She told the portal, “I am very proud of my journey and I don't regret anything. I don't regret why I did not stay till the end and walked out with Rs 14 lakh. People are telling me that you should have stayed back, you could have emerged as a winner or could also become a runner-up, but I did not want to take a chance. My mother is expected to undergo surgery, I desperately need money, my bank balance has come to zero.”
She further added, “I needed money for mother's treatment, chemotherapy. Nothing is bigger than my mother or not even the trophy. For me the audience's love and Salman Khan's gift of the bracelet to me is like a trophy. I walked away with the cash as second, third runner-up don't usually get anything and I did not want to take any risk. I don't know if waiting and letting go of the cash could have benefitted me.”
Speaking about facing the difficulties and pain inside the Bigg Boss 14 house, Rakhi told ETimes, “I faced a lot of difficulties inside the house. I also had my weak moments inside the house and had to go through a lot of pain physically, mentally. I had a trauma also inside the house. But I left everything, forgot my sorrows and just entertained people. Bigg Boss also knew very well that there is this contestant who is very sad, so let me give her a task and she will get happy and I will give my heart, soul to the tasks. I would do comedy, act to entertain people.” (ALSO READ: Bigg Boss 14 Grand Finale: Rakhi Sawant Explains Why She Had A Terrible Equation With Abhinav Shukla And Rubina Dilaik)
