The highly anticipated 18th season of the controversial reality show ‘Bigg Boss’ is set to premiere soon on Colors, following the conclusion of ‘Bigg Boss OTT 3’. Rumors have been swirling about numerous celebrities potentially joining the cast, including Somy Ali, the former girlfriend of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. As speculation intensifies, Somy has publicly addressed these rumors, putting them to rest.
Somy Ali Dismisses Participation Rumors
Recent reports suggested that Somy Ali was approached by the makers to participate in ‘Bigg Boss 18’. However, she has categorically denied these claims. In a conversation with IANS, she stated, “I cannot be a part of a show that has a long duration. While I respect the show, I haven’t seen a single episode, so I don’t know what happens in it.” Her comments indicate a clear disinterest in the format and nature of the show.
Scripted Reality Shows: Somy’s Stance
Further expressing her distaste for reality television, Somy mentioned, “I’ve heard that the entire show is scripted. I would prefer to be part of something that isn’t scripted. So even if I were invited, I wouldn’t want to participate. I believe these are mere rumors used as a strategy to boost the show’s ratings, which networks often resort to.” Her remarks reflect a critical view of the reality TV genre, especially shows that manipulate narratives for entertainment value.
Unveiling the Past: Salman Khan and Somy Ali
Somy Ali and Salman Khan were in a relationship that reportedly lasted between six to seven years. Their romance drew considerable media attention during the 90s, but ultimately ended with the emergence of Khan’s romance with actress Aishwarya Rai. Somy’s acting career, although brief, saw her featured in around ten films, predominantly in leading roles, though none achieved significant success at the box office.
