Recently, in an emotional video, Uorfi Javed reflected on her journey, from being the first contestant evicted from Bigg Boss OTT in 2021 to emerging as the winner of The Traitors in 2025.
Uorfi revealed that her path was far from easy, recalling how she once had to borrow clothes for Bigg Boss, and over the years, faced breakdowns, hate, and threats. Her recent victory, too, was clouded by backlash, with fans of her co-contestants Harsh Gujral and Purav Jha sending her rape threats and abusive messages online.
Additionally, she shared her first Instagram post after winning The Traitors.
Despite it all, Uorfi stood her ground, saying that no amount of hate will ever stop her.

Uorfi shared a video that began with Karan Johar announcing her eviction from Bigg Boss OTT. It then showed her winning moment from The Traitors, where she was seen screaming with joy.
She opened up about her journey in the last few years. "From losing Bigg Boss (being the first one to be eliminated) to winning the traitors. The journey wasn’t easy, how many times I’ve cried, I’ve had so many breakdowns, wanted to give up, wanted to leave everything and run away. Being called names, getting death, rape threats, the online hate, the offline hate but I never stopped. Maybe the universe knew I needed this," she said.
Uorfi revealed that after getting evicted from Bigg Boss, she wondered if she would be able to have a "good life". She added, "When I lost Big Boss, I thought he lost my last chance at success or at having a good life, had taken udhaar (loan) from friends to get clothes to wear on Bigg Boss. At that time, I didn’t even know if I would ever be able to repay that udhaar (loan)."
"People have always doubted me, even right now, but this still won’t stop me. The hate never has, never will stop me. I took out three traitors, that can’t be luck. Till the last moment,t I didn’t give up. Strategised," she concluded.

Social media influencer Uorfi Javedshared her first post on Instagram after winning the reality show, The Traitors.
“When you don’t like something a girl does, just drop the ‘R’ word. Not the first time I’ve been threatened or abused like this but this time it’s not because of my clothes but because I won a show . Imagine being so petty that when your favourite player doesn’t win you resort to abusing and threatening. These are the most decent ones I uploaded,” she wrote in her Instagram post.
She continued, “No matter what I do , people just love hating and abusing . Harsh ko na Nikalti toh Pyar me andhi, harsh ko nikal Diya toh dhokhebaaz. Purav ko Jeetne deti toh bewakoof, nahi jeetne diya toh cheater. Hate has never stopped me before, it never will now.”
