Further, Surbhi Jyoti disclosed the reason for not having an interest in doing the controversial reality show and said, "I think I'm not that competitive. I used to be very competitive when I used to participate in theatre and in debates in college. I won so many national championships in debates. But that's what I wanted to do to just go and perform the character and say my lines."
