Pavitra Punia talks about the tough times post Bigg Boss
She spoke to Etimes and said that she did face a bit of financial issues during the lockdown but the worst time was when she came out of Bigg Boss 14. She said that it was the darkest period of her life when she didn't have work, and the money she earned from Bigg Boss had run out while taking care of her family.
She added, "It's not about being rich, but rather about responsibility. For instance, if I'm in a hospital, I wouldn't ask my mother for her credit or debit card. It's a child's responsibility. Similarly, when you're with friends, you wouldn't ask if they have money when you're the one who's unwell, right? You understand what I mean."
