Bigg Boss 13 fame Asim Riaz in a recent interview has opened up about his bond with the late actor Sidharth Shukla. He even recalled how he was left shocked when he came to know about his sudden death. Asim, who had spent 140 days with Sidharth in Bigg Boss 13 house, shared a frosty relationship with the late actor on the show. Riaz has now revealed that he saw Shukla in his dream on the day he died.
Speaking with RJ Siddharth Kannan, the model said, “He (Sidharth) came in my dream bro, I swear. I knew it before (it happened). I had a call from one of my cousins, Ruhaan called me up, usne mujhe bola bhai news on karna (He asked me to switch on the news), he didn’t tell me because he knows how emotional and how sensitive I am.”
Further, recalling the time he spend with him on the reality show, Asim added, “I have spent 140 days with him in that house and I was really connected because I had no friend outside and aisa connection kisi se hua hi nahi kabhi bhai, matlab ladna toh 4-4 din, hasna toh 4-4 din (I have never had such a connection where we fought for 4 days continuously and then laughed continuously for 4 days).”
For the unversed, Asim and Sidharth started on a good note as they became good friends during their stint on Bigg Boss 13 but later turned into rivals and were at loggerheads.
