Exclusive: Bigg Boss 16’s Shiv Thakare Remembers Sidharth Shukla, Has THIS To Say About The Late BB Contestant

Bigg Boss 16 has come to an end and while Shiv Thakare has emerged as the first runner up on the show, he has been all over the headlines ever since his stint on the popular reality show. The audience has been all gaga over his game in the show and many touted him to be the real winner of Bigg Boss 16. And while Shiv has been all over the headlines these days, he made heads turn as he remembered Sidharth Shukla in one of his interviews.

This happened during an exclusive interview with Filmibeat wherein Shiv was quizzed about his favourite Bigg Boss. To this, he was quick to respond and named Sidharth Shukla as his favourite contestant. For the uninitiated, Sidharth Shukla had won Bigg Boss season 13 and his game had left everyone in awe. To note, this isn't the first time Shiv has mentioned about Sidharth Shukla. Earlier, Shiv received flak from the audience after he asked Priyanka Chahar Choudhary not to copy Sidharth Shukla during their argument on Bigg Boss 16 which didn't go down well with the late actor's fans.

Meanwhile, talking about the work front, Shiv will reportedly be seen making his big Bollywood debut with Salman Khan's upcoming movie. Besides, there are reports that Shiv will be seen participating in Rohit Shetty's Khatron Ke Khiladi 13. However, an official announcement is yet to be made in this regard. On the other hand, Shiv will also be reportedly collaborating with his BFF Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia for a music video.

Interestingly, Shiv, who received a warm welcome in his home town Amravati post the Bigg Boss 16 grand finale, got a sweet surprise from an air hostess in a flight as well. He got a handwritten note which read as, "I appreciate you, I respect you, I am happy to meet you again very excited to see you once again. 'Aai shapat',. Lots of love me and also a big fan, my mom. We love you. Shiv Manoharrao Uttam Rao Zinguji Ganuji Thakare".
