What would you like to say about your journey?It was a magical journey for me. It went on for 100 days. And today I am here sitting as a winner, which means a lot to me.Was there a turning point where you felt you had to change your game?Yes, in the very first week. I felt that on national television, I was being presented as a “Tantta queen.”
It hit me directly. I asked myself, “Are you going to play like this?” I realized that whatever Ritesh bhau said reflects what people think, and I never wanted to be presented in a bad light.I also thought about the responsibility of being on national television, and kids watch us. If we are sending a message, it should be a good one. That’s when I realized I didn’t come here to be this “Tantta Queen.” That week I told Bhau that the audience won’t see me like this next week.
I accepted my mistake and decided to correct it.After that, wherever my mistakes were pointed out, I worked on them. I tried not to repeat them, avoided unnecessary fights, and changed the way I reacted. I listened to everyone, not just myself, and kept improving. That’s how my game shifted, and I became better. I also kept my ears open during ‘Bhau Cha dhakka.’ I also learned from the mistakes that others made and realized that such mistakes also won’t be tolerated.
So I learned from the feedback that even others got and improved my game.What was the best moment in the house?Winning the ticket to the finale. I didn’t expect I would win that task.Even in the last blindfold task, you seemed scared. Were you scared of losing? What was going on in your mind?Yes, I was scared. Actually, I am scared of the dark, and also I have claustrophobia. So when they held my hand and also blindfolded me, I was petrified; I became even more afraid.
I was sure that if the dancers left my hand, I would open the blindfold, as I am damn scared of darkness.At the same time, I was tensed as I was thinking about the elimination as we were only four people left, and all were strong contenders (Vishal Kotian, Anushri Mane, Raqesh Bapat, and including me). If people chose me among them, it meant I had achieved something. It was a mix of emotions.Who did you enjoy being with the most in the house?I enjoyed being with everyone from the Kaata gang; we had our moments.
With them, my journey in Bigg Boss got smooth.How was your experience with Rakhi?Rakhi is on another level. Our tasks were on one side, and Rakhi’s presence was on another. Whoever played well with Rakhi benefited. I had a very bad fight with her in the house, but later somewhere I realized that she has a kind heart, and also somewhere she has a child in her. Later, I also saw her emotional side and felt she was genuinely a good person.Q: Now that you’ve won, what’s next? How will you take this forward?A: This trophy is a responsibility. People have given me so much love, and I won’t let it go in vain. The audience has made Tanvi Kolte a brand, and I want it to grow and sustain it. I’ll make sure it never falls and that I continue to earn people’s trust. I want to achieve even more in life.Q: Any plans for films or future projects? Are you eyeing films, Bollywood, or TV?A: I will do everything I can. I won’t give up on any opportunity, big or small. I’ll keep working hard and give my best in whatever comes my way.
