Being a part of the show as a contestant was a little overwhelming and amazing, we discussed it with the family and decided to take up the offer.”

“It (being introduced weeks ahead of the premiere) was surreal actually, because never in the history of Bigg Boss have they disclosed the contestant before the grand premiere. So, being the first in anything sounds great for all the right reasons. I was ecstatic for being given such a grand introduction and post that I met Salman sir and I got to meet Sidharth. It was really, really amazing,” he added. He also told the entertainment portal that apprehensions regarding fights in the house apart, he is not worried with regards to the ongoing pandemic. He told them that the showmakers have taken care of quarantine, social distancing and all safety measures to avoid any spread of the infection.
