Abhishek Bajaj, known for showcasing his acting skills in several films and web series, has now officially stepped into Salman Khan’s much-talked-about reality show, Bigg Boss 19, as one of the contestants. Before making his grand entry into the show — often referred to as the madhouse for its intense drama and unpredictable twists — the charming actor sat down for an exclusive conversation with Zoom/Telly Talk India.
During this candid interaction, Abhishek opened up about his thoughts, emotions, and the deeper reason that motivated him to be a part of this challenging yet exciting journey. He spoke about what made him say “yes” to Bigg Boss 19, how he plans to handle the pressure, and what the audience can expect from him inside the house.
In this exclusive chat, the actor didn’t just discuss his strategy but also reflected on his personal growth, the importance of staying authentic, and his eagerness to connect with viewers on a more personal level through the show.
What are your thoughts about taking part in Bigg Boss 19?
Honestly, I’m feeling both excited and nervous. At this moment, Bigg Boss feels like an emotion. I just hope everything goes smoothly. God bless.
How are you preparing for Salman Khan’s show?
I haven’t made any preparations. How can anyone really prepare for Bigg Boss? It’s an extreme situation. I’ll just try to be the same person I am outside.
Your friends Donal Bisht and Nyrraa Banerji have been part of Bigg Boss before. Did they share any special advice or tips with you on how to survive inside the house?
I didn’t get any tips from former Bigg Boss contestants. I guess I should have asked, since everyone keeps asking me about it.
What is the reason for choosing to participate in Bigg Boss as a contestant?
I’ve never been part of a reality show before. I’ve worked in films, advertisements, and web series — I’ve tried it all. That’s why I chose Bigg Boss, to step into the world of reality television.
Bigg Boss is a show that can either build or ruin a person’s image in society or the entertainment world. Are you feeling nervous before stepping into the madhouse?
I’m really nervous. I just hope everything turns out well. I want to stay as truthful as I can and hold on to my values.
Since Bigg Boss is all about revealing your true self on screen, what do you think are your strengths and weaknesses that will be tested during the show?
My fun side is that I’m very brave. I won’t share my weaknesses because people tend to take advantage of them.
Many times, Salman Khan scolds contestants for their behavior in the house. If he criticizes you, how would you deal with that situation?
He is much older than us, and I have always looked up to him. If he tries to explain something to me, I will understand. Otherwise, I will share my own point of view.
Many contestants have also found love inside the Bigg Boss house. If you met someone special there, would you share your feelings with them?
Honestly, I never really thought about that. But never say never. I’m excited to begin my Bigg Boss journey. I’m not sure about love, but friendship will definitely happen.
