After the episode aired, Nia received numerous calls and messages from fans and friends eager for more information about her potential participation. Instead of directly confirming or denying the rumors, Nia addressed the speculation in a candid manner through her Instagram Stories. She mentioned that she wasn't open to answering any questions about her participation in the show, asking people not to call or message her regarding it. She added that she wouldn't be giving any quotes or interviews about it, leaving fans even more curious.

During the finale of 'Khatron Ke Khiladi,' Nia was warmly congratulated by fellow celebrities after Rohit Shetty’s announcement. Despite the excitement, Nia’s reaction was a mix of nervousness and surprise, as she smiled but did not share further details. It’s worth noting that this isn’t Nia’s first encounter with 'Bigg Boss'; she has been approached several times in the past but has always chosen not to participate. The reason for what may be a change of heart this time remains unknown.

As fans await official confirmations, anticipation is also growing for the return of Salman Khan as the host. He has been associated with the show since its third season, and his presence adds to the allure of 'Bigg Boss.' Over the years, the show has consistently been among the most-watched on Indian television, despite occasional fluctuations in its ratings.
