By Girija Narayan
Sreesanth
gave
the
details
about
his
outburst
at
judges
comments
and
elimination
from
Jhalak
Dikhla
Jaa
7,
hinting
his
elimination
was
deliberate
planned,
sort
off,
and
his
argument
with
the
Madhuri
Dixit,
Karan
Johar
and
Remo
Dsouza
was
more
because
of
disappointment
than
anger.
Former
Indian
pacer
Sreesanth
said
his
outburst
on
‘Jhalak
Dikhhla
Jaa'
was
due
to
a
back
injury
and
a
bad
performance
during
the
face-off
which
saw
him
being
eliminated
from
the
dance
reality
show.
The
31-year-old
cricketer,
who
was
in
the
bottom
two
and
was
in
the
face-off
round
with
Puja
Banerjee,
had
an
argument
with
celebrity
judges
Madhuri
Dixit,
Remo
D'Souza
and
Karan
Johar
after
they
pointed
out
flaws
in
his
performance.
"The
outburst
was
more
because
of
the
disappointment
than
anger
as
I
was
doing
extremely
well
on
the
show
during
the
past
six
weeks.
I
think
I
just
had
a
bad
day.
It
was
wrong
timing
and
wrong
choice
of
song," Sreesanth
told
PTI.
He
said
he
could
not
dance
to
his
full
potential
as
he
sustained
an
injury
in
his
back
just
minutes
ahead
of
his
performance.
He
was
also
surprised
that
this
week's
elimination
round
was
shot
first,
which
does
not
happen
normally.
Injured
My
Back
"I
was
in
the
face-off
and
I
had
injured
my
back
badly
and
there
was
a
complete
black
out.
I
was
in
extreme
pain
and
could
not
concentrate.
May
be
if
I
had
got
a
5-minute
break
I
could
have
performed
better.
I
have
to
accept
it
as
the
contract
says
that
you
have
to
leave
when
you
are
eliminated," he
said.
My
Act
First
"In
previous
episodes
the
elimination
round
was
shot
in
the
end.
This
time
the
crew
decided
to
shoot
my
act
first,
which
was
planned
for
later
part
of
the
episode.
I
was
not
prepared
for
this
change
of
plan," he
said.
IPL
Ban
Sreesanth,
who
is
banned
for
life
by
the
BCCI
for
his
alleged
involvement
in
spot-fixing
in
IPL,
said
the
show
has
helped
him
regain
his
lost
self-confidence. "I
found
that
self-confidence
again.
Confidence
Booster
It
was
a
great
confidence
booster
for
me.
I
feel
I
was
good
on
the
show
and
I
had
set
my
own
standard.
I
missed
being
in
a
competitive
scenario
for
past
several
months
and
this
show
gave
me
a
chance
to
compete
again,"
he
said.
Bhuvneshwari
Kumari
Disheartened
Kerela-born
Sreesanth
said
his
wife
Bhuvneshwari
Kumari
is
disheartened
with
his
elimination
as
she
was
expecting
him
to
win
the
show. "She
loved
it
absolutely
but
she
is
disheartened
that
I
could
not
be
on
the
show
till
the
end.
She
would
have
loved
to
see
me
as
the
winner,"
he
said.
Not
Sure
Of
More
Reality
Shows
The
sportsman
said
he
is
not
sure
about
doing
more
reality
shows
and
is
now
looking
forward
to
his
Tamil-Telegu
bilingual
film
‘Anbulla
Azagae',
which
will
go
on
floors
in
October.
Sreesanth
is
also
composing
music
for
the
youth-based
film.
Excited
About
Anbulla
Azagae
"I
am
not
sure
about
doing
other
reality
shows.
But
I
am
excited
about
‘Anbulla
Azagae'.
I
had
thought
that
I
would
be
on
‘Jhalak' till
the
end
so
I
had
asked
the
makers
to
begin
the
film
in
October.
Now,
I
will
just
have
to
wait
for
it
as
the
film
cannot
be
preponed,"
Sreesanth
said.
