Raqesh Bapat, who entertained masses in the Bigg Boss OTT house, recently made a grand entry in Bigg Bigg Boss 15. He came as a wild card contestant along with Neha Bhasin. The actor is excited to reunite with Shamita Shetty. Talking about the same, he said, “I am really excited to join Bigg Boss 15 and looking forward to reuniting with Shamita Shetty. I have been seeing her really sad inside the house and she really misses the OTT connections as we all bonded really well. Here people are just playing games and not connecting with each other. Hence, she is finding it hard to survive in the house without any strong bond. I hope she doesn’t faint with joy after seeing me in the house. Neha and I, both are going so it will be a double whammy for her. I am waiting to see her reaction.”
When asked why he opted for Bigg Boss 15, he mentioned, “I was offered Bigg Boss 15 and they wanted me to join the show from the beginning. However, I wanted some time off. I needed time to be stronger as a player. Also, I had some prior commitments. Now, I am free so I opted to join. I have been following the show and now I feel I am prepared to go in. This time I am going to be honest about certain things. I am also going to voice my opinion. Earlier I was shy but I have learnt a lot from Bigg Boss OTT. That show made me a stronger person today. Hence, I am prepared and ready to face the challenge.”
On an end note, Raqesh revealed his opinion about other housemates, he shared, “None of the contestants is my favourite. I liked Simba as he is a calm player. However, recently he had a nasty fight with Umar. So all the contestants are unpredictable. I never thought I would get such a positive response after I came out of Bigg Boss OTT house. The ShaRa fans are anticipating my entry. This is very overwhelming.”
Good luck Raqesh!
