/> "You know what, I was never a bad person. So I didn't need to go into Bigg Boss to become a better person. Now that I'm out of the house I'm sorry I ever want."

Amit admits he went for the money. "The experience has taught me a lot. But it was a wrong decision. I wasn't emotionally equipped for this. But I learnt a lot. And now that I'm out of there I'm just too overwhelmed to have my world, my girlfriend Neeru by my side.

Her absence made the whole experience harrowing for me. If she had accompanied me to the House I'd have stayed on for 12 years instead of 12 weeks. I'm madly in love with Neeru, so you can imagine what she must be all about."

Call it a perfect love story, and he brushes the definition away. "Those are only words. No definition can do justice to what I feel for Neeru. I left her behind. And I was missing her. Man, I was miserable inside there without her. If that makes me a weak man, so be it."

Amit has no knowledge about the speculation regarding their relationship. "If I start thinking about what they were writing I wouldn't be able to enjoy my time ahead with Neeru. By now everyone knows how stubborn I am.

Neeru is the woman for me and nothing can change that. Neeru is my family. Her parents and siblings are my family. I'm glad I don't have a family of my own. It gave me a chance to adopt her family as my own. Neeru is squirming when I say this. But I mean it."

He brushes aside the speculation about their secret marriage. "Just because I was inaccessible people wrote anything they want. I was on a reality show. And my feelings were on display. Quite frankly I've nothing to talk about except Neeru, my acting and sports adventure. I've quite sports adventure because my energy was being sapped."

Marriage? "Any time Neeru agrees. Woh manaa kar deti hai. We're both young and have our careers ahead. It'll happen soon."

He's guarded about his reaction to the Bigg Boss inmates. "I don't know if I will meet up with them. How I'll feel about them outside that house remains to be seen. But one thing is for sure. I'll never go on a reality show like Bigg Boss ever again. I've learnt a lot.

Right now, I'm too disoriented to focus on anything except Neeru. Honestly I was only physically present at BiggBoss. Emotionally I was with Neeru...I did Bigg Boss for money. I feel financially securer. But not at the cost of what Neeru and I suffered.

Not that she wasn't in touch with me in there. If she hadsn't been in touch I'd have been dead. But I wanted her with me every day. Now I'm back to being my normal self."
