Pradeep Antony has taken to social media to address various concerns, emphasizing privacy, financial matters, and reflections on his stint in Bigg Boss Tamil season 7. 

Pradeep requested his fans, well-wishers and supporters on the internet to extend the courtesy of respecting the privacy of his family and friends. "Just one request for privacy. Kindly don't send me friend requests on Instagram. It is my personal space which I use to share my happiness with my friends," he said. 

"I feel social media is a mix of positives and negatives and it can tend to attack you on a very personal level," he added.

Pradeep was one of the popular contestants on the show. And he was confident of making it to the finals of this season. Based on the support he enjoys on social media, he might have achieved his goal, if not for his out-of-turn elimination. 

"I have nothing against any of my fellow contestants. Though I would think twice to associate with some of them in the outside world," he said. 

Pradeep was evicted from the show when the majority of women contestants accused him of threatening their safety within the house. And it became a very controversial issue in the history of Bigg Boss Tamil. 

"So in one way, I have to admit defeat as per Bigg Boss rules. It might look like I lost, but I really feel like I've won something huge which is priceless," Pradeep added.
