Actress Pavitra Punia, who was the contestant in Bigg Boss 14 says, “More than the lockdown, the most challenging time for me was when I came out of Bigg Boss. It was the darkest period of my life when I didn't have work.” Further, she opens up about the financial crisis she faced. All the money that she has earned from Bigg Boss was exhausted while taking care of her family. 
The Ishq Ki Dastaan - Naagmani actress added, “I wasn't struggling or juggling with anything during Covid; I was just living a very happy life.” After her father’s road accident, the following one and a half years were drastic. Pavitra was on the verge of depression and was struggling with mental health leading to suicidal thoughts. However, the love of her family saved her. Her immense love and karmic duty for her dogs stopped her from doing something irreversible. She added, “ It's not about being rich, but rather about responsibility.”

I kept questioning myself, wondering what I had done to end up in this position.” Her family supported her financially but that strangely doesn’t bring her any happiness.
Recently, Pavitra Punia showed her support for the Bigg Boss 17 winner Munawar Faruqui on his situation in BB house. She took to her Twitter handle and wrote, “Have some decency and not character assassin #MunawaraFaruqui @munawar0018 everybody here belong to a family. Even if madam #AyeshaKhan said something personal, you guys should have avoided displaying it on national television. #shamebb. Oh by the way he has a child. Stay strong M.”
