them too.

What are your plans after getting back home?
I would continue my modeling and simultaneously I would like to concentrate on my acting career. As a preparation I have already undergone acting classes including dance and I hope to get offers in future. 

Who do you think is the biggest player in the house and who do you think should win Bigg Boss 4?
In my opinion the biggest player in the house is Shweta and I would be happy if Seema Ji wins the show.

There is also a buzz that Hollywood actor Sylvester Stallone will be entering with Dolly Bindra; what would you like to comment on that?
I am a great fan of Sylvester Stallone and I have read his autobiography too; if he enters I will feel bad for myself because I am no longer in the house and would like to return. Dolly is actually sweet and there were times when we had good times with her and a person cannot be bad always but the situation makes them rough.
