Jiya Shankar's journey in 'Bigg Boss OTT 2' has reached its conclusion as she exited the reality show before the much-anticipated grand finale. With Jiya bidding adieu to 'BB OTT 2', the final lineup of the top five contestants was solidified.

Jiya Shankar Opens Up About Her Relationship With Father
In her final episode before being eliminated from 'Bigg Boss OTT 2,' she shared her thoughts about her father during a conversation with Elvish Yadav in the garden area. When Elvish inquired about her relationship with her dad, she responded, "No, we haven't spoken to each other. I don't even know where he is, what does he look like, or have heard his voice. I haven't spoken to him in the last 20 years and there is no contact. He has another daughter from his second marriage. He has a wife and a daughter. He has moved on in life. Why will he bother about us now?"
Jiya conveyed that her father never made an effort to inquire about their well-being when they were younger, and now, it's inconsequential as they have faced challenges and managed fine on their own.
