I hosted a season of 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa.' I was a part of 'Khatron Ke Khiladi.' Also, being in this business, I know what reality TV is about. Please remember it's about entertainment at the end of the day.
My dance was really appreciated in 'Bigg Boss' and Colors TV has approached me for their dance reality show 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa.' I hope to take part in 'Jhalak.'
I had been off TV for seven-eight years, and I took up 'Khatron Ke Khiladi' on an impulse. I wanted to do something adventurous post-40, and 'Jhalak' just happened.
As far as 'Khatron Ke Khiladi' is concerned, I think it's one of the most fairest TV reality shows.
For me, 'Jhalak' was a carry-forward from 'Khatron ke Khiladi.' The channel came to me with this offer, and they were very keen on having me as the host.
I've been on 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa,' and I know it does wonders for your career.
People in Bengal know me because of my stint in 'Bigg Boss,' 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' and the Bollywood flicks.
My decision to participate in 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' was purely for my daughter. I wanted her to be proud of me, and I know I have achieved it.
Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 6' was the turning point in my career.
Everybody has seen me as I am in 'Bigg Boss' and 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa.'
As a host, I did 'Khatron Ke Khiladi,' and it was a learning experience.
People expect comedy from me but I am not just a stand-up comedian anymore. I act on stage, host 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' and also conduct interviews on my show. I have grown as a person and an artiste.
People like me doing comedy, especially after 'Khatron Ke Khiladi,' where they got a glimpse.
Though I participated on 'Khatron Ke Khiladi,' people were laughing at me if I would reach the finale.
There was a task I had done in 'Khatron Ke Khiladi' where I had to put live worms into my mouth as part of the task. It was quite gross.
Whatever work I have done in a very short span of time, like 'Balika Vadhu,' 'Kitchen Champion 4,' 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa,' and 'Bigg Boss 7,' has been great for me.
'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' has helped me shed my inhibitions. Dancing in front of an audience was not easy for me. But I managed it and got progressively comfortable with the audience as the weeks progressed.
