The two of them got hitched in October last year in Chandigarh.

Speaking about the host Karan Johar, he said, “My mom and I are huge Bigg Boss fans and wouldn’t miss it for a day. As a viewer, it keeps me hugely entertained with dollops of drama. For decades now, I have always enjoyed hosting shows and now with Bigg Boss OTT… it will surely be Over the Top. It’s my mother’s dream that has come true.

Bigg Boss OTT will undeniably have a lot more sensational and dramatic content. I hope I can live up to the audience’s and my friends’ expectations, make Weekend Ka Vaar with the contestants an enjoyable affair in my own style and up the ante on the entertainment quotient. Wait for it.”

The show will run for 6 weeks on OTT after moving to Television. Speaking about other participants, it is being said that Raqesh Bapat, Neha Marda, Riddhima Pandit and Divya Agarwal have nodded yes to being locked inside the house.
