Bigg Boss Telugu 4's evicted contestant Karate Kalyani: It could have financially helped me if I survived for two more weeks

Right Arrow

  • Noted supporting actress Karate Kalyani was the recent contestant to get evicted from Bigg Boss Telugu season 4. ETimes-TV got the actress talking about her brief BB stint and what it meant to her. Excerpts:
    (By SriRaam Chelluri)

  • I wanted to stay in the BB house for at least 5 weeks. It could have helped me financially if I could stay longer. Lockdown has affected all of us in every which way and I've responsibilities to shoulder and debts to clear. But I want to get close to the audience and showcase my acting talent, remind people of the late iconic actress Suryakantham garu and I think I've achieved all of that within a short period of time.

  • When Nagarjuna garu told me that I've been gossipping around and miscommunicating things, I've got a hint that something which is not me is communicating to the outer world. That is when I realised that I'd get eliminated next.

  • I should admit that self-nominating myself was more of an emotional decision which was not the right thing to do at that moment. I've soon realised that I would have survived for a week or two, given more content in the upcoming weeks if I wouldn't decide to self-nominate in the boat task.

  • It has been 20 years since I gave up martial arts. It gave me the physical strength and endurance to withstand any odds in life. But since I grew up in a family full of musicians and artists, I'm still very sensitive at heart. Maybe I would have performed better in a physical task and a mind game.

  • Right from evergreen classics to unheard ones, I used to sing many songs since music is a part of DNA. Housemates fondly call me 'tape recorder'. My Harikatha talent has in fact mesmerised everyone in the house. I'm not sure if those episodes were aired but they would have got me some more votes.

  • I was told by many that they couldn't vote to me as their votes were diverted to some other contestant, not sure how. Besides my family, anyone who wants to vote for me tries once or twice but if they are duped due to such flaws, how will my vote bank increase?

  • If you've observed, I was still trying to vent out all my feelings and inputs in the post-eviction interaction because that was my only chance to speak out. But Nagarjuna garu intervened and bid goodbye to me. I felt bad at the moment. But I understand as a host, he has some instructions to take and since they are the producers, they reserve all the rights to show us the way they want.

  • Anyone who knows me personally knows that I'm not someone who strategizes so much. I wear my heart on my sleeve and speak my heart out. Yes, I'm loud and people are quick to judge me by that nature. A few contestants like Sujatha who read me quickly took advantage of this nature of mine and played a smart game. I've realised it lately, but this is who I am. So, I've no regrets whatsoever.

  • Yes, I'm up for a wild card re-entry and I'm hopeful, too. There are many who feel I'm eligible for it. I'm glad for the support and confidence they gave me. This time, I will try to be more composed and smart enough as I've enough understanding of the contestants and their gameplay.

  • I heaved a sigh of relief after seeing my mom and son. You know that feeling of getting back to your adda is so good (laughs). I promised Siva Balaji to make a call once I stepped out of the house and I kept my promise. He was the one who'd always encourage me. He was so glad that I didn't change a bit.

  • I feel Bigg Boss house is much better than the outside world amid the rapid spread of COVID-19. We had undergone 4-5 COVID-19 tests, everything was sanitised well and our temperatures and oxygen levels were monitored regularly. They took good care of us and we felt so safe and secure inside the house.
