Rashami Desai on bagging the show Dil Se Dil Tak
It was during this time that she got the show Dil Se Dil Taak. Talking about her journey on the show, she said, "Wo show ki journey bhi bohot interesting rahi aur usse jitne bhi kamayi aayi, usse meine apna future secure kiya. But future secure karna is not the only thing you could do. Mujhe un cheezon ko utilize karne nahi aaya. Jitna paise aaye the, mujhe itna pata tha mujhe loans aur debt clear karna hain. But future banane ke liye steps hota hain, like Plan A, Plan B, wo mujhe aata hi nahi."
"(At that time, I got a show called "Dil Se Dil Tak." The journey of that show was very interesting, and with whatever earnings I made from it, I secured my future. But securing the future is not the only thing you can do. I didn't know how to utilize those things. As much money as I made, I only knew that I had to clear my loans and debts. But to build a future, there are steps, like Plan A, Plan B, which I didn't know.)"
Paras interrupts and asks if she is talking about investments. She agrees and says her mother was a simple government teacher, and she did her best with whatever knowledge she had. But Rashami, when going through her difficulties, blacked her and also her brother. She was only focused on working, making money, and securing her future. She also bought a house, and during the rat race, she fell sick. It was at this time that she decided to do Bigg Boss.
“Mere paas koi choice nahi thi, Bigg Boss kar leti hu, paisa mil jayega, phir mein ghar baith jayungi, bas, (I had no choice, so I decided to do Bigg Boss. I would get money, then I would sit at home, that's it.)” added Desai. She also reveals that she was the highest-paid contestant of the season.

Rashami continued speaking about the loan and how much difficulty she had to go through as her show stopped suddenly. Recalling those days, she said, "4 din mein road pe thi, mere paas Audi A6 thi, jisme hum sote the. Mere manager ke paas mere ghar ke sara saman rakha huya tha. Mere parivaar se mein ekdam alag ho gayi thi. (In just 4 days, I was on the road. I had an Audi A6, which I used to sleep in. My manager had kept all my belongings. I had become completely separated from my family.)"
The actress also says that she used to eat the food that rickshaw pullers used to buy for twenty rupees. However, in these four days, she realized that she never prioritized herself. She learned a lot of life lessons during this time.
This was when she got divorced, her friends didn't understand her, and her family never supported her decisions. She mentioned that she got Dil Se Dil Tak through a close colleague. "Phir meine apni loan complete kii, shows karti thi, mein soti nahi thi, bahar kuch nahi dikhati thi, par andar tanau se bhari thi, mein sochti thi yaar kya life hain ye, isse achha toh mar jau, (Then I completed my loan repayments, did shows, didn't sleep, and showed nothing on the outside, but inside I was full of stress. I used to think, what kind of life is this? It would be better to die.)" added the Bigg Boss 13 contestant.
