But the fact will leave you surprised that Sara had lost her 30% eye vision during her stint in Bigg Boss. Actually, in an exclusive conversation with GhaintPunjab, the diva made this startling revelation upon being asked if given a chance, would she like to participate in any reality show again?
Calling her ‘Bigg Boss’ experience really great, Sara says though it was for a very short time but that time taught her a lot. mainu lagda jo kuch hunda oh uhdiyan khedan ne. (whatever happens, it is all god’s plans). “Perhaps I wasn’t mentally strong enough at that time to take it on myself. I can’t argue, bitch or criticise others. Mere ton nahin hunda eh sab kuch. That’s not my personality. Even if you approach me and start talking about someone, I’d simply say, “Please don’t talk to me about that,” but every show has a format. Probably I couldn’t observe the show that way but what I know for sure is that it made me strong. If I’ll ever get a chance, I would never refuse an opportunity or movie if I like. My stint was so impactful that people still remember. However, for me it was very affective. I had an eye injury that left me with only 30% vision in my right eye. Nothing is more important to me than my mental and physical health. I can’t possibly hurt my mother by ignoring these things.”, she says as a concluding note.

Furthermore, addressing the footage not being aired, she had stated that it must have been avoided to avoid unnecessary negativity. “Our families get disturbed and feel stressed. If they would have not taken care of me, I would have complained but they took care of me very well.”
In addition to this, taking a dig at Nikki she was quoted saying, “While performing the task many people put a lot of harmful stuff right from bathroom cleaner to insect spray but at the end of the task everybody went to each other and apologized for doing that. But jisne meri aakhein kharab ki intentionally ya unintentionally, vo mere paas ek baar bhi nahi aayi sorry bolne ke liye. So, that was inhuman ki tum mein bilkul bhi insaaniyat naam ki chiz hi nahi hai. I went to the medical room 4-5 times but use koi farq nahi pada.”
