Talking about how Santosh Chaudhari decided to participate in Bigg Boss Marathi 3, his wife Yogita said, "He got the opportunity to enter the Bigg Boss Marathi house overnight. He never watched television in his life because he was always busy. My daughter and I would watch Bigg Boss Marathi, but he was so busy with his recordings, music albums and shows, that he never got time to watch previous seasons. He did not even know what had happened in previous seasons."

My husband has health issues. He has blood pressure and diabetes. He hates salt. When he is at home, he even asks us not to add salt to his meal. He has his meal without salt but I am shocked how he ate a bowl of salt for the task. The housemates were crying when he was eating that mixture, and we were also crying a lot at home. I am so proud of him.

I feel Akshay played well. He had given his 100 percent for the task, but I think it's easy to mix any ingredients and make a recipe, but it isn't easy to eat that mixture. Daadus ate the mixture, and that is why he was a deserving winner.

I guarantee one thing that he would win the audience's hearts. I don't know how he will play in the future, but I am sure that he will never hurt someone. He is compassionate and is soft-hearted.

We see groupism in the house. Mira Jagganath and Gayatri Datar are planning hard, but Daadus is not there in anyone's group. He is playing his game individually and winning hearts. I feel groups should not be there because towards the end, only one can be the winner.
