In the last few months, Srivastav has mainly been in the news for personal than professional reasons. The word drumming in the industry is that Srivastav is no longer sought by TV producers as they feel he’s past his prime. Well, that makes him an ideal candidate for Bigg Boss 3. Sources close to the actor say, “Well, Raju has been talking about his desire to do Bigg Boss. The presence of Amitabh Bachchan as host has added to his excitement. Years back, he entered into the industry as an Amitabh dupe. It will be interesting to watch him interact with Bachchan.” When contacted, Srivastav said, “Yes, it’s true that I have been offered Bigg Boss. I haven’t signed as yet as certain terms need to be worked out. I believe Amitabh Bachchan too is keen to see me in the show. In all probability, I might take up the show.” Srivastav was last seen in a special episode of Taarak Mehta ka ooltah chashmah.
