'No fun': Shilpa Shinde mocks 'Bigg Boss's new host Anil
Shilpa Shinde, the winner of Bigg Boss 11, has publicly criticized Anil Kapoor's hosting of the reality series's spin-off Bigg Boss OTT 3. During a conversation with the paparazzi, she made a sarcastic comment about Kapoor's debut as host. "Host nahi hai toh mazaa nahi hai. 'Jhakaas' walo ke apne jagah alag hai. Baaki, Bigg Boss bole toh Bhai (There is no fun if we do not have the original host...when it comes to Bigg Boss it's only Salman Khan)."
Kapoor responded to criticism over 'Bigg Boss' hosting
Shinde's criticism is the latest in a series of demands from fans for Khan to return to hosting duties. Meanwhile, Kapoor recently expressed his thoughts on hosting the new season of BB OTT following Karan Johar (Season 1) and Khan (Season 2) in an interview with Hindustan Times. "We're all different people. So the idea is just to be yourself, use your life experiences and the kind of person you are," he explained.
'When you do it, you make it your own...'
In the same interview, Kapoor mentioned, "When I did 24, originally done by Kiefer Sutherland, or The Night Manager, my role originally played by Hugh Laurie, they are world-class actors." "Or when I've done Hindi remakes of films in which Kamal Haasan, Rajinikanth, or Chiranjeevi were the leading men. They have their own style." "But when you do it, you make it your own," he stated.
