This week was truly a heartbreaker for many of the fans of the international model cum Bigg Boss OTT 2 contestant Jad Hadid. Ths reson is because that. he got evicted this week. Even though Jad Hadid could not understand the language inside the Big Boss OTT2 house, still, the international model Jad Hadid managed to win everyone's hearts and attention by speaking the language of love and affection. 

To start with, how are you feeling right now? Sense of fulfilment of having participated in India’s biggest reality show or the feeling of so near yet so far?
All my friends who are inside the Bigg Boss OTT 2 are my ‘habibis’. And the time that was spent there was spent in understanding each other’s personalities. None of us are carrying any luggage from the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house. So, whatever happened there, remains there, without any negativity for each other and also no bad blood for anyone. We all are going to catch up again without any camera.

Do you feel bad about losing the gold or feeling good about winning the silver?
The moment I entered the Big Boss OTT 2 house, I was welcomed gracefully and treated like a king, regardless of whatever mistakes that I have made. You guys love a lot. Where I come is different. Forgiveness and love are what I have seen here. I feel great being a part of the show. Just like India, even Bigg Boss OTT 2 is also home to me. When I said that I am not here for the trophy, Salman Khan's words were like a slap on my face. He said that I am here to win the trophy. That motivated me to do everything better from there.

In case you plan to do any introspection, do you think who is/ are responsible for your elimination?
Nobody is/ are responsible for my eviction. It’s totally the audiences’ call. The guys out there have huge followers on social media. BUT… having said that, here I was who made it to the seventh week. I was not even sure about the fourth week. I am extremely happy that I made it to the seventh week. It's definitely the cherry on the top!

What, do you think, went wrong with you that you got eliminated?
I am not that active on social media plus I come from a different background.

Did or didn’t Abdu Rozik give you any dos and don’ts whilst inside the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house?
He just told me to be myself.

What’s your take on the victim card? And who in the house plays the victim card as their trump card?
I am not sure about it, but I think Jiya initially. While, initially, she was with us, eventually, she went on the other side. For me, friendship is everything. It means everything to me.

After seeing so called friendship and backstabbing inside the house, is your faith in humanity still intact?
Nothing to do with my faith in humanity. We all have good and bad in us. It all depends upon where do we use the good and where do we use the bad.

Who do you think is your friend for life from the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house?
Avinash definitely. I also got connected with Abhishek, Elvish and Pooja. Speaking of Pooja, she is just like family to me.

Abhishek gave his locket as a token of remembrance. Will you be giving him anything in return from your side?
I will give him something special when Icome back from Dubai. He is my brother for life.

How will you describe the following people in one word:

Abhishek Malhan
Winner at heart

Puneet Superstar
Never had any interaction with him. He left the show too soon.

Falaq Naaz
She is like a sister to me. She is a person with an amazing heart.

Jiya Shankar
Flipper (laughs)

Akanksha Puri
Without saying too much, she is a great kisser and an amazing hearted person.

Cyrus Broacha
The mutton guy, hungry all the time!

Manisha Rani
My babu

Bebika Dhurve
Tough cookie

Avinash Sachdev
Brother from another mother

Palak Purswani
Even though I did not get to know her much, she is a cutie-pie.

Pooja Bhatt
She is rock-solid. She is my healer.

Salman Khan
My mentor. I thank him from the bottom of my heart. Every time he mentioned my name, for negative or positive, that was my achievement. I felt that I made it.

Who do you think will be the top three contestants?
Pooja Bhatt, Elvish Yadav and Abhishek Malhan. The final winner could be between Elvish Yadav and Abhishek Malhan. I just hope that whoever deserves it wins it with respect.

Elvish Yadav entered the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house. Him coming late, was he at an advantage or disadvantage?
He has been through a lot. And despite him coming late, he has played his game really well.

What has been your biggest takeaway from the entire Bigg Boss OTT 2 journey?
I was able to connect with so many people at the same time.

Now that you have got trained in Bigg Boss OTT 2, are you mentally ready to be participating in the main format of Bigg Boss, if given a chance?
Of course yes. You will see Jad Hadid 2.0 in there! (smiles)
