Bollywood actress and politician Urmila Matondkar, known for her iconic roles in the 90s, is making headlines once again. However, this time, it’s not for a new film or political move, but for her rumored entry into Bigg Boss 18. According to reports, Urmila has been approached to be a contestant on the popular reality show hosted by Salman Khan.
This news comes when rumors about Urmila’s personal life are circulating. Media outlets have speculated that Urmila and her husband Mohsin Akhtar, who is 10 years younger than her, are heading towards divorce after 8 years of marriage. The buzz suggests that the split may not be mutual, and the absence of children in their marriage is being cited as a possible reason. However, neither Urmila nor Mohsin has made any public statements to confirm or deny these rumors.
Bigg Boss 18: Will Urmila Join Salman Khan’s Show?
The timing of these divorce rumors seems to have caught the attention of Bigg Boss producers, who are reportedly keen on adding Urmila to the lineup of contestants. Urmila and Salman Khan share a professional connection, having worked together 25 years ago in the film Janam Samjha Karo. If Urmila agrees to join Bigg Boss 18, it would mark her debut as a contestant on a reality show.
While Urmila has been a judge on various reality shows like Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa and DID Supermom, she has never participated in one as a contestant. This makes her potential appearance on Bigg Boss even more exciting for her fans and the show’s audience. However, convincing a star of her stature to join could be a challenge for the producers.
Will Urmila Follow in Pooja Bhatt’s Footsteps?
Recently, Pooja Bhatt’s appearance on Bigg Boss brought a new level of attention to the show. Similarly, Urmila’s participation could boost viewership, as her presence would attract both fans of her Bollywood career and those intrigued by her personal life. The makers of the show are hopeful that they can bring Urmila on board, continuing the trend of featuring big names from the film industry.
Urmila and Mohsin’s Marriage Under Scrutiny
Urmila married businessman and model Mohsin Akhtar in 2016. Their relationship was often praised for breaking the age-gap norm, with Mohsin being a decade younger than Urmila. Despite these rumors of a split, neither Urmila nor Mohsin has addressed the ongoing speculations publicly. Fans are left waiting to see if Urmila will make any official statement regarding her marriage soon.
For now, all eyes are on whether Urmila will say yes to Bigg Boss 18 and give audiences a chance to see her on the small screen again, this time in a more personal light.
