Asked what’s her equation with Kashmera Shah and Rakhi Sawant post getting evicted from Bigg Boss, Rupali had said, “A hundred Kashmeras (Kashmera Shah) is equal to one Rakhi Sawant! When we meet, we greet each other. But Rakhi is not important in my life,” reports Rediff.com.
She even shared how Bigg Boss helped her to become a household name. “Bigg Boss made me famous, and I enjoyed the attention. When I went to Vaishno Devi temple after the show, I was given special security and women came and told me that they voted for me. I got a lot of offers after that. But I was not mentally prepared for it. Bigg Boss taught me to be a better person. But my mother will still vouch that I am the same devil,” she said while sharing the show helped her both professionally and personally.
