Sidharth Shukla on coronavirus lockdown: ‘In Bigg Boss 13, we were locked up with strangers but now it’s with loved ones’

Bigg Boss 13 winner Sidharth Shukla is spending quality time with his family during the coronavirus lockdown.

With the entire nation in lockdown mode to control the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, actor Sidharth Shukla has some advice for his fans. “I would like to tell them to spend time with your family, don’t skip your workouts and make the most of being indoors and safe,” he told The Times Of India in an interview.

Sidharth Shukla is currently in self-isolation at home.

Sidharth is no stranger to being confined to a house with no access to the outside world. He recently participated in Bigg Boss 13 and ended up winning the popular reality show. “I have been at home with family. When locked in the Bigg Boss house we were locked up with strangers but this time around it’s with loved ones. It’s great catching up on conversations, helping out mom in the kitchen (something she had always wanted me to do which I can now do, thanks to Bigg Boss) and catching up on shows together,” he shared.

During Bigg Boss 13, Sidharth made headlines for his closeness with Shehnaaz. Fans rooted for them and even gave them a nickname - SidNaaz.

When Bigg Boss 13 ended, Sidharth went on to say that Shehnaaz is just a close friend and that he did not have romantic feelings for her. However, Shehnaaz, who went on to feature in a swayamvar-style reality show titled Mujhse Shaadi Karoge after Bigg Boss 13, has said that she is in love with Sidharth, despite the fact that he does not reciprocate her feelings.
