Bigg Boss 14: 'Bigg Boss 8' winner Gautam Gulati was supposed to join Sidharth Shukla Hina Khan and Gauahar Khan in the new season of 'Bigg Boss'. Read on to know why he said no to the offer.

New Delhi: The biggest reality show on Indian television is all set to hit the airwaves from next month on Colors channel. We are talking about ‘Bigg Boss 14’. The makers of the show recently held a virtual press conference in which they revealed the first confirmed contestant of ‘Bigg Boss 2020’. Ardent fans of the show are quite excited to see which contestants will get locked inside the ‘BB 14’ house. Former contestants including Sidharth Shukla, Hina Khan and Gauahar Khan featured in special promos of ‘Bigg Boss 14’ in which they said that the show will give a befitting reply to 2020, a year which has been crippled by the COVOD-19 pandemic. The three celebs will also enter the ‘Bigg Boss 14’ as part of different tasks. If a recent report in an entertainment portal is to be believed, Gautam Gulati was also set to join the trio in the show. However, he couldn’t accept the offer as his film’s dates clashed with the show. The ‘Diya Aur Baati Hum’ actor showed his interest but he had to say not to offer due to his tight schedule. Gautam, who lifted the winner’s trophy of ‘Bigg Boss 8’, is considered as one of the most popular contestants of all time in the show’s history. "Gautam Gulati was also offered to be part of Bigg Boss 14. He happens to be one of the most loved and famous contestants of the reality show and the makers were also keen on getting him on board for this season. Although Gautam showed his interest, he had to eventually turn it down, since the show got pushed and the new dates clashed with a film shoot that he's committed to," a source told Pinkvilla. On the professional front, Gautam Gulati will be next seen in Salman Khan starrer ‘Radhe: Your Most Wanted’. The movie also stars Disha Patani and Randeep Hooda.

Talking about ‘Bigg Boss 14’, several celebs including Sara Gurpal, Jasmin Bhasin, Nikki Tamboli have been reportedly confirmed.
