While the reality show ;'Bigg Boss 18' is known for favouring winners who are outspoken or aggressive, Nyra aims to play a fair game and win through compassion.

Regarding her strategy, she stated, “There’s no assurance that any strategies will succeed or come to fruition. That’s why I think it’s better to enter without a specific plan. In the moment, your mindset and awareness will guide you toward the right decisions and actions. That’s what I believe.”

When asked about what she would say to show host Salman Khan, the actress replied, “I won’t be asking questions; instead, I will tell him that this is our second meeting. I’ll remind him of our first encounter many years ago when he was filming ‘Dabangg’ and I was working on ‘Kamal Dabangg Malamal’. I’ll also share that I felt quite shy back then, which is why I couldn’t speak to him much. But now that he’s the host, I feel fortunate that the universe has given me this opportunity to converse with him, and I’m truly grateful to have a host like him.”
