‘Third time lucky’ is a perfect phrase that suits Shamita Shetty. Wondering why we are saying so? Well, the Bollywood beauty has been the third time lucky to have got a chance to participate in one of the most popular reality shows, Bigg Boss which airs on Colors TV.
As audiences would know, Shamita is currently seen in Bigg Boss 15 hosted by superstar Salman Khan. She is already hogging the limelight for her fights with the other contestants. While many have been wondering about Shamita’s decision to enter the show amid her brother-in-law Raj Kundra’s controversy, we must tell you that this is not the first time she has participated in the show as a contestant.
For the uninitiated, Shamita had first appeared on Bigg Boss 3 in 2009 which was hosted by Amitabh Bachchan. She walked out of the house midway to attend her sister, Shilpa Shetty’s wedding to Raj Kundra. Other contestants of Bigg Boss 3 were Ismail Darbar, Sherlyn Chopra, Kamal Rashid Khan, Poonam Dhillon, Tannaz Irani, Aditi Gowitrikar, Raju Srivastav, and more. In BB 3, Shamita had proved herself to be a strong contestant, and fans were even left disappointed when she had to leave the show.
Later, the actress again participated in Bigg Boss OTT which was streamed on Voot and hosted by Karan Johar. The Mohabbatein actress chose Raqesh Bapat as her connection on Bigg Boss OTT and became the first contestant to enter the house. In this digital version, she was competing against Raqesh Bapat, Rishima Pandit, Divya Aggarwal, Neha Bhasin, Nishant Bhat, Milind Gaba, Zeeshan Khan, Karan Nath, Pratik Sehajpal, Akshara Singh, Moose Jattana, and Urfi Javed. However, Divya Aggarwal took the trophy home.
Now, yet again, Shamita is back in the house. This time Jay Bhanushali, Vishal Kotian, Tejasswi Prakash, Simba Nagpal, Umar Riaz, Ieshaan Sehgaal, Akasa Singh, Karan Kundrra, Afsana Khan, Miesha Iyer, Pratik Sehajpal, and Nishant Bhat are giving a tough competition to her.
As we know, Shilpa Shetty, who herself has participated in the British version of the show, Celebrity Big Brother, in 2007, and was the winner of the show. It seems Shamita is trying to follow her sister’s footsteps. Her focus is to bring the trophy home.
But will she manage to emerge as the winner? Well, only time will tell!
We wish Shamita good luck!
