Chandrika Dixit, popularly known as the ‘Vada Pav Girl,’ was recently evicted from Bigg Boss OTT 3. Her journey in the show was filled with highs and lows, including criticism from host Anil Kapoor, who accused her of playing the ‘victim card.’ However, Chandrika firmly denies this allegation.
Addressing the accusation, Chandrika explains, “The term ‘playing a victim card’ means constantly complaining and seeking sympathy. During my time in the house, I never did that. I wasn’t crying to the camera about everything, nor was I seeking sympathy. I focused on my life and spoke up if I felt something was wrong.”
In a Weekend Ka Vaar episode, Anil Kapoor reprimanded her, saying, “You always twist incidents to give them a different angle. What is your existence in this house? If a guy comments about a girl, it’s wrong. Why do you keep bringing up the topic between Armaan and Vishal?” This was in reference to an incident involving Armaan Malik and Vishal Pandey, where Vishal made a remark about Armaan’s wife, Kritika Malik.
Chandrika responds, “Is speaking up for someone who is unwell or asking for respect for an elder considered playing a victim card? When I felt something, I spoke up. I have never played a victim card, nor will I ever. Yes, I cry sometimes, but I also know how to roar like a lioness.”
Reflecting on Her Time in the House: Chandrika gained fame for her resilience and spirit, selling vada pavs on the streets of Delhi. Before entering the show, she was one of the most talked-about contestants, but the excitement seemed to wane once she was inside the house.
Reflecting on her brief stint, she shares, “My stay in the house was short and sweet. I was evicted in the third week of the show, which went live on JioCinema on June 21. I didn’t expect my stay to be this short. People inside the house were not against me, but I don’t know about outside. Perhaps the makers should reconsider approaching contestants with fewer followers.”
Chandrika’s journey in Bigg Boss OTT 3 may have been brief, but she remains steadfast in her stance and spirit, denying any claims of playing the victim and continuing to showcase her resilience.
