Bigg Boss Malayalam fans are eagerly waiting for updates on the show ever since the announcement of the new season. Social media is filled with predictions of the contestants who could be seen in the show. One of the known names in the rumored list is that of tech enthusiast and social media influencer, Shaz Mohamed. However, he has denied the speculations.
In an interview given to a video streaming channel, Shaz revealed that he was approached by the team.
"Yes, they contacted me. But, I said no. The main reason is, I don't watch the show. It is true that you will get some fame when you enter the show. But, the impact of the show is like two extremes. Either everything that you have gained will be lost or you will become something great. It's either of the two. This probability is too risky," he said in the video.
For the unversed, Shaz Mohamed is a popular social media influencer who has one million fan base. His funny video reviews on mobile phones and other gadgets are much loved by tech lovers.
Bigg Boss Malayalam 5 is expected to have its grand launch in March. For the first time in the history of the reality series, the superstar Mohanlal-hosted show will invite commoners as contestants this season.
