ꩲ It's been just a few days since the controversial reality show 'Bigg Boss OTT 2' commenced and the contestants seem to be warming up to each other and sharing details about their life.
⛎Filmmaker-actress Pooja Bhatt, who is seen as a contestant in the show, spoke about her battle with alcoholism at the age of 44 and then her journey to sobriety.
🌞Pooja was seen talking to co-contestant Cyrus Broacha and said: "I had a drinking problem, and that's why I acknowledged my addiction and made the decision to quit."
🎐She then spoke about how she was labelled as an "alcoholic" by people and how she tackled that.
🤡Pooja was heard saying that men get the license by the society and hence, freely talk about being "addicted and recovering from alcoholism."
🧜"Women don't openly drink and so they don't openly recover. I used to drink openly so when I thought of recovering from alcoholism I realised that why should I recover in the closet? People used to call me an alcoholic but then I said I'm a recovering alcoholic," she explained.
'Bigg Boss OTT 2' airs on Jio Cinema.
