Jason Shah approached for Bigg Boss OTT 3?
For those who are unaware, Jason was one of the wild card entries in the 10th season of Bigg Boss but he had to leave the show due to health issues. However, the actor has not accepted the offer of the third season of Bigg Boss OTT yet even after being offered the show by the makers.
The first season of Bigg Boss OTT was hosted by filmmaker Karan Johar but then Salman Khan replaced him and took charge of the hosting duties just like he does in Bigg Boss.

Earlier, Jason Shah opened up on filming Manisha Koirala's sexual abuse scene in Heeramandi. He was quoted as saying by Hindustan Times, “I was hesitant. The fighter master wanted me slap her in a more realistic manner but I was very careful, I was watching my actions. I even flicked her nose ring off in one scene, it got that close. That’s what I was telling the fight master that if we are not in coordination, I might end up hurting her, and obviously, she is an older woman, so it is my responsibility and I had to take care."
