The grand finale of Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 on September 29 was packed with thrills, but the biggest surprise of the night came when Nia Sharma was announced as the first confirmed contestant for Bigg Boss 18. Host Rohit Shetty made the exciting revelation during the star-studded event, which featured appearances by Alia Bhatt, Bharti Singh, Kashmera Shah, and Nia herself. While Karan Veer Mehra took home the title and the prize money of Rs 20 lakh, it was Nia’s news that stole the spotlight.
For years, Nia has been offered a spot on Bigg Boss, but the actress has always turned it down until now. Known for her bold personality and her roles in Suhaagan Chudail and previous stints on reality shows like Khatron Ke Khiladi 8 and Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9, Nia’s entry into Bigg Boss 18 has fans buzzing with excitement.
Although Nia looked slightly nervous following the announcement, she was warmly encouraged by her Khatron Ke Khiladi co-contestant Abhishek Kumar, who assured her of his full support, promising to vote for her. This isn’t Nia’s first brush with the Bigg Boss house, as she previously entered the Bigg Boss OTT house as a guest for a day, leaving a lasting impression on the audience.
With Bigg Boss 18 premiering on October 6, fans are eagerly awaiting Nia’s journey in the controversial reality show, hosted by Salman Khan.
