Dhar confessed that she was anxious to know that this episode was coming but now that it’s over, she feels relieved. “It was a very unique experience to watch it back, to see myself be so vulnerable in that moment where I cared so much,” added the reality star.She expressed her gratitude to the editors for portraying her personality accurately. However, she wishes they had shown a little more of her strategy and the relationships she had formed with the other contestants.
