The actor says, “I come from a family of achievers, and that’s the lineage I have had. My grandfather, my father and even my brother Rahul are all so well known in the industries that they belong to and in fact are leaders in their own way.  Acting for me has been my passion and my drive and hence I want that when they walk on the street, they are asked ‘Hey you are Shalin’s Father….Brother!”

Speaking about loving a rush the actor says, “Its been quite sometime since I’ve had an adrenaline rush so I guess this is it.  I was in Australia when the makers called me and I am still wondering I have actually said yes to Bigg Boss (Laughs).” The actor had a KGF style entry on to the show and there’s a lot of suspense around his social media going completely blank before his entry.

Coming to the show, BB16 premiered on Colors on October 1. Along with Shalin his year, the controversial house has TV actors Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia, Sreejita De, Sumbul Touqueer, Tina Dutta, Femina Miss India 2020 Manya Singh, director Sajid Khan, popular rapper MC Stan, and musician Abdu Rozik among many others.
