Pooja Bhatt on Bigg Boss, Stardom, Sobriety, Family, Comebacks and Life in Cinema | Cyrus Says
Welcome to Cyrus Says!
In this episode, Cyrus sits down with Pooja Bhatt for a candid, funny, and deeply personal conversation that moves from their unforgettable Bigg Boss journey to her life in cinema, family, fame, failure, reinvention, and survival. What begins as a nostalgic look back at shared bathroom duties, food fights, sleep deprivation, and the madness of reality TV slowly opens up into a much bigger conversation about what it really means to endure pressure in public and still keep your sense of self.
Pooja speaks with rare honesty about growing up in the Bhatt household, being pushed into acting at 17, saying no to Aashiqui, finding her own path with films like 'Daddy', 'Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahin', 'Tamanna', and 'Zakhm', and eventually stepping away from acting for over two decades before making a comeback on her own terms. She also opens up about ageing, menopause, addiction, sobriety, showbiz, marriage, tattoos, survival, and why stardom was never the goal, but substance always was.
This is a warm, unfiltered, and surprisingly moving episode about resilience, reinvention, and not taking yourself too seriously while living through extraordinary chapters of life.
