Eijaz Khan has exited ‘Bigg Boss 14’, because of his prior work commitment. His fans are shocked and disappointed. In an interview with BT, the actor said, “According to the original schedule, the finale of BB was to be held on January 15, and my contract with them was till then. On the other hand, the shoot of my web series was stalled in February last year and even before I entered the house, there were talks about it getting restarted. As luck would have it, by the time my entry in ‘BB’ was almost finalised, the makers of the series asked for my dates. I chose the reality show at that point, because I was not sure if the shoot of the series would actually commence. But now that it has started, I decided to leave ‘BB’. Main zubaan ka pakka hoon. It was a tough call as I was just four weeks away from the finale and could have been a strong contender.”
When asked if we will be able to see him again in Bigg Boss house, he said “Initially, the makers thought that it would be impossible as it’s too close to the finale. However, they said that they will try something. I have given my blood, sweat and tears to this show, so I feel that my fans will feel cheated if I exit just like that. So, my primary responsibility now is to go back and win it for them,” he replies.
Eijaz is optimistic about Devoleena being his proxy in the show and adds, “I haven’t seen her game, but she seems sorted and says exactly what she wants to. The best part is that she has seen a few episodes of ‘BB 14’, and during the last task, both of us surprisingly chose Nikki Tamboli and gave the same reason without consulting each other,” he shares.
