Veteran
actor
Shankar
Ashwath
became
the
fifth
contestant
to
get
evicted
from
Bigg
Boss
Kannada
8.
He
ended
his
journey
on
the
show
over
the
last
weekend
after
spending
35
days
in
the
glasshouse.
Shankar
recently
opened
up
about
his
eviction
and
journey
on
the
show
in
an
interview
with
TOI.
He
shared,
“I
agreed
to
be
part
of
the
show
as
it
offers
a
great
platform
to
show
who
we
are
to
the
people.
But
in
the
house,
I
realised
it’s
a
different
ball
game.
Initially,
I
was
excited
to
perform
tasks
with
younger
people
who
are
always
buzzing
with
energy.
Later,
anxiety
and
uncertainties
crept
up
when
I
got
to
know
the
true
nature
of
co-contestants.
I
knew
for
a
while
that
my
journey
on
the
show
would
come
to
an
end
soon.”
On
being
quizzed
about
why
he
nominated
Nidhi
Subbaiah,
Shankar
takes
a
dig
at
the
actress
for
her
comments
during
a
swimming
pool
task.
He
said,
“What
she
said
is
unacceptable.
She
should
have
realised
that
she
is
speaking
to
the
son
of
a
renowned
actor
who
is
following
in
his
father’s
footsteps.
This
is
also
why
I
decided
to
nominate
her
for
next
week’s
elimination.”
Shankar
also
thinks
that
no
one
is
being
genuine
inside
the
house
and
are
playing
with
strategies.
He
says
that
everyone
was
busy
with
their
own
groups
and
would
become
silent
in
his
presence.
The
senior
actor
concluded
by
stating
that
he
feels
Manju
Pavagad,
Raghu
Gowda,
Rajeev
Hanu
and
Aravind
KP
have
equal
opportunities
to
win
the
show.
