"I have never really planned my career. I have a habit of never saying no to opportunities that come my way. I respect everything that comes my way -- just that I enjoy hosting, acting and being part of reality content. Have a habit of never looking away from work...I won't just limit myself to anything but also take up anything that excites me and interests me," Ridhima told IANS.

Talking about growth and popularity of reality shows as compared to daily soaps, Ridhima said there is no comparison. "Fictional shows give us the opportunity of catering to an audience who are used to having us every single day in their living room. With non-fictional that's not the case it is only weekends. But with Bigg Boss that line gets blurred... they see our 24-hour activity," she added. Bigg Boss OTT is hosted by Karan Johar. It streams on Voot Select.
