Shivani Supervisor Bigg Boss Marathi 2: My popularity will threaten other competitors

Shivani Surve Sunday made a prestigious entry into Bigg Boss Marathi 2 as part of "Main Heroine Hoon". After playing a supporting role in Navya, the young actress moved into the Marathi Devyani and Hindi series Jaana Na Dil Se Door.

On his first day at the Bigg Boss Marathi 2 house, Shivani fought over competitor Shiv Thakare. She had even confessed that she was hosting Mahesh Manjrekar, but that she usually does not consider her to be snooty.

Moments before entering the house, Shivani spoke exclusively with indianexpress.com about the choice of the controversial show, his strategy and his best friend, Megha Dhade.

Here are excerpts from the conversation: 19659006] Q. Why Bigg Boss Marathi 2?

Why not? It's such a big show. I was really very excited when they called me for that. Honestly, I have the feeling that only people who are afraid to show off would not want to do it. That's why they stay at a distance. But for me, I'm confident about who I am. And I know that my fans will love me in the series.

Q. Not only the Marathi sector, you are also very much loved by the Hindi television audience. Do you think your popularity will be an advantage in the series?

Absolutely yes. My fans love me and I know that they will support me throughout the show. However, my popularity will certainly become a threat to others. And they will want me out of the series. Let's see how that goes. But I fully trust my loving audience.

Q. Any strategy you planned before entering the house?

I do not know who the others will be and what the situations would be. So, how can I develop a strategy to deal with it? I leave with an open mind and I will take each day as it comes.

Q. There will be difficult tasks to do and housework to do.

(Cut short) I am really prepared for everything. They do not let me in, I jump to go inside! (laughs)

Q. Have you followed the last season of Bigg Boss Marathi?

Of course. Megha Dhade is my best friend and I followed her path. I was so happy that she was a winner.

Q. So, did Megha give you any special advice?

No. On the other hand, I had actually given Megha advice last year. And that's why she wins the show.
