Sonali Raut Reflects on Her Bigg Boss Marathi 6 Experience and Future Endeavors
Sonali Raut, celebrated for her bold and unapologetic presence on reality television, recently captured attention with her short but impactful stint on Bigg Boss Marathi 6. Although her journey was prematurely ended due to health concerns, Sonali left a lasting impression by speaking her mind, demonstrating emotional maturity, and providing a candid perspective on the house dynamics. In an exclusive conversation, she delves into Omkar Raut's eviction, Rakhi Sawant's entry, the cultural differences she encountered, and her professional roadmap ahead.
Reaction to Omkar Raut's Eviction from Bigg Boss Marathi 6
Sonali Raut expressed surprise at Omkar Raut's sudden eviction from the show. "I watched yesterday's episode and saw he was shocked by the eviction," she recalled. "When my eviction happened, I told him to please continue." She emphasized that she had encouraged Omkar to stay and fully experience the show, citing her own exit was health-related. "I am getting out because of my health reason, so you continue the show because you want to stay and experience it. Go ahead, all the best."
Reflecting on Omkar's journey, Sonali noted that everything was new for him. "He told me it was the first time he held a mic, so for him, it was a first-time experience with television," she said. When asked about Omkar's comment that they could have had a fun, flirtatious angle if they stayed longer together, Sonali smiled and acknowledged, "That guy is very cute, no doubt, and I did tell him that."
She explained why things might not have favored him, attributing it to the novelty of the environment. "For him, it was just new. A lot of things were new, and he was trying to catch up, which led to him getting lost in the bargain," Sonali added. Drawing from her own experience, she highlighted the challenges: "If even I am new on a show like that, I would be lost. So many things are happening—competition, pressure, survival instinct." Despite his eviction, she believes Omkar has a promising future. "That boy has done pretty well for himself. He should look for new opportunities in television, movies, or series, and get into it full-time."
Showcasing Multiple Sides of Her Personality
Sonali Raut believes the audience witnessed various facets of her personality during her brief stay. "I'm quite unpredictable; even I don't know how I'll be in such a situation," she admitted. Addressing her relationships with fellow contestants, she said, "When it happened with Ruchita, I was new. They thought I was hoity-toity and looked down on people, which is not true."
She struggled to relate to the emotional tone of the Marathi version, citing her background. "Honestly, I didn't relate that much. I'm a big city girl, quite bold and different," Sonali explained. She held back due to the contestants' personal struggles. "Everyone has their own struggle stories. When I saw them, I felt I couldn't fight with these people as they are already struggling visibly." This affected her deeply: "I literally felt they themselves are struggling, so how do I deal with them?" Looking back, she concluded, "Whatever stay I had, it was good with everyone; my circumstances were just different."
Revealing Knowledge of Rakhi Sawant's Entry
Sonali Raut disclosed that she was aware of Rakhi Sawant's entry beforehand. "I knew Rakhi was coming, and I said it in media before entering Bigg Boss," she revealed. She recalled meeting Rakhi just days prior: "I met Rakhi two days ago, and she told me, 'You come out of the house, and I am going in tomorrow.'" Although disappointed they couldn't share screen space, she praised Rakhi's personality. "Rakhi is super entertaining, and I am sure she will go there and rock it. She is also gentle; we all look strong but have that emotional side."
Health, Exit, and Future Plans
Opening up about her health, Sonali stated, "I am on treatment but will resume work from the 13th onwards." She firmly confirmed she won't return to the house: "They asked me to go back, but I said no way. I will never go back." Discussing her future, she outlined upcoming projects. "I have shows and a vertical series in the pipeline, shooting from February onwards," Sonali said. She added, "I have a Valentine show, so I am going to Kathmandu, then Colombo." This expansion of her professional endeavors highlights her commitment to diverse roles and international engagements.
