A huge reason for the popularity of the Indian television reality show, Bigg Boss depends upon the contestants of the show. While many celebrities look forward to getting such a huge opportunity to be a part of the show, others seem to rather let this opportunity slide as there is too much that a celebrity puts on stake inside the BB house. A similar case happened recently, when Indian television and movie actor, Aamir Ali refused to take part in the upcoming season of Bigg Boss, even after being offered a large amount.

Aamir Ali refuses Bigg Boss 14

While there have been names of many celebrities that are making rounds for the upcoming season of Bigg Boss 14, but the one name that the makers of the show are extremely keen on adding to the show is the Indian television and movie actor, Aamir Ali.

The popular media personality had been approached by the makers for the previous seasons of Bigg Boss 13 as well, but this year the channel has been even more persistent towards bringing the actor on board due to the controversies about his personal life.

A source has informed that the budgets are tight this year but despite that, one of the highest sums has been offered to Aamir Ali.  The source informed that he is a well-known face and while many female contestants have been locked for the show, the popular male contestants are yet to be locked.  Even though the channel has offered a lucrative deal to Aamir Ali, the actor hasn't agreed. Other names that are speculated to join Bigg Boss 14 are that of Pavitra Punia, Nishant Malkani, Nia Sharma, Naina Singh, etc.
