Delhi girl Priyanka Jagga says she finds Lopamudra Raut completely double-faced on "Bigg Boss" and feels the model tries hard to be sweet, which she isn't.
Priyanka, who was eliminated from "Bigg Boss 10," re-entered the house recently as a wildcard contestant. She said her opinions about the housemates took a 360 degree change after she came back on the show.
"I find Lopa double-faced. From outside I used to feel that she is right but now when I am performing tasks with her I can see how she goes wrong. But she tries to show that she is right," Priyanka told reporters at a press meet inside the Bigg Boss house.
"I used to think that Bani is unfair but after returning to the house my views changed because Bani is fair and Lopa is unfair. So, it is bad that to the viewer's things look opposite to what they actually are," she added.
Audience might criticise Priyanka and Om Swami for having a friendship based on convenience inside the "Bigg Boss" house, but the Delhi girl says it is absolutely fair if the duo use each other on the show.
While Om Swami has maintained Priyanka is like daughter to him, Priyanka on her part has always defended the godman even when rest of the Bigg Boss housemates have been against him.
When Priyanka was asked about the reality of her equation with Om Swami, she said, "I have not made friends on 'Bigg Boss'. There are some relationships in which the persons involved use each other for their benefit.
"Even if I am using Om Swami or he is using me, it is fair. For this game, that's absolutely fair. If someone is standing up for me, whether as a father or brother or friend, that's fine."
Since the Salman Khan-hosted show began, it has remained in news for the commoners participating on it rather than its popular contestants.
During the press conference, the celebrity contestants were asked the reason behind their lackluster performance on the show.
Bani replied, "This is the first time common people have been given centre stage so it makes sense that they are shown more than the celebrities. So, if commoners are shown more than us, it is fine with me."
Actor Rohan Mehra said that celebrities don't indulge in unnecessary fights, while common people like Manu Punjabi, Manveer and Om Swami have a lot of quarrels every now and then and that's why they hog the limelight.
