Karan Veer Mehra continues to enjoy the limelight following his victory in Bigg Boss 18. In a recent conversation, he shared insights into his journey from cricket to acting. He also spoke about missing out on an invite to Vivian Dsena’s party. When asked about the subdued response from fellow contestants when Salman Khan announced his win, he reflected on the moment.
During the discussion, Karan Veer Mehra was asked if it bothered him that only a few contestants applauded his victory. He responded that while the overall reaction was lukewarm, the enthusiasm from a few people stood out. He specifically mentioned Chum, Shilpa, and his sister, whom he met later. At that moment, he didn’t pay much attention to the lack of support, but watching the footage later, he realized the negativity surrounding him. He admitted, “That time, I didn’t realize. Now that I am seeing videos and people are talking bad about me. Apne liye utna bura nahi laga par my mom fell sick watching the show kyunki mere baare mein negative itna. That is bothering me.”
Reflecting on his experience, he questioned why some people held grudges against him. He stated that he had no issues with anyone and never spoke negatively about others. His focus was elsewhere, primarily on his gym routine, leaving little time for unnecessary conflicts.
Discussing his career and aspirations, Karan Veer Mehra acknowledged that hard work is a constant. Though he holds the Bigg Boss 18 title now, he knows another winner will soon take the spotlight. Even after winning two reality shows, he continues to audition for roles. He shared that just before the exclusive interview, he had attended an audition. He emphasized that recognition isn’t guaranteed, and introductions are still necessary.
He said, “I have to go and give auditions for certain things. Jayse mein abhi bhi de raha hu, you know, I’ve won two reality shows; this is my profile (thumbs up gesture) my profile thank you… karke aa raha hu mein abhi bhi.” When asked if he had auditioned that very day, he confirmed it. He noted, “At times, you need to give your introductions, sab nahi dekhta hain na yaar.”
During the conversation, he reflected on his early struggles. However, he doesn’t view them as hardships because he went through them with friends. He recalled giving 32 auditions in a single day, an experience that helped shape his journey.
Karan Veer Mehra’s career has been marked by significant milestones. He transitioned from winning Khatron Ke Khiladi 14 straight into Bigg Boss 18. His acting career began in 2005 with the youth-oriented show Remix. While he has been a prominent face on television, his work extends to Bollywood as well. Originally from Delhi, he has made a name for himself in the entertainment industry, proving that persistence and dedication pay off.
