Bigg Boss Kannada 11 contestant Dharma Keerthiraj opens up about his struggles as a star kid, says, "I chase my dreams"

The much-anticipated season of Bigg Boss Kannada saw its sixth contestant, Dharma Keerthiraj, make a grand entry on the stage. With a background deeply rooted in the Kannada film industry, Dharma, son of the renowned actor Keerthiraj, took the opportunity to share his journey, filled with aspirations and challenges, just before stepping into the Bigg Boss house.

Dressed in a confident demeanor, Dharma addressed the audience, reflecting on the struggles he faced despite being a star kid. “Many people think it's easy when you're born into a film family, but the reality is far from that,” Dharma stated. “I have had to carve my own path, chasing my dreams, and proving my worth. It hasn’t been an easy road."

The actor elaborated on how his father’s influence on his life and career began post his 10th standard. While many might assume that being the son of an established actor would automatically open doors, Dharma explained that it came with its own pressures. “I wanted to prove myself and not just be seen as someone riding on my father’s success. That's one of the reasons I decided to be part of Bigg Boss – to show the world who I truly am.”
