Saurabh
Patel was introduced in the show as jodidaar of Shivashish, as the two are
really good friends. Saurabh's introduction video in the very first
episode claimed he was a farmer owning huge amount of land, and having
no connection in the glamour world.
But
media reports revealed that he has faked his identity. As he has been working
as assistant Casting director in BAG Films and Rashmi Sharma productions. He
was a struggling actor too. Infact his ex- colleague confirmed to bollywoodlife.com that
his real name is Sahil Rameshwar Patel. Infact his picture also went viral
where he is seen auditioning.
When
we asked Saurabh about it, he replied “ I have no idea what you all are asking
about? I have just come out from the house. I will read and only then will be
in a position to react. I am a farmer and that’s my reality. I have not worked
as a casting director nor have changed my name. It was always Saurabh. The AV
which you all saw in the first episode is absolutely true and now that I am
out, I will try and share more videos, pictures from my field, house and
city."
When
asked about his future plans, he replied, “ Farming will always be my priority
and I will try to expand it more and more. But yes, I have always wanted to be
an actor and if some nice acting offer come across, I will do that”.
Infact
he also rubbished rumours of Shivahish being a struggling actor and not a
businessman. He said, "I was in the show because of him as I wanted to do
a Bigg Boss stint. He used to keep travelling Mumbai for his business work and
this time finally he spoke to someone and it happened. It’s surprising for me
also if he has tried his hands in acting."
Saurabh
also added, "I am feeling extremely bad that my journey has come to an end
so early. I feel Urvashi should have gone out and not me. Atleast I had
opinions and stuck to them. Urvashi did not think individually and used to get
influenced very easily."
