Vida Samadzai, 33, is the latest housemate to be evicted from Bigg Boss Season 5.
 
The former Miss Afghanistan (2003) tried her level best to speak in Hindi on the show, and learn more about India culture.
 
She enthusiastically cooked up delicious meals for everyone in the house, and they will surely miss her culinary skills. 

Vida claims she loved being a part of the show, so her eviction was a disappointment for her. She talks to Rajul Hegde about her Bigg Boss experience.

'I have been getting an offer to participate in Bigg Boss from season 1'

Why do you think you were evicted?

I don't know if I was able to connect with the audience. It was a bit emotional to leave behind friends like Juhi Parmar, Shonali Nagrani, Amar Upadyay and Mahek Chahel. 
 
I am just waiting for them to come out and for us to go to Greece for a holiday.

Any particular reason you agreed to take part in Bigg Boss?

Not really. I have been getting an offer to participate in Bigg Boss from season 1. But I couldn't take it up due to my prior commitments. This season, too, I was in Germany when I got this offer but when I came back to India, the offer was still open so I thought I will give it a try. I came here just two days before entering the house so I hardly had any time to shop.

'I love to stay in India'

Do you think visibility on television will help you to get more work?

It makes no difference but I will be more than happy if I get good work. You get good work only when you have a good manager. I have walked the ramp for many designers. I have done lots of modelling and television commercials. I love to stay in India but have been travelling to UK and US for work. 

I am also a motivational speaker with Face Lift Foundation -- that is a polishing / finishing school based in New Delhi. They have three other branches in India and I have been working with them, teaching college students about etiquette, fitness, health and human resources.

Will you do a film if you are offered one?

Yes. Why not?

'There were lots of misunderstandings and unnecessary fights and arguments in Bigg Boss'

Any favourite actor?

Hrithik Roshan. He looks like a Hollywood star. And, of course, Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt -- I am just getting to know him.

What was your Bigg Boss experience like?

I would describe it as a wonderful experience where I met people with strong characters. In the beginning, everything went smoothly but as time passed, the reality hit them. There were lots of misunderstandings and unnecessary fights and arguments.

'Pooja has the tendency to get physical in an argument'

You tried to stay away from Sky (Akashdeep Saighal) and Pooja Missra.

Yes. Why should I waste my energy on people like Sky, who are never ready to listen to anyone? He is not an amazing person at all. I will try not to keep in touch with him after the show. 

Pooja has the tendency to get physical in an argument. If there is any good psychiatrist around, please send them to the Bigg Boss house.

How do you think the boys will react to Sunny Leone (the Indo-Canadian porn star)'s entry into the house?

The boys will be very happy because lately there have been only boys entering the house.

Who do you think will win Bigg Boss?

I think Juhi, because she is simple and balanced.
