Gia Manek, alias Gopi Bahu will not be entering 'Bigg Boss 14'

Bollywood actor and popular reality TV show host Salman Khan is gearing up to host the grand premiere of Bigg Boss 14 on Saturday, October 3.

Like every year, this time the show will also see a slew of celebrities, ranging from Rubina Dilaik, Abhinav Shukla, to Jasmin Bhasin, Nishant Malkhani, Eijaz Khan, among others from various backgrounds.

However, Gia Manek, popularly known as Gopi bahu from Saath Nibhana Saathiya, will not be entering the show anymore, even though she was in talks with the showrunners about her entry, reported Pinkvilla. 

A source informs, "Gia was all set to enter the house but her deal with the channel did not work out. Gia would've been quite the addition and with an anticipation about her camaraderie with Nishant Malkhani, the buzz would've definitely picked up."

The source continued, "However, Abhinav Shukla's entry will definitely fill that void especially since Rubina and Abhinav share a great chemistry. The duo was perhaps the last ones to give their nod for the show."

Speaking of the reality show, Bigg Boss will air at 10:30 PM on weekdays and 9 PM on Saturday and Sunday. Salman will be returning as a host for the eleventh season this year and during the launch, he mentioned that it will be a dream come true season for anyone.

He also mentioned that this season will have a BB Mall, BB restaurant corner, BB spa and more inside the house.
