I have been following Bigg Boss every year- Praneet Bhatt

Mahabharat's antagonist Shakuni Mama aka Praneet Bhatt has boarded the flight of the much hyped show Bigg Boss 8. The talented actor is all set to get locked up in the house. In a chat with TellyBuzz, he talks about his motto to enter the house, one thing which he will carry and more...

Here is Praneet sharing his excitement -

You have gained immense popularity from your last show Mahabharat so what made you take up such a controversial show?

I have two main reasons for taking up this show Bigg Boss 8 - One is for Salman Khan as I am big fan of him but never got an opportunity to meet him so through this show I can connect with him and learn things from him. Another main reason is I love watching Bigg Boss. I have been following it every year and I wanted to be a part of such a unique show.

Are you scared of Salman Khan who is quite particular in pointing out mistakes?

I feel this is my early stage of acting and it would be great if I am pointed for my mistakes. I am here to learn lot of things from him so would rather appreciate his talks rather being scared about it.

You have played a negative character in Maharabharat so will you continue being negative in Bigg Boss or the audience will get to see your positive side?

I am coming in Bigg Boss as Praneet Bhatt who I am in my real life. Talking about the negative side of Shakuni Mama it is not that I have formed a negative image it was through that character. I have huge fan following amongst kids and senior citizens so how the person can have negative image if their fan following are amongst kids and senior citizens. It was rather more entertaining character I would say.

What will be your strategy in the Bigg Boss house?

I won't be having any tricks to play in the house as according to me the reality will come out in some or the other way. So I will be real and my main motto is to meet everyone and enjoy with them.

One thing that you are taking along with you in the Bigg Boss house?

Its just my clothes as I have carried chess board with me but they are not allowing me to take it in the house.

One thing that you will miss in the house?

I have a habit of watching movies and I watch it regularly at least one movie in a day and that is the only time my mouth keeps shut (smiles) else I am very much talkative in nature.

Lastly any message you would like to give to your fans?

All my friends, guide, followers and mere bacho, sansaar ke ghol matol bacho yeh hai big Boss8 dekhte hai kiski lagegi vaat aur kaun niklega super smart.

TellyBuzz wishes Praneet Bhaat good luck in his journey of Bigg Boss 8!
