Shilpa Shinde on winning Bigg Boss 11: Hina Khan's opposition made my game stronger

After 105 days of drama, emotions, laughter and tears, Bigg Boss 11 found its winner in former Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain actor Shilpa Shinde. Shilpa beat her closest rival Hina Khan to take home the trophy and prize money of Rs 44 lakh. The 40-year-old actor seemed the obvious choice from day one — not only because of her nation-wide popularity, but also because she was considered the most authentic and entertaining among all the contestants. While her journey in the house saw several twists and turns, Shilpa was sure she would win.
“I didn’t know any strategy for winning, but I was real, even though people in the house kept saying I was overconfident. Outside, a lot of people had misconceptions that I throw tantrums and am very arrogant... I knew my
Bigg Boss stint would change that. You cannot pretend to be something you're not for 105 days in front of more than 100 cameras. I was confident that the world will also get to know and understand me through this show. I am a simple person in real life... you could call me conservative but people like simplicity and they helped me win. Nobody from the industry supported me but my fans were always there.
