Last year, Sanjay Nirupam made history by becoming the first politician to participate in Bigg Boss 2. It seems other leaders of the country are taking cue from Nirupam. Controversial BJP leader Varun Gandhi is now tipped be part of the upcoming third season. Shakti Kapoor and item girl Poonam Jawhar are said to be in the fray too.
As per media reports, Gandhi has been approached by Colors and Endemol India to participate in
Bigg Boss 3. However, Gandhi’s aide rubbished the news.
We called at Varun’s residence where an aide denied that Varun was made any offer. “Since last evening, the media is carrying this story but there’s no truth to it. As far as I know, Varun hasn’t been made any offer,” said the aide.
Channels and production officials are simply keeping mum on such reports.
In the last year or so, Gandhi has remained a controversial figure and was booked for making inflammatory speeches at a political rally in Uttar Pradesh. That prompted UP chief minister to file a case against him. Gandhi’s actions let to the Election Commission disqualifying him from contesting Lok Sabha polls.
