Ahsaan Qureshi, who was the first comedian to go into the Bigg Boss house as a contestant, recently spoke to Laughing Colours about his experience inside the famous Bigg Boss Season 2 house. He revealed some inside secrets and on-goings inside the Bigg Boss Season 2 house.
Since the recent extension of the Bigg Boss Season 13 to February, the contestants will be paid extra money for the extension, but how much money do these contestants make and how are they are paid, is something that all the viewers are curious to know.
So we asked Ahsaan Qureshi the same and here’s what he revealed, “Bigg Boss asked me what I would charge. I asked them what they would give me. Then they asked me how much do you earn? I told them I do about 2 to 3 shows a month. They agreed to pay me twice that amount, plus the signing amount! I asked some of my friends who had been contestants in the Bigg Boss Season 1 for advice too. My friends Kashmira Shah told me I should definitely go for it, so then I decided to go in.”
The other contestants who were with him in the Bigg Boss Season 2 varied from actors, singer to politicians. The Bigg Boss Season 2 had Ashique fame actor Rahul Roy, Sambhavna Seth, the Helen of Bhojpuri (As Ahsaan likes to call her), Ashutosh, Monika Bedi, Ketki Dave, Diana Panty, singer Debojeet, Rakhi Vijan, Raja Chaudhary and politician Sanjay Nirupam.
The host was Shilpa Shetty and Jade Goody her contestant from the Big Brother show was also a part of the house.
“I was in for a week and I had a good time. However I did not come in the limelight inside the house, because I did not give gaalis, I only did things that were good and all the contestants respected me a lot. I also solved all the fights and arguments in the house. The team was good. I rememberRahul Mahajan’s laughter was famous in that season,” added Ahsaan.
Ahsaan, who had only done comedy before going into the Bigg Boss house, had no idea what he was getting into.
He said, “What I did not understand while I was inside the house was why people were fighting? Raja and Sambhavna fought a lot and once they even threw water on each other’s bed. It was only once I came out of the house I realized that people plan all of it before going into the house.”
What is interesting is that even though Ahsaan has been a contestant of Bigg Boss Season 2, he said that he is very worried about the type of shows like Bigg Boss which people enjoy these days and he wonders why they enjoy them.
“What trouble me is why the people of our country enjoy such shows and how such shows are so popular. It is probably because people enjoy peeping into other people’s homes to see what’s going on.It is a troubling thought,” Ahsaan added as an afterthought.
