New Delhi: Popular reality television show 'Bigg Boss' is all set to come up with its next season and the tentative list of contestants is already going viral. Rumour mills have started churning out famous and controversial celebrities' name for the show.
Sometime back, there was a strong rumour that popular television face Nia Sharma might be seen as a participant on the show. However, the actress has refuted such claims and clarified that she is not going to be a part of the show.
Nia told PTI, "I don't know how my name started appearing everywhere but I don't entertain such news." When asked about taking part on "Bigg Boss", Nia told PTI, "I don't know how my name started appearing everywhere but I don't entertain such news."
The actress who ranked No 3 in the Top 50 Sexiest Asian Women List by British-based Eastern Eye newspaper will be seen on another reality show 'Khatron Ke Khiladi'.
"I was very apprehensive to sign the show. I thought I would not survive in the show beyond one or two episodes because I am scared of these things (creepy insects) in real life. But I am so happy the way I performed. I cried before every stunt. It was tough and I used to get scared looking at snakes, crocodiles, but eventually, I did it. I didn't quit," she has been quoted as saying.
Season eight of the show is being hosted by filmmaker Rohit Shetty. "If it weren't for Rohit, it wouldn't have been as much fun performing the stunts. He is somebody who motivates you, you get a boost to perform well. He has been a stunt man so his personal advices are very helpful”, she added.
Nia rose to fame with the shows like "Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai" and "Jamaai Raja".
