Exclusive - Bigg Boss 17's Samarth Jurel: I did not appreciate that Isha did not maintain the dignity of our relationship, she's giving hopes to Abhishek Kumar
Bigg Boss 17 contestants Isha Malviya and Abhishek Kumar's complicated relationship has become one of the highlights of the reality show this season. While their disagreements and problems are far from getting over, Bigg Boss recently introduced a new twist and Isha's current boyfriend Samarth Jurel entered the show as the wildcard contestant. Before going inside the Bigg Boss 17 house, Samarth spoke to ETimes TV about his girlfriend Isha Malviya's closeness with her ex-boyfriend Abhishek Kumar and the latter's aggressive nature. Samarth is furious over Isha's game, but he calls it her immaturity. (Photo: Instagram)
On his participation in Bigg Boss 17
Yes, this is probably the first time that wildcard entries are brought into the show so early. I am not nervous, I am excited. I am looking forward to meeting two-three people inside and that excites me the most. My family's reaction was don't go, you are a very good person in real life, what will you do on the show, tu toh bahut accha baccha hai.. But then they agreed and my brother was very excited to watch me on the show. He's just waiting for me to go inside Bigg Boss. (Photo: Instagram)
On accepting the offer so early in his carrer
Bigg Boss is a platform that can work for every individual. This allows you to reach to the audience and share your stories with the audience like Jigna Vora got a chance to share her side with the audience. This platform is not just restricted to actors, people from different walks of life can join the show and share about their journeys and struggles. Why should I wait for my career to go down and then accept the offer of Bigg Boss. I accepted it now because I believe right now I am in the best phase. I am 22, shakal bhi theek hai, mentally I am stable and I should do the show. (Photo: Instagram)
Bagging Bigg Boss
It is the right time to do the show. My last show, Maitree, was over 22 days ago and I've bagged another opportunity. I did not want to do another daily soap back to back so I decided to watch Bigg Boss 17. This is a new thing for me and it is the right decision. (Photo: Instagram)
The only disadvantage I feel I have is that all the other contestants have settled in
I don't think anybody in the house is playing any extraordinary game. Ek hafte mein kisi ne kuch nahi kiya hai ab tak. Yes, I agree there have been no tasks this season until now, but I see them just sitting and gossiping. I don't consider my entry as a wildcard because I am entering the house within two weeks. Had I entered the show after a few eliminations and a month later then my perspective towards the game would have been different. The only disadvantage I feel I have is that all the other contestants have settled in and I haven't. Rest everything is going to be the same. (Photo: Instagram)
Isha is my girlfriend and I am very disappointed with her
Isha and I've been dating for a year now. She is my girlfriend and I am very disappointed with Isha. I am feeling extremely bad to see whatever is happening inside but I would also like to add that she is just 19 year old and has made a few mistakes. I would like to tell people that whatever she has done in the house, please consider it as her bachpana and nadani (childishness and innocence). She is not at all fake and I don't want to ruin her image. (Photo: Instagram)
Isha has potential but she's making mistakes
From the moment she entered the house, she has been making mistakes. She is going in a wrong direction totally, she has so much potential but still she has lost the plot completely. I'll see what damage control I can do. (Photo: Instagram)
Abhishek is an animal
Abhishek toh jaisa hai waisa behave kar raha hai, woh janwar (animal) hai aur waisa he behave kar raha hai. He is nalayak, anpadh, bewakoof and gawar and he's proving everything whatever I have just called him with his action. I saw him misbehaving with Isha, holding her hand tightly, now that I'm going inside, I won't let all these things happen. (Photo: Instagram)
On why Isha is not accepting their relationship
It is her personal choice to deny out relationship in the house. I am not at all upset about it because in the industry actors do such things. They don't like to disclose about their personal life, especially love life. What I did not appreciate about her was that she did not keep the dignity of this relationship, she is giving hopes to Abhishek Kumar, which I am against. I was hurt seeing whatever is happening and I was helpless because I am not in the house. (Photo: Instagram)
If Isha feels she wants to be with Abhishek, I'll leave from her life
I am very upset with her and I don't think it will be easy for me to just go inside and forget everything. But at the same time, I don't want anything wrong to happen to her...uska career kharab nahi hona chahiye. If she feels she still wants to go with Abhishek and wants to be with him, I'll leave from her life. She can happily be with Abhishek. I am ready to sacrifice my love. (Photo: Instagram)
Isha is behaving immature
I don't think she's confused, whatever she's doing it is immaturity. She's not able to make her decision. She's making mistakes. (Photo: Instagram)
Isha is looking like Ankita's Chamchi
I don't think she's Jr Ankita or behaving like her assistant, I know she shares a bond with both Ankita and Vicky, but at the same time, she is looking like her side-kick or chamchi. She has a lot of potential and she can do better. (Photo: Instagram)
Whatever Abhishek is doing most of it is fake and made up
Yes, I agree Abhishek has not been able to forget Isha or move on in life. But I disagree that he's in a vulnerable state. He's hurt but woh 10 percent ko 70 percent bana ke dikha raha hai. It is totally made up, it is his nature and uski harkatein fake aur made up hai.. He's totally copying all the previous contestant like Asim Riaz, Gautam Gulati and others. (Photo: Instagram)
