Reportedly, Shehnaz Gill was to be a part of a brand new show where she would hunt for a groom. The show was similar to the popular show Rakhi Ka Swayamvar. The show, titled Shehnaaz Gill Ka Swayamvar, was supposed to be hosted by Paras Chhabra, who is a close friend of Gill. However, the latest report suggested that it is not Shehnaz but Asim Riaz who is the new choice for the show makers.

What is in store for Bigg Boss 13 contestants?

According to reports in a news publication, the makers revealed that the project is in the conception stage. A team has been appointed and people are working to get the creatives right on how to go about with the project. The makers also revealed that Shehnaz is the foremost choice to lead the 'Swayamvar'.

Some reports suggested that the close family and peers have declined any rumours about Shehnaaz being ousted from the yet-to-be-released show and cleared the air by saying that Shehnaz Gill is the sole person to comment on it. The family members are waiting for her to come out of the Bigg Boss house to clear the air. According to reports, she will make a decision on this once Bigg Boss 13 finishes the season. Shehnaz’s brother Shehbaz commented when questioned by a news publication that the channel has approached the manager Kaushal Joshi, but the decision is pending.
