Bigg Boss 11 housemates call Vikas Gupta 'mastermind' out of jealousy:

Television actor Asha Negi is not just pretty
and talented but also has a positive aura
around her that can bring happiness all
around. Taking it ahead, the actor will now
be seen on Entertainment Ki Raat, where
she will be attempting comedy for the first
time, in a bid to spread laughter.
Indianexpress.com caught up with Asha on
the sidelines of the launch held on
Wednesday, and had a free wheeling
conversation around her, the show and the
most talked about Bigg Boss 11. The actor
has always maintained that she likes
watching the reality show and this year is
no different. Asha had also recently been on
the stage with host Salman Khan while
promoting her new offering.
Talking about the controversial reality
show, Asha, in an exclusive chat shared
"Yes, I am following the show though I
missed on the last few episodes because of
work. I have never followed Bigg Boss so
religiously like I am doing it this time.

When asked about her favourite contestant
this season, the Pavitra Rishta actor said,
"Right now there's no favourite but I do
support Vikas Gupta. Not just because he is
a friend but the way he has been playing
the game is commendable. The entire
house was recently against him and he did
not let it deter him at all. And he is called
mastermind for a reason. I think he is very
intelligent to understand things that no
other housemates can. They have labeled
him mastermind out of sheer jealousy. But I
like the fact he carries the name like a
badge of honour.
Arshi Khan is one of the strongest
contestants on Bigg Boss 11.
With her inimitable charming smile, Asha
added, "I also love watching Arshi Khan. She
is like a breath of fresh air and super
entertaining.
Giving an insight to her participation in
Entertainment Ki Raat, the young actor said,
"I will be my goofy self, who will be the butt
of all jokes. That I think would be USP in the
show. My friends find me funny when I am
the real me, and I hope the audience will
also laugh along. But honestly, I am really
nervous to be on the same stage with these
performers but they have been really
helpful. Dipika (Kakar) and I have done daily
soaps and so people think that they are TV
bahus who are always crying, yeh kya
comedy karengi (how will they do comedy)
but I think we are doing a fine job.
Entertainment Ki Raat will launch on
November 18 and air at 10 pm on Colors,
every weekend. Along with Asha and Dipika,
Karan Wahi, Ravi Dubey, Aditya Narayan,
Mubeen Saudagar, RJ Malishka, Raghu and
Balraj will also been seen tickling the funny
bones.
