Zeeshan Khan proved his candidature for the popular reality show Bigg Boss much before his name was confirmed. Weeks after creating drama with his airport appearance in a bathrobe, Zeeshan Khan is all set to participate in Bigg Boss OTT. He has now talked about the troubles he faced during the pandemic-induced lockdown last year, and how he came out of it all.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, Zeeshan said, “The lockdown has taught me a lot. A lot of people went through so much. I, too, went through a lot. However, like everything else that puts you down, you got to put yourself together. And, that is what I did. The lockdown was horrible for me. None of us were working. Financially, I took a hit. For us actors and entertainers, our social media is everything. (During the lockdown) I got my Instagram account hacked and deleted, because of my own stupidity. I was very disappointed, but then I was like ‘you can take my Instagram ID, you cannot take who I am. I am Zeeshan Khan’. I went ahead, created a new account and now I have three to four times the followers that I had before my previous account got deleted.”
He added, “I also saw a lot of good shows going off air. That made me think, as an actor’s life can be very unpredictable. You are at the mercy of someone hiring you. I wanted to do something of my own and then I started my YouTube channel. I think I am a good entertainer and turned the loss (of my social media account) into a win. I started entertaining people, my YouTube channel grew well. Then, after the bathrobe stunt, everything changed. I got offered Bigg Boss. It is the biggest show in India.”
Talking about his wardrobe choice for the show, Zeeshan said, “I have already done a white bathrobe, I have already done a panda suit. I have a lot of ideas, let me give you a hint, I have bathrobes. So, this season is going to be exciting, over the top.”

Sharing his excitement upon getting on the show, Zeeshan said, “ I am getting into Bigg Boss, meeting Karan Johar sir and meeting Salman Khan sir. Who gets this opportunity? I feel really lucky. I want to be the best entertainer in the world, and I am giving my best for it. Karan sir has been entertaining people or so many years. It will be interesting to know what he thinks of all the things that I do. I also have a small story to share with him when I get the time.”
Asked if he was scared of the audience getting to decide punishments for the contestants, Zeeshan said, “Yes, the audience could come up with something mean, but I am not one to shy away from a challenge. Bring it on! I love challenges, what do you have in store for me? Bring it on!”
