  • 'Bigg Boss 8' gets its first wildcard entry - Ali Quli Mirza
To bring in a wave of change to the ongoing arguments, controversies and quarrels, the house of "Bigg Boss 8" will open doors for the first wildcard contestant of this season in the form of Dubai-based singer-actor Ali Quli Mirza.
 
Mirza is best known for his Arabic songs in Dubai, Britain and other parts of the Indian sub-continent and he will soon be making his Bollywood debut with Kamal Sadanah’s movie “Roar”.
 
He is nervous about his entry into the house that has Sonali Raut, Karishma Tanna, Upen Patel, Soni Singh, Arya Babbar, Diandra Soares, Sushant Divgikar, Gautam Gulati, Praneet Bhat, Natasa Stankovic, Minissha Lamba, Puneet Issar and Pritam Singh as inmates.
 
“'Bigg Boss', this year, has been really unexpected and so I am nervous about how it will work out for me. While it is true that I am familiar with some of the contestants, they have an edge over me since they have already been living in the house for over three weeks now," Mirza said in a statement. 
 
“I am only going inside with the hope of making some new friends. Let’s see how it works out,” he added.
 
The reality show airs on Colors.
