In an exclusive interview with Zoom,
Hamid revealed why he feels Faisal and Divya will be his competitors on The 50. "I think Faisu will be a tough competition, 100%. I feel he is strong. Divya will be a strong competition. So these people will be there, the rest we will see," he admitted.
The 50 contestant further vowed that he wouldn't 'abuse anyone' on the reality show no matter how much someone instigates him. "Because I have a mother and a sister. So if someone abuses me, I will feel very bad. And especially on national television, where I think you are doing a show and they are not even on the show. So I don't want to drag them. And if the other contestants don't do it, it will be good," Hamid added in Hindi.
Hamid Barkzi on his strength and weakness
Continuing the chat, Hamid revealed what are his strength and weakness. The reality show star said, "I think strength will be that when I come to do something, then I don't see anything. I know that if you have given me a task or something, whatever, then I will make sure that I complete it and then come out of it." As far as his weakness is concerned, Hamid said he can't lie but he doesn't consider it as his weak point. He added that lying helps in reality show sometimes but he can't.
