The actress said “When I was called on stage, the panel judges asked me about two of my ex – boyfriends, who participated in Bigg Boss season 13. I was shocked as I didn’t know why they asked me that. They even forgot that one of them, late Siddharth Shukla has passed away. It was a question that came out of context. I didn’t know what to answer. Maybe they wanted people to search about it. I don’t know, but it was highly disappointing”.
Akanksha further said, “I was offered to enter Bigg Boss Season 13 as a wild card entry, but I didn’t accept the offer as I know the focus would have been somewhere else. But, I was taken aback when the question was asked as it had no connection since so many years have passed”.
Well, there is no doubt that Akanksha was coming out as a strong contestant of the show and the audience were shocked with her eviction.
