Jain
to

ISHA
MALVIYA
OUT
OF
BIGG
BOSS
17?
While
gossip
mills
suggested
that
Priyanka
Chahar
Choudhary's
Udaariyaan
co-star
Isha
Malviya
is
the
first
confirmed
Bigg
Boss
17
contestant,
the
actress
has
denied
the
rumours
after
confirming
her
entry
in
Salman
Khan's
show.
Speculations
are
rife
that
Isha
is
no
longer
a
part
of
the
show
and
the
makers
have
replaced
her
with
another
popular
actress.
The
TV
diva,
who
shot
to
fame
with
Guddan-Naam
Toh
Suna
Hoga,
is
known
for
her
stylish
looks
on
Instagram.
KANIKA
MANN
TO
PARTICIPATE
IN
BIGG
BOSS
17?
We
are
talking
about
Kanika
Mann,
who
is
close
friends
with
Priyanka
Chahar
Choudhary.
The
Khatron
Ke
Khiladi
12
star
has
already
shown
her
personality
in
Rohit
Shetty's
show
and
it
would
be
interesting
to
see
her
in
Bigg
Boss
16,
if
she
accepts
the
offer.
A
source
close
to
the
show
exclusively
told
Filmibeat,
"Yes,
Kanika
Mann
has
been
approached
for
Bigg
Boss
17.
She
has
not
accepted
the
offer
yet.
Unlike
other
seasons,
Bigg
Boss
17
will
telecast
from
October
20,
in
the
last
leg
of
the
month.
There's
still
time
for
the
show
and
the
makers
are
leaving
no
stone
unturned
to
introduce
the
best
contestants
possible."
Bigg
Boss
17
will
replace
DharamPatnii
and
Khatron
Ke
Khiladi
13
on
Colors
channel
from
October.
