After a lot of drama and controversy about the way she behaved in the Bigg Boss house, Rimi Sen is finally relieved to be out of it. The actress was accused of being disinterested in the tasks and cribbing about the show since she went into the house. She even got chided by Salman for being disinterested. He warned her that with this attitude she will not get work outside. "I haven't worked for the last three years. Now, I want to work on a different level and am thinking of directing. For that one requires to have brains - it's not about how you can survive without food and water," she says.
Knowing the format of the show - where one is required to do different tasks - why did she go into the house then? "For me living in a limited budget, staying without food or water for hours together was torture not task. The fact that I had gone into house to stay with 13 strangers was in itself a task. But I participated in all the tasks, and did them only till I was comfortable."
Rimi adds that what you see on TV and what you experience when you are actually there are two different things. "I panicked on the first day itself. It was Kishwer (Merchant) Suyyash (Rai) and Prince, who helped me survive. I learnt to value little things like break and biscuit, build relationships because earlier I used to never interact with people," says Rimi. What stopped her from leaving the house when Bigg Boss gave her the option? "If I had got the opting in the first week I would have discussed and left, but after seven weeks I didn't want to. If I had to go, I wanted to be eliminated naturally," she reasons.
Ask her if she will be a part of any other reality shows and she says a big "No. I am done. I will probably consider doing Khatron Ke Khiladi if I am offered."
