Paras Chhabra on Bigg Boss 13 contestants not getting enough work
After appearing in Bigg Boss, contestants usually get a lot of work offers for different shows across mediums, however, the same didn't happen with the celebrities of Bigg Boss 13. In his recent podcast with Arti Singh, Paras Chhabra highlighted the same. Paras said, "Hum kaam kar rahe hai ya nahi kar rahe hai par TV pe hum dikh rahe hai. (Even though we aren't working, we are on TV)."
Arti added, "But touchwood everybody is doing well, sab acha kar rahe hai." Paras shared his difference of opinion and told her that the contestants of their season aren't doing well for themselves.
Take a look at a glimpse of Paras Chhabra's podcast with Arti Singh here:
Paras Chhabra said, "Bas yeh COVID nahi aata toh hum bahot kuch kar rahe hote. Humare paas bahot ache ache shows hote. Jaise tu abhi dekh season 14 aaya hai 15 aaya hai, 16 aaya hai inke saare contestants ko back to back kaam mile hai TV pe. Woh log dikh rahe hai. Aur hum kyu nahi dikh paaye, kyuki COVID aagaya."
(I think if there was no COVID, we would've been doing pretty well. We would have got a lot of good shows. Like contestants from Bigg Boss 14, 15, and 16 are getting work back to back on TV. They are still seen. We couldn't do the same because of COVID.)"
Arti Singh added that Paras still did music videos and earned money but he mentioned that he wants to do web and other TV shows. Arti added that she would like to take up shows like Khatron Ke Khiladi or Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa.
