Meet the final 5 contestants of 'Bigg Boss OTT 3'!
The Bigg Boss OTT Season 3 is heating up as it races toward its grand finale on Friday (August 2). Hosted by Anil Kapoor, the show can be streamed exclusively on JioCinema. The competition has intensified following the reported shocking mid-week eviction of YouTuber Lovekesh Kataria and social media personality Armaan Malik, leaving only five contestants in the running for the coveted title. Here's everything about the finalists.
Naved Shaikh aka Naezy; Sana Makbul
Among the finalists is Mumbai-based rapper Naved Shaikh aka Naezy, who gained popularity with his hit song Mere Gully Mein from the Zoya Akhtar-directed 2019 film Gully Boy starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt. He made his film debut with the hit song Birju from Hey Bro (2015). Actor Sana Makbul, recognized for her role as Dr. Aliya Kothari in the TV show Vish, also remains in contention.
