New Delhi, Oct 26 (IANS): Actress Roopal Tyagi, who was the first celebrity to enter the "Bigg Boss Nau" house along with partner Digangana Suryavanshi, got eliminated from the controversial reality show on Sunday. She says it was a "wonderful experience" despite being tough.

"'Bigg Boss' was a wonderful experience and I enjoyed every bit of it. Staying without my crucial needs inside the house was extremely difficult, and I am happy that I could overcome that.
