Bigg Boss 19: Anusha Dandekar Clears The Air About Participating In Salman's Show; Says 'It's Not My Thing'

Anusha Dandekar has once again addressed the ongoing rumours about her joining Bigg Boss Season 19. Despite frequent speculation, she clarified that she has never been contacted by the show's producers. Anusha expressed her preference for her current projects and hinted at an upcoming venture.

Every season of Bigg Boss brings its share of drama, surprise evictions, and rumours, including those about Anusha Dandekar's participation. Her name surfaces annually as a potential contestant, but she consistently denies any involvement. "Honestly, I have no idea why my name keeps coming up!" she shared with News18 Showsha.

Bigg Boss Rumours Persist

Anusha finds it puzzling that speculation about her joining Bigg Boss never fades. She stated, "I've made it very clear that I'm never going into that house. I should be getting paid by them for all the free promo I've been giving without ever stepping in!"

When asked if the show's creators had ever reached out to her, Anusha replied with a laugh, "Never. Not even a call. I think they know I'll slip out midway! But really, if they're going to keep using my name for attention, I deserve a cheque at this point."

Personal Choices and Career Focus

Anusha confirmed her decision not to participate in Bigg Boss: "Yup. It's just a personal choice. I think people who do that show are incredibly brave. But, me? Not interested. It's not my thing." She also mentioned being approached for other reality shows like Khatron Ke Khiladi but declined those offers as well.

Despite putting Bigg Boss rumours to rest, Anusha hinted at future projects: "I can't say yet… but you'll see me soon!" Fans can look forward to seeing her in Hunter Season 2 alongside Suniel Shetty, where she takes on an action-packed role.
