Mumbai: Ever since the new season of the Salman Khan-hosted ‘Bigg Boss’ was announced, several celebrity names have been doing the rounds as probable participants, including Mallika Sherawat.
However, the actress took to her Instagram handle on Monday to clear the air and said that she will never be participating in the reality show.
“Putting an end to all the rumours, I am NOT doing Bigg Boss and NEVER WILL. THANK YOU,” Mallika wrote.
Mallika had graced ‘Bigg Boss 18’ as a guest to promote her film ‘Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video’.
The makers of ‘Bigg Boss’ announced the 19th season with a promo video, featuring the new logo — a multicoloured eye.

According to a report by Screen, ‘Bigg Boss 19’ is expected to kick off with 15 contestants, with 3 to 5 wild card entries joining later.
Some of the celebrities expected to participate include Ram Kapoor and Gautami Kapoor, Dheeraj Dhoopar, Alisha Panwar, Munmun Dutta, Anita Hassanandani, Lataa Saberwal, Ashish Vidyarthi, Khushi Dubey, Gaurav Taneja (Flying Beast), and Apoorva Mukhija, among others.
