Bigg Boss 18, hosted by Salman Khan, is all set to premiere on television with new contestants, new house theme and new twists on October 6. Ever since the new season was announced, several reports claiming possible contestants have been doing rounds on the internet. One such report claimed that TV actor Rithvik Dhanjani is participating in the 18th edition of Bigg Boss. However, the actor who has been part of many reality TV shows in the past refuted such rumours and called it 'false news'.
In an Instagram post, he reshared a post claiming him being a confirmed contestant of Bigg Boss 18 and wrote, ''Not my cup of tea, too much work to get locked up and I like it that way! Requesting the media, please let's not make incorrect headlines with my name, there's enough good things to talk about.''
