After exiting Bigg Boss 19 in its 13th week, actor Kunicka Sadanand is opening up about her journey, her clashes and the labels that followed her inside the house. Branded a “flipper” by housemates — a tag once famously given to Shehnaaz Gill in Season 13 — Kunicka insists her game was never about switching sides, but staying solo.
“I Played Alone. I Never Belonged to Any Group.”
Kunicka maintains that she was one of the few contestants who played without alliances.
“I would sit with everyone, but I was never with anyone,” she says. “This flipper tag is absolutely unwarranted. I made decisions based on fairness, not loyalty.”
She admitted that many people inside the house appreciated her ability to take a stand, while others struggled to make sense of her independent style. For her, inconsistency wasn’t strategy — it was choosing integrity over popularity.
On Amaal Mallik: “A Shaky Ride, But He Was Carrying Emotional Baggage”
Kunicka also addressed her complicated rapport with singer-composer Amaal Mallik, with whom she had multiple arguments.
She describes their dynamic as unstable but empathetic.
“Amaal is a nice, sensitive boy. He entered the show with a lot of hurt and emotional weight,” she shares. “I don’t think he was strategizing. He was just letting out things he’d been holding inside.”
Amaal’s emotional revelations — including harsh statements about his father and uncle Anu Malik — sparked debates online, with some calling it sympathy-seeking. Kunicka disagrees, saying it felt more like catharsis than gameplay.
Kunicka vs Tanya Mittal: “She Plays the Victim Card”
One of the season’s most heated showdowns was Kunicka’s fight with Tanya Mittal, where Kunicka questioned Tanya’s upbringing — a remark that spiraled into a major controversy.
Kunicka now clarifies that her words were “misconstrued.”
“Tanya often plays the victim card. Instead of addressing her hurt with me, she created drama — and then the entire house pounced on me like wolves. That was a very bad time for me.”
She believes Tanya used the conflict strategically:
“She knew exactly when to open that file. It wasn’t emotional — it was calculated. And it worked for her.”
Despite this, Kunicka insists she holds “no angst,” but admits Tanya’s personality wasn’t her cup of tea.
“Tanya Is Materialistic. I Prefer Emotional Conversations.”
Kunicka describes Tanya as someone deeply attached to material possessions — something she found exhausting over time.
“I’m not someone who values materialistic acquisitions. I prefer soulful conversations, something that adds personal growth. I never saw that from her.”
She even referenced an astrologer’s comment inside the house, saying Tanya “uses money as a shield because she felt small growing up.”
“It was emotionally taxing to handle,” Kunicka adds. “But I truly don’t have resentment.”
Final Words
Kunicka’s post-eviction take paints a picture of a contestant who played her game on her own terms — one who clashed hard, stood firm and refused to fit into alliances.
With Bigg Boss 19 heating up every week, her exit only adds more perspective to the shifting relationships, emotional breakdowns and strategic moves inside the house.
