When I signed the contract, I told Salman I am doing 'Bigg Boss' in Marathi. He was more than happy and is hopeful I will enjoy doing it.
Though I am scared of host Salman Khan, I don't mind doing 'Bigg Boss 15.'
One night, at 2:30 A. M., I got a call from Salman Khan. And when I answered the call, he asked me if I will host 'Bigg Boss' Marathi. As I was in deep sleep, I don't even know when I said a yes. Also, the next morning, I wasn't sure if it was a dream or reality and eventually I forgot too.
When I got to know 'Bigg Boss' is being made in Marathi, I knew the show would require a host, who has a lot of character. At the back of my mind I knew I would be able to do it but with so many big faces already there in the Marathi industry, I did not know it could come my way.
I finished 'Bigg Boss.' Why should I go on the show again? What is the need for it? If I have to go in the 'Bigg Boss' house, I will go as a guest, exchange pleasantries and leave.
As an individual, I need space and can't be locked in a house with strangers. I would do 'Bigg Boss' if I get to co-host it with Salman Khan.
I have purchased a flat in Malad, but that is not with my 'Bigg Boss' prize. I had bought it with my earnings that were released by producers of 'Bhabhiji Ghar Pe Hain' just before I was offered 'Bigg Boss.'
'Bigg Boss' changed my view of the world. Before I joined the show as its host, I was living in a bubble. I believed the real world is a happy place. 'Bigg Boss' made me realise that the world is made of all kinds of people, including some judgmental ones. It has introduced me to the real world.
Even when I was doing three films a year, I would somehow find two weeks to spend time with my family apart from the regular weekend breaks. But 'Bigg Boss' took up more time than I had expected. On top of it, I also had to shoot for 'Devadas.'
My number one rule in business, and in life, is to enjoy what you do. Running a business involves long hours and hard decisions; if you don't have the passion to keep you going, your business will more than likely fail. If you don't enjoy what you are doing, then you shouldn't be doing it.
I have understood that there is a huge fan following of 'Bigg Boss,' it's a huge platform and everyone in the country connects to it... and all those who go to 'Bigg Boss' and come out, have had positive changes only in their lives.
A lot of people had misconceptions that I throw tantrums and am very arrogant, and I knew 'Bigg Boss' will change that. You cannot pretend for 105 days in front of more than 100 cameras. I know myself, and I was confident that the world will also get to know and understand me through this show.
I am grateful to Bigg Boss' and I will cherish it for rest of my life.
I love and adore Salman Khan. Every year I see him on Bigg Boss' and I just freeze. I'm head over heels with his eyes and smile. He is a very charming personality.
People think that I'm not interested in doing Marathi films, but that's not true. Marathi cinema is very close to my heart.
I'm happy doing what I do. That's ok. Some guy could appear tomorrow and do it much better than me, and so be it, but right now I'm just happy to be who I am doing what I do.
When you ask people about what they enjoy doing, time spent with the boss is even worse than time spent cleaning the house. So this suggests that there are a lot of leaders out there who are not doing an adequate job.
