Mumbai: Popular telly-bahu Devoleena Bhattacharjee has turned ‘Bigg Boss’ contestant this year. Widely known as ‘Gopi bahu’ to couch potatoes, Devoleena Bhattacharjee reveals she is nervous and excited, and at the same time optimistic about having a pleasant experience on the show.
“I don’t know what will happen in the house over the coming weeks, or how the situation will unfold for me, but I am prepared for everything. I don’t think it will be an easy journey. Hopefully, I will enjoy the stay and it will be a completely different experience. I am sure I will cherish this,” Devoleena told this agency.
Right now, Devoleena is unable to contain her excitement because Bigg Boss will give her a chance to spend time with her favourite star Salman Khan. “I am very excited! I’ll be meeting Salman Khan! I have met him once during the shoot of Saath Nibhaana Saathiya and we had clicked a picture. But this is going to be special. I not only get to meet him, I also get to spend some time with him. I get to talk to him every week. These are the special moments I am going to cherish,” gushed Devoleena.
The Saath Nibhaana Saathiya actor also explained why she chose to become a contestant on ‘Bigg Boss season 13.
“I like challenges in life. I think right now on TV, if there is something that can challenge me, it is Bigg Boss. I don’t like to be caged in personal life. I can’t be at home for two consecutive days, and I am caging myself for three months with strangers, who will probably become my friends in the course of time! But locking yourself in a house with strangers is a difficult task. It is challenging, too. So, I thought okay let’s do it,” Devoleena Bhattacharjee said.
Although Devoleena finds it challenging to stay with strangers inside the house, adjustment is not a big problem, she insists, because she is friendly by nature. “I make friends easily. I adjust well with people wherever I go. I don’t know what will happen inside the house or how I’ll adjust – whether I will make friends or not. But I will try to remain the way I am. I believe in honesty,” Devoleena said.
Devoleena revealed being slightly upset about missing Durga puja and Diwali celebrations with her family because she will be inside the house. However, what the actress is going to miss the most is her pet dog Angel.
