Nigaar, sister of last year's 'Bigg Boss' winner Gauahar Khan, becomes the eighth contestant to be ousted from the show after Sukirti Kandpal, Deepshikha Nagpal, Natasa Stankovic, Minissha Lamba and Sushant Divgikar and Arya Babbar.
The 35-year-old actress had a short stint of less than two weeks on the show, hosted by Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. She entered the 'Bigg Boss' house two weeks back as a wild card and got nominated for eviction in the first week itself of her stay.
Nigaar, however, is happy with her elimination as she could not tolerate the negativity in the house.
Besides her, other contestants who were nominated this week were Karishma Tanna, Dimpy Mahajan and Sonali Raut.
The actress, mainly known for her portrayal of negative characters on TV soaps, said being a wild card was a disadvantage and had she been on the show from the beginning she would have gone a long way.
"If I was on the show from the beginning, this eviction would not have happened. Timing of my entry was wrong. People already equations with others. I took time to mingle with them. The audience connect would have been far better had I been a regular contestant," she said.
"I showed tolerance and patience and humanity. I am proud of myself. I stood up for right and wrong and also for women. I was a strong personality in the house and someone who voices her opinion. I come out as a good human being," she said.
'Bigg Boss 8' airs on Colors everyday.
