New Delhi: After a lackluster season 12, the makers of ‘Bigg Boss’ are gearing up to launch a new season on Colors TV. ‘Bigg Boss 12’ was won by popular TV actress Dipika Kakar, who is currently seen in ‘Kahaan Hum Kahaan Tum’ opposite Karan V Grover.

Yesterday, we informed you that casting team at Endemol has approached Pooja Gor to participate in ‘Bigg Boss 13’. The ‘Pratigya’ actress has reportedly replaced Devoleena Bhattacharjee in the controversial reality show. The ‘Saath Nibhana Saathiya’ fame actress was earlier supposed to do ‘BB 12’ but she changed her mind after she got a film offer.

As per the latest buzz, the makers of the show have approached another popular TV actor. We are talking about Sidharth Shukla.

A report in an entertainment portal has suggested that the handsome actor is in talks with the makers.

The makers are pushing him to sign the contract and Siddharth Shukla has finally agreed to participate in ‘BB 13’, the report in SpotboyE said.

Sidharth Shukla made headlines last year when he was arrested for a car crash. The actor got bail later after paying a penalty of Rs 5000, as per a report in ANI.

On the professional front, Sidharth was last seen playing the lead role in ‘Dil Se Dil Tak’ opposite Rashami Desai and Jasmin Bhasin. He was later replaced by Rohan Gandotra in the show. Sidharth got into a fight with his ‘Dil Se Dil Tak’ co-star Kunal Verma and the former openly criticized his behavior.


Sidharth made his TV debut with ‘Babul Ka Aangan Chootey Na; but it was his role of Shivraj in Colors TV’s ‘Balika Vadhu’, which shot him to fame. He made his Bollywood debut with Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt’s ‘Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania’.


‘Bigg Boss 13’ won’t be Sidharth’s first stint with reality TV. The ‘Love U Zindagi’ actor has won ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi 7’ in the year 2016. He had also participated in ‘Jhalak Dikh Laja 6’.
