Anumol On Reports Of Spending Rs 16 Lakh To Win Bigg Boss Malayalam 7

In an interview with Asianet, Anumol addressed the allegations, saying, "Many people are saying that I won this title spending Rs 16 lakh on various PR teams. That's not true. I don't have that kind of money. I was informed about this PR aspect just before entering the show. I was told that everyone who participates in Bigg Boss has PR support. So, I got a bit scared as I had never thought of that." She further said, "So I got the contact of one such PR person and asked them the price. They told me Rs 15 lakh. But I didn't choose that and went for the Rs 1 lakh option. I paid Rs 50,000 as an advance, and the rest 50,000 I will be paying now since I won the title. I have no idea who started this story about the Rs 16 lakh PR payment. This is the only truth."

Anumol also spoke about the difficulties faced inside the Bigg Boss house. "I really worked hard for this trophy. I have suffered so much in that house. Bigg Boss is always watching me, right? I have no issue admitting that I do have PR assistance, like every other contestant on the show. But I don't have Rs 15 or 16 lakh in my hand to pay for a PR campaign. If that was the case, I would not have even come to participate in this program."
