However, the trigger point for all his emotions was his ex-girlfriend and actress Isha Malviya, who time and again claimed he was a woman-beater and an aggressive person on the show. Abhishek had made it loud and clear that he took a lot of time to get over his former flame and even seeked help, for which he was mocked in the show as well by Isha and her current beau Samarth Jurel.

Now that the 105 days journey has concluded, has Abhishek come out stronger?

“I have come out stronger now. Now if my heart breaks I will be like go, I don’t want you,” Abhishek told IANS.

His biggest fear was letting go, he has overcome that too.

“The biggest fear was that and I overcame that. For me the biggest thing was that only. It was the only thing that was holding me back. Now, I will move forward and not look back,” he shared.

When asked if he felt that Isha and Samarth tried to tarnish his image with name calling, Abhishek refused to give an answer, and said: “I don’t want to talk about Isha anymore.”

Abhishek locked horns with almost all contestants in ‘Bigg Boss 17’ but it was Samarth, whose consistent poking, made him raise his hand, for which he till date is apologetic.

“I wouldn't have raised my hand but I don't know how it happened when he put my tissue in my mouth. That was a reaction. I never wanted to do that at all. It just happened. I still apologise. I dont want to be a hero because of that but I am still apologetic about it,” said Abhishek.

Even though he made it till Top 2, Abhishek had a hero’s journey and is proud.

“I am very happy because reaching till here is also a big deal for me. From the first day I was playing to win but I was playing like a winner but Munawar won. I am happy for that as well.

I was here to just show myself that I am also someone and I think I did that. I would wish that once I go out I have some good opportunities waiting for me,” said the ‘Udaariyaan’ actor.

Has he been signed up for the upcoming edition of Rohit Shetty’s stunt-based reality show ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi’.

He said with a laugh: “Don’t want to talk about Khatron Ke Khiladi as I don’t know what is going to happen.”
