Actor Ranvir Shorey will be participating in the third season of TV reality show Bigg Boss OTT this year which is going to be hosted by Anil Kapoor. He recently opened up about Anil replacing Salman as the host and said that he would have been happier if Salman hosted it instead.

Speaking to Indian Express, the actor said, “If Salman sir had been hosting the show, it would have made me happier as I have worked with him in the past, and it would have been in my favour as a contestant. But Anil sir is a legend and a very charming person and brings with him a certain hugeness, so I am quite excited but also hoping that he will cut me some slack.”

Ranvir has worked with Salman in films like Ek Tha Tiger (2012) and Tiger 3 (2023).

Ranvir also opened up on his strategy in the show, “I am not the coolest person, I tend to lose my calm over small issues. So, this is going to be a challenge for me. But I am not going under any pressure. Also, limited food is going to be a challenge. But I am hoping they will give us sufficient food that’s needed to survive. I am sure they’re not calling us to starve.”

He added, “I am going to keep telling myself, you’re just going to be here for a month or so, so chill. My strategy is to keep myself busy. Doing household chores, doing exercises, and healing my body”

Bigg Boss OTT 3 started streaming on JioCinema from June 21.
