Not one to let her resentment go unnoticed, she told the media, “I want to see the rule book of the show because if Isha (Sharvani) can stay on the show without performing, why was I eliminated despite getting good number of votes and marks? I feel it was unfair that an exception was made for her when she dislocated her elbow, but not for me. I too performed despite being unwell." She added, “I was suffering from high fever on the episode where Kareena Kapoor visited the sets. Also, despite a severe back pain, I still chose to dance,” She was extremely unhappy that no contestant or judge supported her when the decision was made. “I was angry when I heard the result.
