Sidharth checks all prerequisites for being a Bigg Boss contestant, one of them being a controversial personality. Shukla has been controversy's favourite child since a while now. In 2014, he was caught drunk driving on the New Year's Eve and in 2018, he was booked for rash driving after he hit his BMW car into three vehicles and rammed it onto a divider. Not just this, Shukla has also been known to have had tiffs with his co-stars. Actor Kunal Verma had openly criticised Sidharth Shukla for his bad behaviour on the sets of Dil Se Dil Tak and said that the actor indulged in abusive behaviour on the sets. The actor is also known to have delayed shoots thanks to his tantrums and created a ruckus on sets.

Looks like Bigg Boss 13 is going to be an exciting affair with Shukla in it. Will the actor get into fights with his co-contestants from the start? Are we to see any romance between him and Aarti? Well, only time will tell. Don't forget to tune in to catch Salman introduce all the contestants on the show on September 29 on Colours TV.
