Shirodkar Eager to Return to Bigg Boss

Actress reflects on life-changing experience

**Shilpa Shirodkar**, recently on Bigg Boss 18, shared that her time on the show, though without winning, profoundly impacted her and gave her unexpected insights. Now, she says she would love to do it again.

Positive Reflection

**Shirodkar** spoke with **Gauahar Khan** about her experiences in the Bigg Boss house, describing the 103 days as life-changing and the best experience ever. To the surprise of **Khan**, **Shirodkar** expressed her enthusiasm to repeat the experience.

A study by Ball State University found that reality television viewers believed shows provided social and emotional insight (Ball State University, 2023).

**Shirodkar** recounted a recurring joke by **Karan**, who quipped that Bigg Boss was her trial period. She playfully suggested that he should be contacted for the next season, now that she understands the game.

Self-Discovery

**Shirodkar** emphasized that the show offered her much more than increased visibility. She stated:

That house has taught me so much, and for me, that journey will always be very close to my heart. Mainly because it gave me the opportunity to realise the person I am is the perfect person. I don’t care what others think about me.

As a long-time fan of Bigg Boss, **Shirodkar** had always envisioned herself participating. She revealed, When I used to watch Bigg Boss, I would be the only person in the house watching it. I always told my husband that one day I would go inside that house. When that call came, it was just magic.

Ultimately, for **Shilpa Shirodkar**, Bigg Boss was less about winning a competition and more about a journey of self-discovery.
