Though aware that her stay inside the house will not be a cakewalk, she is looking forward to the experience. Considering the reality show thrives on controversy, it won't be long before the subject of her plastic surgery gone wrong, arises. "If a house-mate genuinely wants to know what happened, I will open up, but not if I feel I am being attacked."

Abu Malik

The younger brother of composer Anu Malik, Abu is prepared to field questions about Anu being called out by female singers in the wake of the #MeToo movement last year. "Anu brought fame to the family through his chartbusters. He made the Maliks a brand name. He did well for himself, but I will not shy away from talking about it," he tells mid-day.

Bigg Boss 13 premiered on television on September 29, and has already created a buzz in Indian households. Hardcore Bigg Boss fans can't wait to watch what's new in this season, and how the housemates hold their own through it all.
