The recently evicted contestant from ‘Bigg Boss’, Hrishant Goswami had been very successful as a model and was looking for a platform to enter in movies, at that time, filmmaker Karan Johar suggested him to take part in the reality show.

 

‘Fear Factor’ was the first choice, but gradually, he decided on Karan’s advice that ‘Bigg Boss’ would serve as a better platform. Hrishant also says that Karan is his family friend and his guidance helped him out.

 

He reveals, “Karan is a family friend, and when I met him, he suggested that I do 'Bigg Boss'. It was very sweet of him to have put me on to someone in Colors, and there was no looking back from there on.”

 

He also reveals the first thing he did after saying good-bye to the ‘Bigg Boss’ contestants, “When I went into the Bigg Boss house, I was in the middle of shifting apartments. I still don't have one of my own and live with my cousin. I met up with the boys, my friends. But I've been so busy with interviews that I hadn't really much time to celebrate and drink to my experience unitl last night. Right now, I'm still recovering.”

 

When asked about Veena Malik and Ashmit’ relation, he simply said, “She is a sweet girl and will remain a good friend. But if she really liked him (Ashmit), even he can't tell. I really don't know you'll have to ask her.”
