Mann admitted that the idea of being locked inside a Bigg Boss 20 house initially made her apprehensive. “I was always scared of captive reality shows,” she said. However, something she read this year made her reconsider the fear. “When you are scared of something, either that fear goes away or that opportunity goes away from you. So, I thought that when the opportunity goes away, it is a loss.”
