[[{"fid":"15520589","view_mode":"default","fields":{"format":"default","alignment":"","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false},"link_text":null,"type":"media","field_deltas":{"6":{"format":"default","alignment":"","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false}},"attributes":{"height":500,"width":456,"class":"media-element file-default","data-delta":"6"}}]]
Sophie has been offered the show a lot of times but she rejected it because she likes to do shows where one’s talent can be shown rather than mind games, and she is far too emotional to be part of something that so controversial.
7. Poonam Pandey
[[{"fid":"15520629","view_mode":"default","fields":{"format":"default","alignment":"","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false},"link_text":null,"type":"media","field_deltas":{"9":{"format":"default","alignment":"","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false}},"attributes":{"height":500,"width":456,"class":"media-element file-default","data-delta":"9"}}]]
Poonam was also offered Bigg Boss several times but she denied the offer as the pay cheque was too low. She had demanded Rs. 3 crore and the makers didn’t agree to it.
8. Shiney Ahuja
[[{"fid":"15520609","view_mode":"default","fields":{"format":"default","alignment":"","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false},"link_text":null,"type":"media","field_deltas":{"7":{"format":"default","alignment":"","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false},"8":{"format":"default","alignment":"","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false}},"attributes":{"height":500,"width":456,"class":"media-element file-default","data-delta":"8"}}]]
Shiney was offered Bigg Boss seasons 9 and 10, but the actor turned the offer down as he didn’t want to do any show or movie that was controversial.
Well, no doubt that Bigg Boss isn’t an easy show to do, and any actor would think twice, as giving three months of your life to the show and viewers is not an easy decision to make, though it gives you the fame and recognization .
Today, the contestants who have appeared on the show have become huge names in the entertainment industry.
