Mumbai Sep 3 : Bigg Boss 19 has entered its first week and has already seen a lot of showdowns taking place.

Recently, Bollywood veteran Kunickaa Sadanand was seen taking a stand for her good friends Neelam Giri and Tanya Mittal, which made her go against the other contestants. Many young contestants in the house were seen bullying and mocking Kunickaa.

Kunickaa's close friend and actress Dipshikkha Nagppal has stepped in to show her support, praising the actress for her determination, wisdom and authenticity.

Talking about Kunicka and her game, Dipshikkha revealed a more personal side of the actress' journey to the show. 'She is such a talented actress. I have known her for years. When I first heard about Bigg Boss, she told me she wasn't going. I found it so strange.'

She added, 'Later, when Kunickaa was actually entering the house, she sent me a voice note saying she was not supposed to tell anyone, but she was grateful I reached out. Of course, I understood that was the right thing to do.'.

For Dipshikkha, Kunickaa is the reason to tune into this season. 'I watch the whole episode just for her. She will do very well in the show. Whatever she says has logic. She is not fighting just for no reason. She calls a spade a spade. She will fight for herself and for others also. On top of that, she has studied law. I want to see how she will handle everything. I really want her to be in the top five,' she added.

Talking about Kunickaa Sadanand, the actress was recently seen in a brawl with contestant Farrhana Bhatt. In anger, the latter was seen crossing all lines and even went onto call Kunickaa a flop actress. She even involved Kunickaa's children in the fight and said that they must be ashamed of their mother.
