But now some viewers have called Manisha out for "overdoing" the flirting on the show in a bid to gain attention.
When the dancer first rocked up to the Bigg Boss house, she was first seen flirting with Jad Hadid - before moving swiftly onto YouTuber Elvish.
But after leaving the show, Manisha has hit back at critics by saying her flirtatious behaviour was "all to have fun and not offend anyone".
"I know my limits and whatever was happening, it was all in fun," she told the Indian Express.

"I have never crossed my boundary with anyone. I would just tease Elvish as he’s a shy guy and it was fun to see him getting rattled," she added.
Defending her flirtatious nature while on the show, Manisha claimed that she was always vocal about her actions and she would always tease the men in a "healthy way".
"Also, I am someone who cracks jokes with everyone around them, that’s who I am. I don’t think my character can be defined by these incidents as my intention was always to make people laugh," she added.
But despite the backlash for her romancing, Manish admitted that it felt like a "dream" earning the title as the second runner up on Bigg Boss.

She said she feels as if she's made her hometown proud as girl who has gone so far.
While in the house, however, fans had their eye on a potential relationship brewing between Manisha and Abhishek Malhan - who appeared to share a bond with Jiya Shankar.
But Manisha swept away the idea by revealing that they were just "best friends".
“Firstly, he is so tall, how would he even romance me? But we really had a pure bond and our friendship was more special than a love story,” she said on the matter.
After Bigg Boss OTT 2, Manisha Rani shared that if the audience wants to see her again, she would happily sign up for the next season.
