Uorfi Javed on not `making it` in the industry
She expressed disappointment that her journey has not shaped up as she expected, and said that she still does not feel like she has truly “made it” in the industry.
Speaking about Follow Kar Lo Yaar, she penned, “Now, this was my reality show, something which I dreamt of, something which I wanted more than my life. I can never forget the day I got the call from smitalshintre saying the show is finally happening. I gave my 500 percent to this show, I thought it will change my life and it did. Not because of the fame or validation but because of the people I met through the show. The entire team, who I still talk to, who I call my closest friends. I remember losing my hair, weight, sleep, everything before the show.”
She wrote that after emerging as the winner of The Traitors India, she believed her life would transform again with fame and money and she would have no worries left. “Then I got this show – I thought winning this show will change my life (when I talk about change my life I mean blind fame and money), I thought after this show I will be a household name, I will never have to worry a single day in my life, everything will be sorted. That didn`t happen but I still won. I had never won anything in my life. This was a crazy experience.”
Uorfi on receiving threats from politicians
Uorfi Javed mentioned that she has been abused and even received threats from politicians, normal people and people from the industry, prompting her to visit the police station numerous times.
“I`ve been subjected to the harshest of trolling and abuses. Politicians, normal people, industry people, I`ve been abused, trolled, given threats. I`ve gone to the police station so many times. I still feel I haven`t reached my full potential. I still keep asking universe mera time kab aayega? With every step I took I just wanted to be accepted by the people, appreciated. I chose a very very unconventional and difficult way for myself. The world wasn`t kind to me. There was a time I used to cry when someone complimented me cause I was only used to the abuses. I`m still waiting for that one moment, one opportunity.”
