MUMBAI: Bigg Boss 14 contestant Eijaz Khan has said that he had a terrible time during the lockdown and that he participated in the reality show to use it as a launchpad for a career comeback.
In an interview, Eijaz spoke about facing financial difficulties but said that this wasn't the only reason that he agreed to be a part of Bigg Boss. Eijaz abruptly left the show due to prior work commitments but has hinted at a comeback
He further revealed, "I went through a very challenging career. Financially challenging also and that we cannot count as there were more people who went under more challenging times... It was difficult. But my difficulty was not more than all those people who were walking on the roads with their children... People have seen worse times. Mujhe nahi bolna ki lockdown mein mere saath kya hua (I don't want to talk about what the lockdown was like for me). But yes, I was going through a financially challenging phase but that was not the only reason that I picked up Bigg Boss.".
He continued, "Of course, I wanted to make a comeback. I wanted to make clear that perceptions about me were a false perception and I saw this as a right platform. I decided to go and become the winner of this game and now with all the love and affection which I am getting by my fans, what can go wrong with me?".
