Jigna Vora about her struggles when she was convicted for a murder case

In 2011, the then-journalist was falsely accused of a murder case of another famous crime reporter. That led her to be imprisoned for nine months in Byculla Jail. Even when she was out on bail, Vora had to fight for almost seven years to prove her innocence. In the year 2018, she was finally acquitted of all charges, however, it took a lot from her, "It took seven years of her life."

After her introduction to everyone on the first day inside the Bigg Boss house, Vora shared about her heart-wrenching past and mentioned that during those seven years, she had lost many people in her family and at times she had to leave them at the cremation centre so that she could be present when she was called. However, those are the things that made her stronger.
