“The girl people saw on Bigg Boss 13 was struggling, but it couldn’t compare to what I lost after Sidharth’s death,” she added. “I was carefree, impulsive, and happy-go-lucky, but my innocence changed after he left.” Shehnaaz admitted that sometimes she looks at her old Instagram reels from her Bigg Boss days and wonders about the stark contrast to who she is today. “I look at those reels and think, ‘What was I? Was I like this?’ Life changed me. That girl was different, easygoing and cheerful. Life changed on its own, and he changed me too,” she said.
