The actor, who was recently seen in Karan Johar’s Prime Video reality series The Traitors, shared his honest views about why he would never be a part of Bigg Boss.

Sudhanshu Pandey’s Take On Bigg Boss
In an interview with one of the media houses, Sudhanshu Pandey revealed that he receives multiple calls every year inviting him to join Bigg Boss. However, the actor made it clear that the show is not his cup of tea. “I get calls every year. I don’t know where they come from, but I get calls from many places for Bigg Boss. I have complete respect for those who do this show. But I don’t belong there,” Sudhanshu shared. The actor pointed out that there’s a major difference between The Traitors, the reality show he recently did and Bigg Boss, both in concept and environment.

Explaining the contrast, Sudhanshu said, “In The Traitors, you play within a certain boundary. When you go back to your room, you have complete privacy, you’re not on camera. The next morning, you come back and continue. But Bigg Boss is different, you have a camera in your face 24/7.” He further mentioned that he doesn’t even watch Bigg Boss because of what he calls its toxic atmosphere.

The actor further said, “I feel there’s so much toxicity on that show that someone like me couldn’t exist in such a space. If I sense that people are toxic, I simply walk away. That’s just who I am.” Sudhanshu Pandey’s statement took an amusing turn when he said that he might consider joining Bigg Boss, but only under one condition. “If they ever bring saints and sages to Bigg Boss, I’ll definitely go. But I don’t think that’ll fetch TRPs,” he laughed. “The show gets TRP because of fights and arguments, the Mahabharata that happens there is what people like to watch.”
