New Delhi: The anticipation is building for ‘Bigg Boss 18’, as Salman Khan's highly acclaimed reality show is all set to return. In the meantime, let's take a moment to remember Cyrus Broacha, who brought endless entertainment to ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’. The VJ once shared a hilarious incident happened during the show's first Weekend Ka Vaar episode, which was hosted by Salman Khan.
After his ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’ stint, Cyrus Broacha discussed the difficulties of living in the Bigg Boss house on his podcast, where he said that he had trouble sleeping and would frequently wake up around 4:30 in the morning.
According to Cyrus, he "passed out" during the first eviction episode when Salman was giving a harsh lecture to another contender. Cyrus said, “It was the first eviction, and Salman was giving a serious lecture to someone. I was so tired that I started nodding off. Suddenly, Salman noticed and began laughing—he had never seen a contestant fall asleep while he was talking! Usually, everyone else is all ‘Salman Bhai,’ and there I was, napping.”
Despite the awkward incident, Cyrus lauded Salman Khan's humour and generosity. Cyrus also added that Salman was "very sweet" to him during their time together on the show.
Salman Khan even delivered eggs to Cyrus Broacha in the Bigg Boss house as a kind gesture. "He sent me eggs, but five minutes later, they told me to leave because of an issue with my son. After I exited, Pooja Bhatt's father, Mahesh Bhatt, called to check on her. Apparently, as soon as I left, all the contestants went for the eggs, which upset Pooja. She was like, Where's the emotion?”Cyrus shared.
For the unversed, Cyrus Broacha had to leave ‘Bigg Boss OTT 2’ house owing to a family emergency.
