In a recent interview, Sunil shared that he had received a call from the makers of Bigg Boss 18 and is currently considering their offer. However, his participation in the reality show is not entirely straightforward due to his full-time job as a police officer. Sunil explained, "I’m currently considering participating in Bigg Boss, but as I work in the police force, getting time off can be a bit challenging. I need to request leave, but our police sports officers are very supportive. They help me with time off for movies, ads, or wrestling events, and they never deny my leave requests."

Hailing from Jammu, Sunil is often referred to as the "Great Khali of Jammu" because of his towering height of 7 feet 6 inches. His journey is as fascinating as his on-screen roles. Sunil serves as a constable with the Jammu and Kashmir Police, balancing his demanding law enforcement career with his passion for wrestling and acting. His entry into the police force was largely due to his impressive achievements in sports like handball and volleyball, which earned him a position through the sports quota.
Sunil’s athletic prowess has not gone unnoticed in the world of professional wrestling. In 2019, he participated in a WWE Tryout, further showcasing his versatility and commitment to his passion. This background, combined with his acting talent, makes him a compelling candidate for Bigg Boss 18, where his presence would undoubtedly add a unique flavor to the show.
As the buzz around Bigg Boss 18 intensifies, Sunil Kumar’s potential participation has piqued the interest of fans. The upcoming season, hosted by Salman Khan, is already creating a lot of excitement, with a list of rumored participants that includes celebrities like Shoaib Ibrahim, Sameera Reddy, Kashish Kapoor, Dolly Chaiwala, Digvijay Singh Rathee, Faisu, Sheezan Khan, Deepika Arya, Isha Koppikar, and Karan Patel, among others. While the show is set to premiere in October 2024, the exact launch date has yet to be announced.
If Sunil does join the show, it will be intriguing to see how he balances his dual careers and navigates the challenges of the Bigg Boss house. His participation would also shine a spotlight on his impressive journey from a police officer and athlete to a recognized actor, further solidifying his place in the entertainment industry. Fans of Stree 2 and viewers of Bigg Boss alike will be eager to see if Sunil brings the same intensity and charisma to the reality show as he did to his role in the film.
