New Delhi: 'Bigg Boss 16' contestant Shiv Thakare is getting love from the audience for the way he is playing in the Bigg Boss house. He is one of the most popular contestants in the house and one of the top contenders for winning the show. This is not the first reality show that Shiv is part of – he has been a part of Roadies Rising and the winner of Bigg Boss Marathi 2. He fell in love with his co-contestant Veena Jagtap in Bigg Boss Marathi. The two parted ways seven months back.
During a conversation with Sajid Khan and Tina Datta, Shiv spoke about falling in love with Veena and how he has not moved on. He said, “Humara breakup hua tha 7 mahine pehle, par hum move on nahi hue. woh kaam mein busy hogayi par move on nahi hue... Maine apne aap ko promise kiya tha joh kuch pehle reality show mein hua woh aage nahi hoga. Hum dono ne pura ghar hearts se bhar diya tha. Pura Maharashtra mein mera naam lenge toh uska naam pata hai, uska naam lenge toh mera pata hai.Itne romantic cheezein ki thi humne us ghar mein. Main bodybuilder hoon mujhe mere body par tattoos pasand nahi par maine task ke beech mein uska naam tattoo karwaya tha.Yahan cheezein na bahar ki tarah pratical nahi ho sakti especially kaam ko lekar...(We broke up seven months ago but we still haven't moved on. We got busy with work. I promised myself I won't fall in love again on a reality show. We had filled the entire BB Marathi house with hearts and had done so many romantic things for each other. The entire Maharashtra knows us by each other's names. I am into fitness and I don't like to get tattoos done on my body, but when I was asked to get her name inked during a task, I did it. You can’t be practical inside the house like the outer world.)”
There are also reports of Veena entering ‘Bigg Boss 16’ as a wild card contestant, though nothing is confirmed yet.
Meanwhile, Sreejita De, who was the first contestant to be evicted from the Bigg Boss house, is back as a wild card entry. Jhansi Ki Rani actor Vikkas Manaktala is also entering as the second wild card entry in the house.
