SHE’S BIG IN INDIA –
Aug. 12, 2023 – Mahesh Bhatt’s entry in the family week to meet daughter Pooja was one of the biggest highlights. Among many things they talked about, one of them was his new found respect for Pooja. He praised her for being calm and going out of the way to do household chores. He told her, “You have made me feel proud. I am seeing you as a person here. When a student becomes better than the teacher then in our customs the teacher bows down to the student.” This got them both emotional. Mahesh Bhatt also spoke about the time he had Pooja and how ‘she looked angry’ when she was born. He also praised her for stepping in for the family when they faced a financial crisis.
Pooja and Bebika Dhurve became close friends during their stay in the house. Even though Pooja has always been supportive of her, she has also been critical. The two ended up fighting during the ‘Ticket to Finale’ task. Pooja told her, “When I like someone, I give them the privilege to bite my head if they want to. I’ve given that thing to Bebika because I like her as a person. I don’t tell others anything because I don’t have any expectations from them. However, Bebika will continue to feel that I target her only.” Bebika replied to her, “This is not right Pooja ma’am. I’ve noticed that you always target me. I feel bad about it and I think you should also tell others about their mistakes.”
