Trigger Warning: This article contains references to suicide.

Actress Alice Kaushik is currently seen in Salman Khan-led show, Bigg Boss 18. Her friendship with Eisha Singh and Avinash Mishra in the show has been receiving love from fans. In the latest episode, the actress was seen spending time with co-contestant Nyrraa Banerji, during which Alice recalled the heartbreaking moment when she received her father's suicide news. 

In a conversation with Nyrraa Banerji, Alice Kaushik recalled, "Mom and Dad never bonded well. They used to have extremely major fights. Even though my dad was a little violent, I was close to my dad more. I was close to him because he understood my emotions."

When Nyrraa Banerji questioned Alice whether her dad was ever violent to her, the latter admitted her dad and mom both were violent to her. She added, "It was in his nature to be violent. We grew up with that. For the longest, this was normal for us."

Later, recalling how she received her father's suicide news in 2016, Alice remembered her mother asking to call her father. She mentioned that when she called her dad, an unknown person answered the phone. She stated that the person asked her with whom she wanted to talk, and when she retorted, the one on the other side of the phone informed her that her dad was no more.

Alice revealed how she got frustrated with that person and asked him to give the phone to her father. However, her world turned upside down when that person informed her about her father's suicide. She explained that the person who answered the call was a cop, and he informed her that they barged into her dad's apartment and her father had died by suicide. 

While Alice was numb and speechless as she shared this incident, the Bigg Boss 18 contestant further revealed how she was in disbelief to hear this heartbreaking news. Alice continued, "I didn't believe that at first. I told them, 'This is a very bad joke.' I shouted at him. The cop sent me a photo on WhatsApp."

Revealing how she dealt with this heartbreaking incident, the Pandya Store actress mentioned that she couldn't forget the image of her dad for 4 years. Despite living her life, Alice shared that the image was not getting erased from her mind.

She even recalled the time when her dad was brought in the ambulance for cremation and a person did something very wrong, due to which she was traumatized. 

When Nyrraa asked Alice where her mother was during this incident, the latter shared that she was there and was not interested much in the incident as she was already married to someone. Talking about her mom's second husband, Alice disclosed, "He was not a very good person."

For the uninformed, Alice's mother passed away in 2023. Nyraa, who was unaware of this fact, asked Alice whether her mom was still with that person, and the latter nodded "no" continuously without uttering a word. Recalling that phase, Alice added, "I had to move out. I was kind of asked to go out because mom was influenced by her husband."

Before stepping inside Bigg Boss 18 House, Alice was declared a finalist of the season along with Vivian Dsena. After seeing how the actress has bravely dealt with her past traumas, Salman Khan mentioned that her chances to win Bigg Boss 18 are 100 percent.
