As Bigg Boss 18, hosted by Salman Khan, kicks off, one of the most talked-about contestants is Nyrraa Banerji, known for her role in Pishachini.

Bigg Boss 18: Nyrraa Banerji Reveals She Was Offered the Show Multiple Times Over 4-5 Years:
Explaining her decision, Nyrraa shared, “I’ve been offered Bigg Boss several times, but back then, I had no experience in reality shows. After participating in Khatron Ke Khiladi, I gained that experience and understood the importance of being vocal and opinionated on shows like this. The audience wants to see how your mind works, and Bigg Boss is the perfect platform to reveal that. I believe I have a good personality that hasn’t been seen yet, and I hope to inspire people through this show.”
Nyrraa also opened up about her peaceful nature and how it contrasts with the drama often associated with reality TV. “I’m a very compassionate person, driven by principles and positivity. I don’t believe in screaming or shouting, which is often considered content in shows like these. I will stand my ground, but I refuse to be hurtful or rude.”
In a nostalgic moment, Nyrraa shared her excitement about meeting Salman Khan again. “Salman is my favorite superstar. I first met him on the sets of my debut film, which was being shot by Priyadarshan while he was filming Dabangg. I’ll definitely remind him of that when we meet at the grand premiere.”
Beyond Bigg Boss, Nyrraa’s career is packed with exciting projects. “I have a web series called Checkmate and a Netflix series releasing after Bigg Boss, plus two films on the way. Unfortunately, I can’t reveal more, but it’s going to be big!”
On a final note, Nyrraa emphasized her intolerance for dishonesty and how she plans to stay true to herself inside the Bigg Boss house. “People often underestimate me based on my looks, but I’m quite strong-headed. I cannot stand lies, and that’s something I won’t tolerate.”
