Recalling the best memory from Bigg Boss 7, Gauahar expressed, 'The best memory ever could be lifting that trophy at the end of the season, because when you live 104 days locked inside the house, that feeling is unbelievable.'

Forget winning, Gauahar merely becoming a finalist was a big achievement, the trophy added the cherry on the cake. 'First of all, being a finalist is only a huge deal because it is all audience voting. You don't reach the final stage due to your talent, it is because of the amount of love you're being showered by the viewers. So, for me standing there on that stage as a finalist, was a huge high, it was a big deal for me.'

The model-actress further revealed the moment, where she was left stunned due to a celebrity's presence. No, not Salman Khan, but her co-contestant Tanishaa's mother and Bollywood's evergreen star Tanuja ji.

'I saw, Tanuja ji is sitting there during the finale. So for the first time in the entire season, I saw somebody from Tanishaa's family, because I don't think she received a letter or anything like that, and we all used to very sad about that. We all got some messages during the season, but she kinda didn't get, for whatever reasons, and we always used to be like Tanishaa it will all be fine,' Gauhar recalled. 

Gauahar also revealed that she felt she will not lift the trophy but maybe Tanisha would become the winner. 'When I saw her (Tanuja ji), I was like Oh my God, the legend, Tanuja ji is sitting that means maybe, just maybe, I am not winning this."

She explained that thousands of thoughts were going in her mind at that moment, but she calmed down after seeing her mother and family present during the BB 7 finale. 'Then all I could think of, okay I'm here, I am just going to believe that I'm going to win. Then I did not keep any doubt in my mind and kept praying. I was just too happy to see the crowd cheering for me. And all that was happening for the first time with me, as a model or an actor, you don't get that type of cheering happening for you.'
