Talking about winning Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 11, Manisha said, “I feel very happy. I still cannot believe that the trophy is in my hand. It is like a dream come true.” Commenting on the feat of a wildcard winning the show for the first time, Manisha added, “Earlier I used to think that since I came in as a wild card, I might not win. People are skeptical about coming as wild cards because 90 per cent of the time they don’t win as they don’t get the time to prove themselves. By the time we join the show, half the season has passed, and people have made their mark already. But if in little time you can do what others were not able to do from the start, then you can win. Hard work is the key. I experimented with various dance forms in my journey, and I got very little time to prove myself, but I am glad I did.”
Manisha also recalled how on several occasions she felt like giving up. “I have thought of giving up many times on this Jhalak journey, I felt I couldn’t do it, but then that hunger to win the trophy kept me going.”
