Earlier, Kavita stated that Salman Khan was disinterested in listening to her side of the story on the show. She told Bollywood Hungama, “He doesn’t listen. He is not interested.”
Kavita also expressed her regret about participating in Bigg Boss 14. “I had a really bad experience. I still feel sick sometimes thinking about it. I puke and stuff, so yeah,” she added.
Meanwhile, Kavita had walked out of Bigg Boss 14 after a hearted argument with Rubina Dilaik and Abhinav Shukla. During her stint on the show, she also made headlines for her clashes with Eijaz Khan.
Earlier this year, Kavita announced her departure from TV industry due to its regressive content. She told Times Now that she is no longer interested in working in the television industry but is open to exploring opportunities in movies or web shows.
She added, “There was a time when TV was progressive and we had different kinds of shows. But now, the kind of content we’re showing is really bad for the young generations to watch. I have been a part of it as well and I am very sorry. I have contributed to that regression in some way. I don’t approve of what they show on television. Jo bhi bolo, hum Indians hain and hume lagta hai jo TV par dikh raha hai vo sach hain. We subconsciously get inspired by it.”
