Kanika Mann shares the myth she wants to break by entering Salman Khan’s Bigg Boss 20
Actress Kanika Mann, recognized for her work on TV shows and Punjabi films, has entered the reality competition Bigg Boss 20 hosted by Salman Khan. In her first opportunity to participate in a reality show, Kanika aims to dispel the widespread belief that actors join Bigg Boss solely to revive their careers. In an exclusive interview with SCREEN, the actress shared her thoughts on the decision to compete in the show.
Kanika revealed that she has been apprehensive about captive reality shows in the past, but sees this opportunity as a chance to experiment and explore the world of reality television. She elaborated, "It is an experiment for me. This show gives you everything - love, drama, fame; it opens so many doors for you."
With a successful career in the pipeline, Kanika's participation in Bigg Boss 20 stems from her desire to challenge the prevailing notion that celebrities resort to the show only when their careers require a boost. She explained, "People have a myth that celebs do Bigg Boss for a boost in their career. They want to revive their career, get massy fame.
For me, things are going really nicely. One of my films is releasing on the 25th of September. My next release is in January. Recently, Naagin 7 was a huge success, so I wanted to show that even when things are working in your career, you can still do Bigg Boss."
Kanika's intention is to remain focused on the present, viewing the show as a social experiment that allows her to disconnect from the outside world and gain a better understanding of herself. By entering the reality show during a flourishing career, she hopes to push her limits and test her capabilities.
