As anticipation builds around the much-awaited sixth season of Bigg Boss Marathi, actor Shreyas Talpade addressed rumours claiming that he would be entering the reality show as a contestant. The reports, which have been doing the rounds on social media, have now been firmly denied by the actor himself.
Bigg Boss Marathi 6 is all set to kick off with a grand premiere on January 11 and fans are eagerly speculating about the list of contestants who will step into the controversial ‘madhouse’ this season. Amid the growing buzz, a report surfaced online suggesting that Shreyas would be participating in the upcoming season.
The claim caught attention and left netizens surprised, given that the actor has largely stayed away from reality television formats.
According to reports circulating on entertainment portals, including Pinkvilla, Shreyas was allegedly set to enter the Bigg Boss Marathi 6 house as a contestant. With curiosity peaking, the actor was contacted to verify the authenticity of these claims. In an exclusive interaction with Zoom, Shreyas set the record straight and dismissed the rumours outright.
Calling the reports false, the Apna Sapna Money Money actor said, “It’s a rarity these days. These are false rumours. Kindly ignore. Unfortunately, actors are the softest of targets and some people will do anything to gain traction.”
