Tejasswi Prakash to Nishant Bhat; Bigg Boss contestants who bagged big projects during their stint in the show

Bigg Boss has showered fame, popularity, and a lot more to its contestants over the years. This gives celebrities and common people an incentive to take part in the show. For some contestants, the controversial reality show proved to be a stepping stone for their careers as they got projects while they've been inside the house. Take a look:

2/9

Tejasswi Prakash

Tejasswi Prakash won Bigg Boss 15 and was offered Naagin 6 even before the controversial reality came to an end. On the grand finale day, it was revealed that Tejasswi will be the new 'naagin'. Her fans are eager to see her as the shape-shifting serpent. The actress has already started shooting for the Ekta Kapoor show.


3/9

Nishant Bhat

Nishant Bhat is another well-known name today. The choreographer made everyone groove to his routines. The dancer-choreographer, who has appeared on shows including Jhalak Dikhla Jaa and Dance Deewane, has now become a household name. He made history by becoming the first choreographer to appear on Bigg Boss, and hasn't looked back since. He also expressed his wish to judge dance reality shows in the future. Seems like, his wish come true as he has been offered to judge 'Dance Deewane Junior'.

4/9

Simba Nagpal

Simba Nagpal was lauded by the host, Salman Khan for his game in Bigg Boss 15. He was evicted in a few weeks of the show but made a strong bond with fellow contestants. Simba has bagged Naagin 6 and will be seen romancing Tejasswi Prakash in this fiction show.

5/9

Shehnaaz Gill

Bigg Boss 13 contestant Shehnaaz Gill wowed audiences with her chubby appearance and attractive personality. She was offered Mujhse Shaadi Karoge, a swayamwar-related show during her stint. In Mujhse Shaadi Karoge, many guys came to impress her. However, the show ended after a few weeks.

6/9

Asim Riaz

Bigg Boss 13's runner-up Asim Riaz became quite popular after emerging as the first runner-up of the show. The model-rapper-actor has a massive fan-following on social media. The young lad was numerous music videos while he was locked up inside.

7/9

​Paras Chhabra

Paras Chhabra was a contestant of Bigg Boss 13 and appeared in Mujhse Shaadi Karoge along with Shehnaaz Gill. Several girls had entered the competition to impress Paras but the show did not live up to people's expectations. Currently, he is dating his Bigg Boss 13 co-contestant, Mahira Sharma.

8/9

Hina Khan

Bigg Boss 11 contestant Hina Khan took a chance and quit 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' to appear on the show. Seems like, it worked out in her favour as she got several offers of music videos during her stint in the show.

9/9

​Sunny Leone

Sunny was a part of Bigg Boss 5 where she entered as a debutant. The controversial reality show proved to be a stepping stone for her as she went directly to Bollywood after BB. When she was inside the house, popular filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt offered her 'Jism 2'.
