Television actress and Bigg Boss 20 contestant
“Bigg Boss has been the highest-rated show over the years. I love watching it. Doing this show is like a jeevandan for me. I have been saying no to the show for years now. Every year there would be rumors, but this year, the time was right. This time, I don’t know what made me say yes. I don’t want to think too much and just want to go with the flow.”

“Jay is an emotional person, and Tara was very small when he entered the show. He was missing her moments growing up, which are very precious. Now Tara has grown; she is independent. She has Jay, my parents, her uncle Manoj, and her siblings, so she will cope. She is a very strong child.”
