‘The country has become like Bigg Boss'
GLOBAL MOVIE MAGAZINE|November 2020
‘One cannot deny that the show is tempting. It gives you a lot of fame for whatever time it may be.’
‘The country has become like Bigg Boss'

‘If you are smart, you can stretch it for more than a year.’

‘It gives you the kind of fame that movies or other television projects don’t give.’

‘Of course, the money is also great, even more if you win the show.’

Kavita Kaushik enters Bigg Boss 14 as a wild card contestant, and she’s made an impact immediately.

The actress has already become the captain of the house!

So what does she think of the show so far?

“Eijaz Khan and Pavitra Punia are behaving like Sidharth Shukla and Asim Riaz. Those two boys would come so close while fighting that I always feared that they don’t end up kissing each other! But in this season, while watching Eijaz and Pavithra, I was wishing that they kiss each other and we would get something interesting to watch,”

What made you say yes to Bigg Boss 14?

I have been offered Bigg Boss from season 1.

Chaudha saal ka vanvas katham hua hai meri Bigg Boss kay sath (laughs).

Earlier, I used to think it’s an invasion of privacy, I might get offended if someone says something to me. But now, all that is gone because the country has become like Bigg Boss. You share any opinion on social media, you get attacked.

We are fighting social media trolls anyway.

As an artist, what do we want?

A larger audience. And the entire country watches Bigg Boss as its one of the most popular reality shows across all channels.

It would be ungrateful to say no to this opportunity again.

September is the unsung hero of travel months: The busiest vacation season has come and gone, places are less crowded because kids are back in school, and as a result, prices on airfare, accommodations, and even attractions have dropped. It's the perfect time to pay a visit to locations that are usually swarming with tourists and enjoy some serious natural beauty, luxury hotels, outdoor adventures, and more than a few glasses of wine.
