Anshula Kapoor, sister of Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor, has recently stated that she will "NEVER" participate in Salman Khan's reality show, Bigg Boss. This comes after her experience on Karan Johar's reality show, "The Traitors". In an exclusive interview, Kapoor explained her reasoning, stating she doesn't see Bigg Boss as a game show and isn't currently in the mindset to engage with its format.

Kapoor openly discussed the difficulties she faced after "The Traitors," a show where she was diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). She emphasized that "The Traitors" and "Bigg Boss" have fundamentally different formats. "Traitors is not Bigg Boss," she stated, highlighting that "Traitors" is a psychological show filmed over two weeks, whereas "Bigg Boss" has a much longer duration.

"I don't watch Bigg Boss, so I don't really know what the current Bigg Boss looks like, but I know I am not cut out for it just yet right now," Kapoor admitted. She expressed doubts about her ability to enjoy herself in the "Bigg Boss" environment. Kapoor clarified, "I do not believe Bigg Boss is a game show".

Kapoor's experience on "The Traitors" appears to have significantly impacted her perspective on reality television. She signed up for "The Traitors" believing it would be an intelligent game but found the experience traumatic and stressful. Kapoor revealed that she underwent intensive therapy after the show, as personal trauma resurfaced due to conversations and the challenging final mission. She felt a lack of support on set, despite requesting it after a particularly triggering mission. "It was psychologically bullsh** and I didn't want to subject myself to this," Kapoor explained.

"The Traitors," hosted by Karan Johar, involved celebrity participants residing at Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer. The "Innocents" had to identify and eliminate "Traitors" secretly designated by the host. Kapoor's journey on the show ended with her elimination, after which she openly discussed the mental health challenges she faced. She emphasized that she did not have PTSD before entering the show and that the environment itself was traumatizing.

Kapoor's decision to avoid "Bigg Boss" reflects her focus on mental well-being and her assessment of the show's environment. While she appreciates the support from her family, including her partner, brother, and sisters, she recognizes her limits and the importance of protecting her mental health.
